Synopsis: Unlike many Hollywood movies of the same period
(Cleopatra, Ben-Hur, Fall of the Roman Empire, etc) this one is almost
perfect in the historical accuracy sence. They used the latest
archeological data available at the time (Trajan's column) to show
Roman legions in their glory. Cinematography is great. I've heard they
used something like 5,000 extras to create battle scenes. Unlike its
sequel (Collona), this movie is a masterpiece for everyone who likes
cinema and ancient history. I think that if it would be released in
the USA it would be nominated for Oscar. Its a shame that this video
is hard to find and is not available in major stores. |

Synopsis:
The Crucifixion of Christ seen more from a
political and historical point of view than a spiritual one. This is
the most depressing film on Jesus Christ that I already viewed. Not
only the most depressing, but I force (I don't eat Passion of the
Christ of Mel Gibson, it is clear). Until today I don't understand
which was the intention of the producing of do a film as this,
different from all the other films on Christ done already. Here in
this film Jesus (Chris Sarandon) it is just shown as human man, and
no divine, that it is determined until the end in accomplishing
his/her mission. It is also with physical lines (little accepted by
most of the people) like Jesus it was very probably: a brunet man,
of dark brown eyes, of rustic appearance, and not of hair blond or
brown clear, of delicate face and of blue eyes as most imagines, in
short, in this film Jesus is shown as a natural man from Palestine
of the first century of ours was and not with European lines, as
they were Franco Zeffirelli's Jesus in "Jesus of Nazareth" and of
"King of Kings." And he was not shown like a solemn Jesus, reverent
as it was in the other films, but a more human Jesus totally naked
of any divinity. The same I say of Last Supper scenes and prayer in
the garden of Gethsemani. In the scenes of the judgment, of the
flagellation, Jesus is treated with such a ferocious hate shown
never in other films. Jesus is viewed as somebody that has be
punished severely and dead the more quickly in a more intense way
than in other films. I remember of the scene, in that Caiaphas says
Jesus soon at the end of the judgment: "And you don't forget that
you are a Jew! " It is also of the scenes In that king Herod says
for Jesus: "You are not a king of anything!!! Monarch of anybody!!!
That more ridiculous king you would be!!!! " And all make fun of
Jesus. Before "Passion of the Christ" of Mel Gibson, this had been
the most violent film on the last of Jesus that it had already
viewed. In this film Jesus is treated with end hate, contempt and
ridiculed in such a cruel and merciless way that he left me very
impressed and it finishes completely defeated, treaty as the vilest
and despicable of all the criminals. I didn't like nor a little of
this film. This film is very depressing, revolting and sad... |

България по времето на хан Крум (803 - 814г.). През този период тя е
третата в Европа държава по територията и военна мощ след Византия и

крадците и насилниците. Сред приближените на хана се заражда
недоволство. Двама от тях организират убийството му, но не успяват и
избягват във Византия. С тяхна помощ византийският император Никифор І
предприема поход срещу българите. Във Върбишкия проход се завързва
решаваща битка. В нея загива самия император. Убит е и един от
синовете на Крум. Спечелвайки победата, Крум решава да води преговори
за мир. |
