1
00:00:07,330 --> 00:00:10,580
MESSALINA,
IMPERIAL VUS
2
00:01:37,540 --> 00:01:40,040
They haven't killed me yet!
3
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,410
Shout to all of Rome:
Calgula lives!
4
00:01:43,450 --> 00:01:47,000
And his men
You won't be able to kill me!
5
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,120
Calgula is immortal! Immortal...
6
00:01:51,250 --> 00:01:53,540
Enough of this farce!
7
00:01:53,580 --> 00:01:55,790
Rome needs a
real emperor!
8
00:01:55,830 --> 00:01:58,870
And not from an inflamed madman!
9
00:02:01,830 --> 00:02:03,700
Sacrilege!
10
00:02:03,790 --> 00:02:06,160
My blood will fall on you...
11
00:02:06,330 --> 00:02:09,790
Must die,
so that Rome may live.
12
00:02:15,806 --> 00:02:18,933
And about the blood of Calgula
alternate, in a cruel game
13
00:02:18,993 --> 00:02:23,940
of ambitions, violence and oppression,
emperors and empresses.
14
00:02:24,006 --> 00:02:27,480
This is the time when human life
It is devoid of value,
15
00:02:27,580 --> 00:02:32,106
time when corruption
and betrayal rule existence.
16
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,580
And Messalina, with her haters
and his passions,
17
00:02:35,660 --> 00:02:37,480
It is the symbol of this era.
18
00:02:55,410 --> 00:02:57,500
Please!
19
00:02:58,910 --> 00:03:01,870
I've been waiting a long time. This place
It's very dangerous for me.
20
00:03:01,950 --> 00:03:03,580
And what's new?
21
00:03:03,620 --> 00:03:04,830
Claudius...
22
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,450
Claudius will be the new emperor.
Our plan will succeed.
23
00:03:09,580 --> 00:03:11,000
Have you spoken to him yet?
24
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,500
The time has not yet come.
It is not wise to reveal your name.
25
00:03:15,620 --> 00:03:17,040
But fear not:
26
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,370
You are the only Roman noblewoman
about which there is no suspicion.
27
00:03:23,410 --> 00:03:28,580
Rome will never have a vestal
as beautiful as you.
28
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,660
You will be empress,
29
00:03:30,750 --> 00:03:34,370
and the fate of Rome
It will be in our hands.
30
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,660
I'll be back here in six days,
at the same time.
31
00:04:00,290 --> 00:04:03,540
May the gods grant it
Have a happy reign, Claudius.
32
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:07,160
The soldiers and people of Rome
they hail him as emperor.
33
00:04:27,330 --> 00:04:29,410
The fate of Rome
on my shoulders;
34
00:04:29,540 --> 00:04:33,120
I wonder if I was wise
in assuming such a burden.
35
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,330
I don't know other hands than yours
36
00:04:35,540 --> 00:04:38,080
worthy to guide
the fate of the empire.
37
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,910
I'm not fooling myself. The Praetorians
raised me to the throne,
38
00:04:40,950 --> 00:04:43,330
but the aristocrats
they will try to take me down.
39
00:04:43,370 --> 00:04:44,790
None of them came,
40
00:04:44,870 --> 00:04:47,000
and maybe they already are
conspiring against me.
41
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,830
The Roman Senate acclaimed him emperor,
42
00:04:49,910 --> 00:04:51,540
and defend your rights.
43
00:04:51,620 --> 00:04:53,870
The legionnaires adore you.
44
00:04:54,830 --> 00:04:58,080
Rule against intrigue
It's an arduous task.
45
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,290
Don't worry about it, Claudius.
46
00:05:00,370 --> 00:05:04,370
Aristocrats are ambitious,
but easily corruptible.
47
00:05:22,910 --> 00:05:27,290
You're late, tribune!
Claudius arrived a long time ago.
48
00:05:27,370 --> 00:05:28,620
By the gods!
49
00:05:28,750 --> 00:05:32,250
They always scared me
the emperors are very punctual!
50
00:05:44,750 --> 00:05:48,200
- I bet 100 on the top.
- 200 on the shorty.
51
00:05:48,290 --> 00:05:50,910
- 300 on top.
- 400 on the shorty.
