Best Movies Set in Rome

[Uwe Bahr]

Avete omnes,

I want to add two films that catch the spirit of the time IMHO, too (very good point about Brian, Matthew, I second that):

1. "The Investigation" aka "The Inquiry" with Keith Carradine as investigator Titus Valerius Taurus and Harvey Keitel as Pontius Pilatus.

2. "Masada" aka "The Antagonists"- one of my favorite ones with the unforgettable Peter O'Toole as Flavius Silva and Peter Strauss as his adversary Eleazar Ben Yair. For me spine-staking when legion X parades below of the rock in the glow heat of the desert and the liticens make their announcements.

... and sorry, I read Your comments about the film, about its bad story and bad story-line and the other things :oops: :

3. I must confess that I really like "Alexander" by Oliver Stone. Because of the arms and armory, because of the film music when the Gaugamela battle starts, because of the inclusion of the historical advisor, who urged Mr. Stone non-negotiable to let him ride with Alexander in full armor within the film, because of Angelina Jolie and more because of Rosario Dawson (Roxane hock: !!), because of the fine buildings ...
