    The film is based on the 1905 novel of the same name by Xian Keweizhi. The male protagonist is Robert of "Blue Bridge", but his limelight is completely covered by Emperor Nero (that is, the pineapple detective in "The Massacre on the Nile"). Nero alone propped up the entire film, from the great fire of Rome to the persecution of Christians all the way to the climax, with various epic scenes constantly, and the core spirit is to promote traditional Christian values. This 1951 film started the...

    The 171-minute luxurious masterpiece is set against the backdrop of the ancient Roman Empire. The scenes are spectacular, the costumes are gorgeous, but the rhythm is slow. There was a silent version in Italy in 1913, but this one is more worthy of appreciation. It is said that Sophia Loren and Elizabeth Taylor played soy sauce in the film, but I can't find it at all. After watching "Spartacus" and this movie, I like Peter Ustinov more and...

    The Burning of the City by the Tyrant, the Fall of the Roman Empire, and the Gladiator are all three-hour masterpieces. It's better than a Gladiator. Old movies can only be viewed at double speed. The rhythm and amount of information in this film are better than those of The Fallen Record. It is inexplicable that the heroine falls in love with the hero instantly, and the missionary miracle appears slightly dramatic. The persecution of Christians, the portrayal of Nero and Bocconi is wonderful,...

    Nero, born in AD 37, ascended the throne at the age of 17 and died at the age of 31. Originally a half-baked 2B literary and artistic youth, he actually became an emperor. He was inflated by power and became crazy and absurd, so he was able to commit those tyrannical and outrageous...

    Did Nero really set the city of Rome on fire?

    The movie once again told me that history is written by victors.

    The film is based on the long historical novel "Where Are You Going" published in 1896 by the Polish writer Shankowitz. Poland is a country deeply influenced by Catholicism. Writers who grew up in such an environment will naturally...

    Records of the Burning City of the Tyrant-"Faith is Built on the Foundation of Love"

    In the first century AD, under the preaching of Paul, Peter and others, more and more poor people from the lower class believed in Christianity and were brutally persecuted. A young Roman aristocratic officer and a hostage were treated as a daughter by the guardian. The beautiful girl has...

Quo Vadis quotes

  • Petronius: It is not enough to live well. One must die well.

  • Petronius: [in his dying letter to Nero] To Nero, Emperor of Rome, Master of the World, Divine Pontiff. I know that my death will be a disappointment to you, since you wished to render me this service yourself. To be born in your reign is a miscalculation; but to die in it is a joy. I can forgive you for murdering your wife and your mother, for burning our beloved Rome, for befouling our fair country with the stench of your crimes. But one thing I cannot forgive - the boredom of having to listen to your verses, your second-rate songs, your mediocre performances. Adhere to your special gifts, Nero - murder and arson, betrayal and terror. Mutilate your subjects if you must; but with my last breath I beg you - do not mutilate the arts. Fare well, but compose no more music. Brutalize the people, but do not bore them, as you have bored to death your friend, the late Gaius Petronius.