52
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,870
- 500 on myself. Do you accept?
- Accepted!
53
00:05:57,620 --> 00:06:00,450
With your permission, divine Claudius.
54
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,450
Go!
55
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,000
Bad investment, right?
56
00:06:42,700 --> 00:06:45,910
Come on, pay your debts. I won.
57
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,000
- Here.
- Ah, that's better.
58
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,620
By the gods, they were tough!
59
00:06:49,660 --> 00:06:52,000
Come on, let's not waste any more time, friends.
60
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,000
There are many flowers
waiting for us here.
61
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,540
But in my opinion, you bribed them.
62
00:08:04,370 --> 00:08:06,790
Marry a
representative of the aristocracy
63
00:08:06,870 --> 00:08:09,410
It would be a political message, Claudius.
64
00:08:09,500 --> 00:08:12,160
The nobles sooner or later
they will have to abdicate.
65
00:08:12,410 --> 00:08:15,080
and one by one, they will enter the court.
66
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,200
These are the advantages,
Now tell me about the disadvantages.
67
00:08:18,290 --> 00:08:21,540
Who is the woman I should have by my side?
68
00:08:21,700 --> 00:08:25,580
I thought of Valéria, Valéria Messalina.
69
00:08:25,750 --> 00:08:29,410
She belongs to one of the
most noble families in Rome.
70
00:08:29,580 --> 00:08:32,750
A vestal will be consecrated
in a few months,
71
00:08:32,830 --> 00:08:35,950
But if Claudius asks for her hand...
72
00:08:36,370 --> 00:08:40,330
You already told me once
of this young vestal, who is she?
73
00:08:40,540 --> 00:08:43,410
She is Augusto's niece.
74
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:45,870
The most beautiful woman in the empire.
75
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,750
Caesar Augustus's niece?
76
00:08:48,830 --> 00:08:51,950
We hope it's not too boring
as his illustrious ancestor.
77
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,660
You know I never
would give you bad advice.
78
00:08:54,790 --> 00:08:57,370
Are they deciding the fate of Rome?
79
00:08:57,500 --> 00:09:01,410
The emperor decided to get married
with Valéria Messalina.
80
00:09:01,540 --> 00:09:03,700
Augusto's niece?
81
00:09:03,830 --> 00:09:06,750
If that is your desire, Claudius,
82
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,120
that the gods
grant him a peaceful life...
83
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,830
And a long reign.
84
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,000
To the great empire of Rome!
And to the strong arms that defend him!
85
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,000
I also need strong arms...
86
00:09:18,540 --> 00:09:20,160
Let them defend me!
87
00:09:31,620 --> 00:09:34,290
Did they leave you alone? Can I help?
88
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,580
There! You tore my dress.
89
00:09:56,660 --> 00:09:58,830
It's true. Let's save the dress!
90
00:10:00,290 --> 00:10:02,500
One of us is left, and that's you.
91
00:10:02,580 --> 00:10:05,500
But right here, next to the temple of Vesta?
92
00:10:05,540 --> 00:10:07,620
Yes, sacrilege.
93
00:10:07,830 --> 00:10:11,160
But by the way, there is no
a meeting tomorrow in the Senate?
94
00:10:55,450 --> 00:10:58,580
Maybe it's another man,
What stops you from marrying me?
95
00:10:58,660 --> 00:11:01,750
No, but I wouldn't make you happy.
96
00:11:02,750 --> 00:11:05,500
And you, Vipdia, have nothing to say?
97
00:11:05,700 --> 00:11:08,620
Val�ria sit down
Very honored by your request.
98
00:11:09,250 --> 00:11:11,790
You are the most powerful
of aristocrats,
99
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,410
but the fate of Valeria
It is consecrated to the goddess Vesta.
100
00:11:15,580 --> 00:11:17,580
As you wish, Valéria.
101
00:11:18,250 --> 00:11:23,000
For your sake, I hope
Don't regret your refusal.
102
00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:28,500
The vestals are daughters of the gods,
and only the gods grant glory.
103
00:11:28,950 --> 00:11:32,660
Ambition devours you, Valéria.
For you this is a virtue.
104
00:11:32,750 --> 00:11:35,080
That's why I wanted
that you were my wife.
