      Records of the Burning City of the Tyrant-"Faith is Built on the Foundation of Love"

The beautiful girl has experienced a catastrophic love between life and death, which is the main line of Xian Keweizhi's novel "Where are you going?", which is depicted in the film.

      Did Nero really set the city of Rome on fire?

      The movie once again told me that history is written by victors.

      The film is based on the long historical novel "Where Are You Going" published in 1896 by the Polish writer Shankowitz. Poland is a country deeply influenced by Catholicism. Writers who grew up in such an environment will naturally portray Christianity as a positive image in the content of their novels, and they will become villains when they sing, burn Rome on fire, and persecute Christians if...

      Thought of Nero Burning City

      In 1951, Melvin Leroy and Anthony Man co-directed "The Record of the Burning City of Tyrants", with the male and female protagonists starring Robert Taylor and Deborah Cole, respectively. This movie vividly shows the primitive instinct and impulse of a tyrant. When a tyrant does a certain amount, he is a cruel beast. I have always felt that the greatest ability of a tyrant to govern the people is to allow people to give him three shouts of long live after endless torture, fraud and...

      Death, where is your sting? !

      Originally known as "Where Are You Going, Man", it is among one hundred masterpieces and is worth collecting.
      From today's point of view, the picture of this movie certainly cannot be compared with today's. However, the film wins in the wonderful story.
      The handsome male protagonist fell in love with the beautiful female protagonist, and the female protagonist not only looks beautiful, but also has a beautiful soul. In the age of Nero, the beauty of the heroine was as noble and holy...

      The pomp of the film should have belonged to a grand masterpiece at that time, and the description of the details is not boring. At the end of the play, Peter's cane bloomed with bright flowers, as if people could see the fruit of the Holy Spirit, some tenfold, some a...

      Like "The Ten Commandments" and "Ben-Hur", historical epic films were produced in the early 1950s, which had a very subjective beautification of Christianity and lost the rigor of historical films. The original novel of the same name is "Where Are You Going" by Xian Keweizhi, the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1905. This gentleman is the author of the elementary school text "Little Musician...

    Movie quotes

    • Tigellinus: Rome is a sea of flames. It burns from rim to rim.

      Emperor Nero: You hear that? That is my epic. To change the face of the world. To demolish and create, and create anew. Now, to your chariots, all of you. You shall come with me to the funeral pyre. This very night you shall hear my dirge over burning Rome. Its flames shall carry me higher than the gods.

    • Emperor Nero: I do not ask favors, I confer them.

    • Emperor Nero: [about the angry roman mob] Petronius, you're not like these other people. They think that you're their friend. Speak to them, make promises. Grain, oil, wine.

      Petronius: They will take them, Nero, without your permission.
