      Splendid mountains and rivers, but fell to the enemy

      Heraclius: "Look again, this beautiful mountain and river, unfortunately she has fallen into the hands of the enemy"

      In the city of Rome, when it was first established, although the power was weak and survived among the Latinum and Etruscans, every Roman citizen could see the city of Rome day and night. When the arrogant little Tarquin was expelled from the city of Rome, he found the leader of the Etruscan alliance—Polsena. Bolsena sent troops to Rome...

      The ancient version of "Gladiator"

      Rome is to the West what the Han and Tang Dynasties were to China. It is also the eternal spiritual home of the Westerners, so the discussion of it will never stop. In the film, I feel that I am always in a scene of cold wind and bleak snow, as if Rome has never had spring and summer. In fact, I think it is a metaphor, a metaphor that the Roman Empire has come to a cold winter and a strange road, and the mighty army can't. Cover up the hidden dangers of the flowers...

      Rome is a world, East Asia is but an emirate

      A history of Emperor Conrad, although fictional, did indeed decline at that time. So it doesn't matter if you make a little fake for the beauty of the film. The film fits in with Gibbon's The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire in many ways. There is no more controversy!
              What I am more concerned about is the important difference between the Roman world and the Han emirates. I deeply sigh that the civilization of the Roman era, although it is in the stage of decline and decline,...

      Research on the authenticity of historical films "The Fall of the Roman Empire" - 50%

      The Fall of the Roman Empire

      First of all I'm sure this movie is an excellent epic, with the war scenes, power struggles and Commodus portrayed very well. However, a large number of places in the film that are inconsistent with historical facts will confuse people, and serious places will be disgusting.

      Selected objects

      1 Commodus (the Roman emperor at the end of the second century AD, reigned from 180 to 192)
      2 Aurelius (the philosopher emperor, the father...

      «The Fall of the Roman Empire»

      Critics and short reviews included ""The Fall of the Roman Empire" blames an incompetent tyrant for the fall of Rome" and "I'm a gladiator anyway, so I hate this movie" and so on. The first kind of comment is that the commentator only sees the movie clip and makes a big imagination. However, at the 4:16 point of the movie, it says that the reason for the fall of Rome "Had not one cause, but many" "This is not one thing, but a continuation of More than 300 years," the comments from...

      Watching this kind of war movie will simplify human nature to a very intuitive desire for aggression and sexuality If it's awkward, it should be great if it is made into a play and an...

      At first I thought this movie was awesome, but after a while I thought it was tmd "The Godfather"? ? The feeling of it plummeted, and in the end I was disgusted to death, what a jb thing. But the last narration saved the movie, so that now I think it was a good movie in retrospect. Ha...

      The historical epic of that year, the costumes and scenery are amazingly rich. A strong drama with contemporary values ​​as the core, the normalization of selling rights is more realistic. Historically, Marcus Aurelius personally passed on Commod, and the film sets levis and lucia as the spiritual successors of the old emperor, which is also the producer's nostalgia for the golden age. The two male protagonists of the three-act drama are similar to the prince's revenge. There are too many...

      Lucilla: Known and not known? How can that be?

      Livius: I'm not sure how it was. But I know now.

    • Livius: You were always with me. Everywhere. I took you into battle with me. You were with me in the gold fields. But you know this.

      Lucilla: Only this. I know this. You were with me, too. Always!

    • Lucilla: In these buildings, you store all the writings of the great men of Rome. I am leaving - with my husband - and soon I'll be far from this city. Now I ask that you guard these, the "Meditations" of my father, Marcus Aurelius. Whatever else happens, in the days to come, let not these be destroyed. For this - is Rome.
