No one could
resist the coming of Julius
Caesar as he returned home to
destroy Marc Anthony and bring
his mother to his will. Rome's
addictive portrayal of a time
when the power of men were
considered fearful and God like,
is truly a masterpiece of
imagery and cinematography.
Set in ancient
Rome before the birth of
Christianity, the Republic was
existent and prevalent in the
world, very commonly known to
the people; the poor and
enslaved who risk death if not
pay taxes. People who would die,
fallen in the middle of the
street only to be disposed of in
a nearby pond or river. We're
thieves were made and survival
of the fittest broadly
encompassed everyone, from the
peasant riddled with sores, dirt
and contagious fever to the
richly-robed empire; infantry
and corruption, passion and
infidelity were widespread
behaviors un-favored but
rampant.
