Editorial Review:

Product Description:
** Imported from South Korea *** Original English language *** Cleopatra hasn't been on the throne of the pharoahs of Egypt very long when Julius Caesar pays a visit. Caesar finds the prospect of romance more tempting than he expected, since Cleopatra is a rare woman who is bright as well as beautiful. And for Cleopatra, a friendly relationship with the most powerful man in the world may pay dividends in the future.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - a best buy
The video quality is excellent, had no difficulty in removing subtitles. An excellent movie with excellent cast and I recommend it to any and all who appreciate an old movie that can't be beaten by anyone today.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Idiotic portrayal of a great queen
I see other favorable reviews for this film and I am flabbergasted. When Cleopatra met Caesar she was a woman of 20-21 not a child. If Cleopatra were to see how she is played in this film she would roll over in her tomb. Her "nurse" tells her she needs a bath everyday.

"before Caesar I was foolish and did what I like - now that Caesar has made me wise ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Flora Robson!
The great villain-actress Flora Robson certainly wins an award for making the strongest impression in the least screen-time. She is so scary. The wide mouth and the narrow eyes and the arrogance and the fury. This is one of her best roles, too. I wish there were a film of her doing Lady MacBeth, which she performed many times on stage.

Francis L. Sullivan, Cecil Parker, Ernest Thesiger and the boy who plays Ptolemy (Anthony Harvey) also score nicely.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful!
This is one of the best movies that I've ever seen! George Bernard Shaw has written a play just as good as anything that Shakespeare could have penned. The cast was perfect, and the direction was on point!
Even the costumes and set designs were incredible. Add this to your movie collection!
Just one note: maybe Cleopatra was not African (black) as stated in an earlier review, but I do believe that
simply stating this rumor as an untruth would have been sufficient. Calling ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The magnificence of Shaw and Caesar
It's our amazing good fortune to have this document of one of George Bernard Shaw's greatest plays, filmed during his lifetime so that he could author the screenplay as he wrote the original stage work. It is a monument to the magnificence, not only of Shaw, but of Caesar. It is also a monument to Shaw's brilliant playcraft, clever plotting, and canny application of humor. It goes without saying that Shaw was brilliant, since of course he was a socialist.

We have seen this story before, ... Read More
