A film that condenses the intertwining of Cleopatra and the ancient Roman Empire

"The Crowd" Lille Pen always cites important events about ancient Rome. Can't hold back. I just found a four-hour movie like this. Thinking that I should be able to complete the approximate incident... (covers face

The rush is not as detailed as a real documentary, but it is precisely because it has the beautification of a movie that it can keep myself interested in watching it.

Not really long. How can the history of the decades be described in four hours.

The feeling described in the movie gives me the feeling: Except for Caesar, Octavian and Octavian have always been both wise and capable. The former defeated many enemies, but finally lost to his own impatience and self-confidence; the latter gave Rome two hundred years of peace. Whether it is for themselves or really for the people. The result is always a happy one.

Yan Houkong has ambition, but not enough resourcefulness to perfect her grand plan

Anthony, the hero of the world, was finally a deserter of love, the moment he saw the Queen's ship sail away. No subordinates, no honors, only those who love are moving away from themselves, desperate to catch up with her.

Three stars for a starting point that would rather watch a real history.

    50 years commemorative edition, more than 4 hours. This film is still the highest-invested movie in history. The 60-year-old 44 million US dollars is equivalent to the current 2.2 billion yuan. Although Fox was almost bankrupt at the time, it turned out to be back 10 years after the film’s release. Hollywood movies made a profit. The model can withstand the test. Taylor made a sky-high price of 1 million US dollars that year, and finally got 7 million US dollars through a lawsuit. It seems to be a conscience price today.

    Sitting down in the cinema for nearly four hours was really overwhelming, and I almost fell asleep several times. The plot setting has a lot of slots. Richard Burton's performance of Anthony has been complained by friends n times, but the real crowd, the resplendent sets and costumes, and Taylor's purple eyes are still quite ecstasy~~

Cleopatra quotes

  • Theodotos: May I speak? You know that Achilles is trapped... between your own legions and the armies of Mithradates. To send His Majesty to fight them may mean his death.

    Julius Caesar: An occupational hazard for those who will be king.

  • Julius Caesar: This is opposition of a different sort. They weave it cleverly, lightly, like a cobweb. You know what happens when cobwebs are not regularly swept away.
