Experience Rome in
52 BC, a cosmopolitan metropolis of a
million defined by extraordinary wealth,
violent cruelty, untold filth, dog-eat-dog
competition and massive poverty. Wives
are coveted, power corrupts and murderers
go free in the magnificent series ?as
extravagant, enticing and chaotic as
Rome itself ? (USA Today). Julius Caesar has conquered Gaul and
returns after eight years to a Republic whose foundations have been
eaten away by corruption and excess. Two soldiers, Lucius Vorenus
and Titus Pullo unwittingly become entwined in a fierce battle that
becomes the vivid centerpiece of this acclaimed drama co-produced
by the BBC and HBO. Starring Polly Walker (Emma, Patriot Games),
Ciar?n Hinds (Road to Perdition) James Purefoy (A Knight?s Tale),
Lindsay Duncan (Under the Tuscan Sun), Kevin McKidd (Nicholas
Nickleby) and Ray Stevenson (King Arthur). Recommended for mature