105
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,160
Come.
106
00:11:57,700 --> 00:11:59,080
Who's there?
107
00:11:59,250 --> 00:12:01,410
The great Vesta will never give you love,
108
00:12:01,540 --> 00:12:04,290
and love is the only thing
that we live by.
109
00:12:07,370 --> 00:12:09,660
How dare you violate
the sacred gardens of Vesta?
110
00:12:09,750 --> 00:12:11,500
If they find out, they kill you. Go.
111
00:12:11,620 --> 00:12:13,750
Maybe it's worth it.
112
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,330
- What is your name?
- Valeria!
113
00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:18,870
- Valeria.
- Valerie...
114
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,290
You are very beautiful, Valéria.
115
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,000
My name is Lúcio Maximo.
116
00:12:26,790 --> 00:12:29,910
I am a soldier, and I will love you
like no other.
117
00:12:31,750 --> 00:12:33,370
Go.
118
00:12:33,450 --> 00:12:37,540
A soldier must die in battle,
and not in the gardens of Vesta.
119
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,700
- Could I see you again?
- Valeria!
120
00:12:45,750 --> 00:12:49,080
In the morning, the pine forests are deserted.
121
00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:54,250
I'll be there, waiting for you!
122
00:12:58,620 --> 00:13:01,000
You can refuse
the emperor's offer...
123
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,500
accepting the seclusion of the Vestals.
124
00:13:03,830 --> 00:13:06,040
The choice is yours.
125
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,700
And if I wanted to do
different with my life?
126
00:13:09,790 --> 00:13:12,200
You would be unhappy.
127
00:13:12,750 --> 00:13:15,250
Stay here in this temple, Valeria,
128
00:13:15,500 --> 00:13:18,330
where they don't reach
the cruel voices of the world,
129
00:13:18,450 --> 00:13:20,500
the ambitious passions of men.
130
00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:23,750
No, Vipdia.
I can't give up living,
131
00:13:23,790 --> 00:13:26,200
and I cannot renounce loving.
132
00:13:26,370 --> 00:13:28,540
The glory I will not obtain from the gods,
133
00:13:28,620 --> 00:13:30,290
I will obtain it from men.
134
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,000
- I've already decided.
- May the gods protect you.
135
00:13:48,790 --> 00:13:50,410
Valeria!
136
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,790
It's the third morning that I wake up
at dawn to come to the pine forests
137
00:13:53,870 --> 00:13:58,040
and only the swallows keep me company.
138
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,120
Did you really think I would come?
139
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,830
Have you forgotten that I'm a vestal?
140
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,370
Even Rhea Sylvia was a vestal, wasn't she?
141
00:14:12,620 --> 00:14:15,870
- Why did you come back?
- Because I love you, Valéria.
142
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,250
We were playing that night,
143
00:14:18,450 --> 00:14:20,250
But then I realized that...
144
00:14:20,370 --> 00:14:22,540
It's a joke
that causes suffering.
145
00:14:23,500 --> 00:14:24,870
Go away.
146
00:14:26,330 --> 00:14:28,750
Tomorrow I won't make you wait long.
147
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:38,950
I've been counting the hours...
148
00:15:47,410 --> 00:15:49,410
Just waiting to see you again.
149
00:15:51,620 --> 00:15:53,580
Let's go to bed.
150
00:16:10,450 --> 00:16:13,500
is courageous, challenging
death by a vestal.
151
00:16:16,700 --> 00:16:19,750
My whole life I dreamed of a man
who loved me sincerely,
152
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,410
whoever I was.
153
00:16:23,750 --> 00:16:26,370
Was this man very different from me?
154
00:16:26,910 --> 00:16:28,080
No, it was you.
155
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:31,500
Now let death come.
156
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,000
If I didn't know you, I would say
who is worried about Armenia.
157
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,040
- Yes I am. Wars are unpleasant.
- Oh, Maximo!
158
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,950
Are you worried
with what he leaves in Rome.
159
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,450
What's her name? Do I know her?
160
00:16:51,540 --> 00:16:53,830
No, but even I know little about her.
161
00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:58,250
Come on, don't look so sad!
