1963 Fox giant. Costing more than $70 million, it nearly bankrupted Fox at the time.

The film lasted for more than 4 hours, and it was really dizzy to watch. Elizabeth Taylor became a big hit with this film.

feeling not bad. Especially the sets and Cleopatra's costumes, so extravagant, so grand, all shot on location, really bankrupted Fox.

The plot is the same as the plots of Shakespeare's "Hero Brutus" and "Cleopatra".

The main thing is to look at the picture, which is a bit similar to the feeling of "Ben-Hur".

    The budget is spent on clothing and scenery, which is exquisite and luxurious. It can be used as a 4-hour epic feature film. The background completely depends on the war and turmoil, but only a very small amount of space is given to show the war scene. There is only one siege and one naval battle, and there is no shocking and fierce power. The grand scene is only in Egypt. The ten-minute ceremonial ceremony when the Queen arrived in Rome. It is closer to Shakespeare's court drama, which mainly focuses on indoor dialogues and focuses on expressing the feelings between the protagonists. This trend is more obvious in the second half, especially when Octavian keeps yelling and screaming, and the performance style is completely dramatic.
