When I first watched "Rome", it really shocked me. It is too real, more than any historical film. Its rough, bloody, barbaric, and erosive are very fascinating. The bloody violence and erotic chaos in it. It’s also very vigorous. This sense of reality is not only the superficial life scenes and costume props, but also the state and thoughts of the characters, unlike many historical films that make people feel that modern people wear ancient costumes, borrowed from ancient people. My own business, in my opinion, "Rome" expresses a higher level of reality. In the play, two ordinary Roman soldiers are virtualized, which expands the field of vision to the lower level. This is also a place that I admire very much, letting "Rome" get rid of the fate of court drama. The most interesting plot is the original drama of ancient Rome, which is very similar to the street live newspaper drama before liberation, but more crude and erotic.
Another reason I am looking forward to is that I was reading the "Civil War" written by Caesar before. This book happened to be about this period of history. I am a classical military enthusiast. I think, assuming the director can reproduce the "Civil War" completely "The content of" is definitely very enjoyable. Unfortunately, I am disappointed. The war dramas in "Rome" were also learned from my "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". It’s a production cost of 100 million.
Having said that, "Civil War" is very suitable for restoring the wars of ancient Rome. The book records a lot of specific details, even to the point where it is verbose and meticulous. I think this is also an ancient war film in Europe and America. People have a foundation for the more real reasons. And our historical dramas like to jokingly, that’s because our history books don’t have any details. Whenever we write about fighting, it means "XX sends XX to hit it, cuts XX and returns", "XX sieges the city in February, and leaves without fail". To further muddy the water, it would be "the two generals fought for three hundred rounds before the battle", which is totally unreliable. From this I think of Wu Yusen’s troubled "Red Cliff". He claims to have a real sense of history. It is really challenging. "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" wrote the battle of Chibi with punctuation and only used 359 in total. This word is a test of the screenwriter’s imagination.
But our history books also have an advantage, that is, they like to record celebrities' remarks, which can easily be turned into an indoor drama. I just watched an episode of "The Reign of Zhen Guan", which can reflect this style very well. How do you think it looks like the disguised version of "Hundred Schools of Forum".