Do like me, who doesn't think about the matter,
162
00:16:58,290 --> 00:17:01,370
having left my family
in Rome, his wife and two children!
163
00:17:01,410 --> 00:17:02,500
And are you happy like this?
164
00:17:02,540 --> 00:17:04,870
Of course. I will meet again
My family from Armenia!
165
00:17:04,910 --> 00:17:06,580
But how many families do you have?
166
00:17:06,620 --> 00:17:09,450
One in every country I go to!
167
00:17:20,120 --> 00:17:21,910
Lúcio, we came to look for you.
168
00:17:21,950 --> 00:17:23,950
Your friends want
celebrate your departure.
169
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,160
No, I can't.
170
00:17:25,250 --> 00:17:27,330
Normally, when
a friend's invitation is refused,
171
00:17:27,410 --> 00:17:29,120
It's because you're busy
with some woman.
172
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,660
I fear that the women there
They don't compare to ours.
173
00:17:31,750 --> 00:17:34,870
- It's not what I think, Geta.
- Oh, then it's serious.
174
00:17:35,870 --> 00:17:37,450
Maybe it's serious.
175
00:17:37,870 --> 00:17:39,700
I fear that not even the Armenian campaign,
176
00:17:39,790 --> 00:17:42,910
not a hundred more
would be enough to forget her.
177
00:17:43,410 --> 00:17:46,200
Rome has no other soldiers
to send to Armenia?
178
00:17:46,290 --> 00:17:47,870
It seems not.
179
00:17:50,620 --> 00:17:53,790
And will you accept it like this, without rebelling?
180
00:17:55,750 --> 00:17:59,700
A soldier must only
obey the emperor's orders.
181
00:18:02,910 --> 00:18:04,870
Will you wait for me?
182
00:18:06,750 --> 00:18:09,790
I spent with you
the most beautiful days of my life,
183
00:18:09,950 --> 00:18:11,950
How could I forget you?
184
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:18,160
I will count the days and I will count the hours,
and every night we will look at the same sky.
185
00:19:11,450 --> 00:19:15,080
Divine Claudius,
This is the wife you chose.
186
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,700
All the gods together
they could not oppose his will.
187
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:19,620
Your place is by my side.
188
00:19:19,790 --> 00:19:22,330
Maybe destiny itself
have written this.
189
00:19:22,450 --> 00:19:26,450
From today, you will share with me
the honors and weight of the empire.
190
00:19:27,250 --> 00:19:29,330
And then, those who succeed us will judge
191
00:19:29,410 --> 00:19:32,160
whether or not we were worthy of so much power.
192
00:19:33,250 --> 00:19:37,500
Not our successors; they
remember only illustrious men,
193
00:19:37,830 --> 00:19:40,910
that go up to Olympus, next to Caesar.
194
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:46,330
The serenity of judgment
It is the prerogative of the world to come.
195
00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:50,080
Julius Caesar, however,
has not yet been judged.
196
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,830
The emperor has good taste!
He chose a young and beautiful woman.
197
00:20:03,950 --> 00:20:06,950
A little too young for him,
but a skillful political move.
198
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,370
Did you notice?
No aristocrats came!
199
00:20:09,410 --> 00:20:12,500
And what would they do here?
Celebrate your own defeat?
200
00:20:24,580 --> 00:20:26,330
Leave me.
201
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,790
Your wishes have been heard,
divine Messalina.
202
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:48,700
Lúcio Maximo is already traveling towards Armenia.
203
00:20:48,830 --> 00:20:51,700
Where for sure
will conquer new glories.
204
00:20:51,750 --> 00:20:54,540
And where will Valéria be forgotten.
205
00:20:54,950 --> 00:20:58,540
But when you return,
find Messalina.
206
00:20:58,660 --> 00:21:03,370
I made you empress
for your beauty and for our love.
207
00:21:03,620 --> 00:21:08,290
Now we will rule Rome,
despite Claudius and his sycophants.
208
00:21:08,910 --> 00:21:12,160
Claudius waits for his gift
wedding night, but for you,
209
00:21:12,330 --> 00:21:15,540
I am the emperor.
210
00:21:16,290 --> 00:21:19,080
Wait, listen to me carefully.
211
00:21:19,250 --> 00:21:21,040
I know you.
