I finally started watching "Rome", which has been refrigerated in the computer for a long time. It is a very good historical drama. I didn't know that HBO could make such a drama. I secretly and evilly thought that maybe it was because the BBC also participated. . . In fact, it is undeniable that the television culture in the United States is very developed, but it is really embarrassing that the ancient history made by Americans who were only two hundred years old can have such a state. . (The so-called "epic" movies we've made in the past five thousand years are as bad as Promise, and the heroes are not mentioned. However, there are still occasional good works in TV series.)

In fact, I am as lazy as I, and I take "life is stillness" as the creed , although watching dramas is my favorite, but the textual results such as comments and impressions are generally only possible after a long period of time, and there are very accidental stimuli. But today, when I reached the tenth episode, there was a small detail that triggered me. Seeing that Urenas, who used to be loyal and quaint, was suddenly chosen by Caesar as a local magistrate. Glancing at his wife and agreeing? Maybe the plot is far-fetched, and another thought may be a powerful mockery of human ambivalence! The next thing is even more meaningful. The centurion of the 13th Legion, who was once popular in the battlefield, stood on the stage of preaching and finally got rid of the predicament of no one, and passionately expressed his love and praise for Caesar. I still admired it a little. I felt shocked, but was shocked by the old man who came out to remind me to back the manuscript. . Oops. . Then the dissident, who was very proud at first, was later violently dragged away by the "security guard" who was hiding in the crowd. . It's all embarrassing. .

This is a historical drama with politics, violence, and eroticism as the key words, and it is from the perspective of a small person who never gets tired of using it. In fact, I have the mentality of appreciating and learning. So at the beginning I observed every detail of politics between the Senate and the Roman citizens with admiration, but today I was beaten. . . What politics, in fact, the true meaning of politics is violence. What equality, in fact, power is the truth. There were a lot of hinted details before, for example, to say that he was defending the Republic, but he was actually Caesar who laid the foundation of the Roman Empire for future generations, such as Cicero who fell with the wind, such as those bloody scenes, such as Egypt. The elders seep their faces. . . But I have been pretending to turn a blind eye, wanting to believe what I thought I should believe, but the truth of the matter cannot allow me to turn a blind eye, it is so cruel.

I admit that it is easy for me to be arbitrary and irrational, but the fact is that the republic of thousands of years ago, which was hailed as the best society, cannot last and is not necessarily true, and can we still choose today? What should I choose?

    The first season is over. I liked the first half, and the second half was a bit laggy. However, looking forward to the second season.

    Look at Vorenus and Pullo, good friends who love each other and kill each other! (Error) Well, only Vorenus, who is incomprehensible (actually, he really didn’t do anything bad, why he is so bitter) Pullo who was watching yelled and saw Lu Wangyou. Pullo is the heaviest friend, the cutest and most damn lucky guy I have ever seen! Lucky is ur middle name! PS. Dawei in the small house is so handsome