212
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:26,660
Remember: with me,
Games can be dangerous.
213
00:21:27,750 --> 00:21:31,700
- Are you so sure you know me?
- I couldn't have made a better choice.
214
00:21:31,950 --> 00:21:36,040
You have all the qualities
that I always dreamed of.
215
00:21:36,580 --> 00:21:39,790
- Are you the emperor or me the empress?
- He arrives!
216
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,410
Don't you dare defy me anymore, Messalina.
217
00:21:42,580 --> 00:21:45,830
I am your emperor, remember well.
218
00:21:45,910 --> 00:21:48,700
I won't forget.
219
00:21:52,660 --> 00:21:57,250
Come. Let's drink to our love
and our power.
220
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,200
We will make history,
221
00:22:17,290 --> 00:22:20,250
because history is written
by the brave.
222
00:22:20,410 --> 00:22:23,120
The best wine in the empire.
223
00:23:06,870 --> 00:23:08,450
Guards.
224
00:23:09,790 --> 00:23:11,870
Call Lúcio Geta.
225
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,660
I had to defend my honor.
226
00:23:41,330 --> 00:23:44,200
Don't tell Claudius until tomorrow...
227
00:23:44,580 --> 00:23:46,910
because tonight...
228
00:23:47,700 --> 00:23:49,790
It's our wedding night.
229
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,500
Listen...
230
00:24:03,660 --> 00:24:05,410
Listen to the people!
231
00:24:05,500 --> 00:24:08,080
How you shout, and celebrate, and have fun!
232
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,830
The new Caesar was
generous with your coins,
233
00:24:10,910 --> 00:24:13,370
to celebrate his young wife.
234
00:24:13,910 --> 00:24:16,450
Furthermore, an empress
beautiful pleases the poor.
235
00:24:16,620 --> 00:24:19,040
It satisfies them like a plate of beans.
236
00:24:19,330 --> 00:24:22,750
Beasts! They are nothing but beasts,
237
00:24:22,830 --> 00:24:24,950
who celebrate their own ruin.
238
00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:29,580
Val�ria Messalina betrayed the cause
of the nobles of all Rome.
239
00:24:31,910 --> 00:24:33,500
Listen, Marcelo,
240
00:24:33,620 --> 00:24:38,080
The cause we dedicate ourselves to
needs your arms.
241
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,910
It is necessary to act,
242
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,080
before the people proclaim
the triumph of the empress.
243
00:25:49,250 --> 00:25:51,700
They ordered him to murder me.
244
00:25:52,290 --> 00:25:56,250
So, what are you waiting for?
245
00:25:58,790 --> 00:26:01,000
I know what you're thinking...
246
00:26:02,250 --> 00:26:04,830
That it would be crazy to kill myself.
247
00:26:06,870 --> 00:26:09,540
What's the use of hate...
248
00:26:09,660 --> 00:26:11,540
When is there love?
249
00:27:29,250 --> 00:27:31,950
There are many dangers in Rome...
250
00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:35,330
You are young and inexperienced.
251
00:27:35,450 --> 00:27:40,950
I wouldn't want you to have illusions
about your new condition.
252
00:27:46,660 --> 00:27:49,700
You need an ally
and a powerful friend at court.
253
00:27:49,790 --> 00:27:51,950
That man wanted to kill me!
254
00:27:54,250 --> 00:27:57,540
But I knew how to defend myself.
255
00:27:58,370 --> 00:28:03,500
Cludio's wife is of no interest
neither friends nor allies, remember that!
256
00:28:10,870 --> 00:28:13,830
How many laps
Have you hit the hourglass yet, Caio S�lio?
257
00:28:13,870 --> 00:28:14,910
Have patience.
258
00:28:14,950 --> 00:28:17,200
Marcelo is brave, strong and courageous.
259
00:28:17,290 --> 00:28:19,160
But the dependencies
de Cláudio are well watched.
260
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,250
It's here! Messalina is here!
261
00:28:27,410 --> 00:28:31,830
The Roman aristocrats are so scared
with a defenseless young woman?
262
00:28:31,910 --> 00:28:36,540
No, none of us are afraid.
We only care about Rome.
263
00:28:36,910 --> 00:28:40,410
Stay calm.
Rome is in good hands...
264
00:28:40,660 --> 00:28:42,540
In mine.
265
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:49,290
None of you came
pay homage to Messalina.
266
00:28:50,830 --> 00:28:54,450
But Messalina
knows how to treat friends.
267
00:28:55,580 --> 00:28:59,580
And that's why I came to find them.
268
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:01,950
And...
269
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,660
Bring them a gift.
270
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,040
Marcelo!
271
00:29:12,540 --> 00:29:29,660
TWO YEARS LATER, THE ARMINIAN LEGION,
HIS MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, HE RETURNED TO ROME.
272
00:29:38,910 --> 00:29:41,410
Smart, huh?
How old are you?
273
00:29:41,540 --> 00:29:44,120
- Seven.
Great. And what is it called?
274
00:29:44,290 --> 00:29:45,370
Messalina.
275
00:29:45,450 --> 00:29:50,370
By the gods! Since I set foot in Rome,
I only hear about Messalina.
276
00:29:50,410 --> 00:29:53,620
Never distributed
as much grain as at that time.
277
00:29:53,700 --> 00:29:56,040
And you can't
miss the circus shows!
278
00:29:56,410 --> 00:29:57,700
Don't look for her here.
279
00:29:57,950 --> 00:30:01,330
You know the law,
no one will be able to see her again.
280
00:30:01,450 --> 00:30:03,660
Go away, Lúcio Maximo.
281
00:30:03,790 --> 00:30:06,080
Forget Valéria.
282
00:30:13,950 --> 00:30:16,330
Come on, Messalina.
283
00:30:20,620 --> 00:30:22,750
I don't see you smiling, tribune.
284
00:30:22,870 --> 00:30:25,910
He promised me he would be happy,
arriving in Rome.
285
00:30:26,370 --> 00:30:29,950
I can't believe she has
cloistered in the temple of Vesta.
286
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,200
Stop thinking about her.
287
00:30:32,250 --> 00:30:33,830
Come on, be happy, Lúcio.
288
00:30:33,910 --> 00:30:37,870
There are a thousand ways to have fun
to forget your Valeria.
289
00:30:38,370 --> 00:30:40,620
Women like Valeria
never forget.
290
00:30:40,660 --> 00:30:42,910
Come on, let's go.
291
00:30:50,500 --> 00:30:53,620
For Messalina's health!
292
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,660
For Messalina's health!
293
00:30:55,700 --> 00:30:59,120
The empress will live a hundred years
if your votes are sincere!
294
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,290
Sincere like this wine,
they brought 100 barrels!
295
00:31:02,660 --> 00:31:05,540
I tried this and now
I'm going to the next one,
296
00:31:05,620 --> 00:31:08,580
I want to see if they are all
the same quality!
297
00:31:08,660 --> 00:31:11,080
My jar! My jar!
298
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,120
Don't want to try
a gift from Messalina?
299
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,200
- No!
- What a shame.
300
00:31:14,290 --> 00:31:16,790
Messalina sent
distribute a keg on each street!
301
00:31:16,870 --> 00:31:22,200
- And when the barrels run out?
- We will support the aristocrats!
302
00:31:26,870 --> 00:31:28,370
- Alva, long hair...
- Wonderful!
303
00:31:28,450 --> 00:31:31,500
- My stomach is growling...
- Oh, look! Speaking of women...
304
00:31:33,620 --> 00:31:36,120
Sit with us...
Our wine is better!
305
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,790
Only those with hair have libido!
306
00:31:38,870 --> 00:31:43,540
The wine may have gone bad
my stomach, but not the muscles!
307
00:31:43,620 --> 00:31:45,700
Quiet, calm.
308
00:31:45,830 --> 00:31:48,290
- It's Messalina's health!
309
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,830
It seems that all of Rome
went crazy for Messalina.
310
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:53,830
So much fuss over a woman.
311
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,500
Who spoke ill of Messalina?
312
00:31:56,620 --> 00:31:57,870
Him.
313
00:32:28,330 --> 00:32:29,950
See!
314
00:33:04,410 --> 00:33:06,330
Not bad, huh?
315
00:33:15,660 --> 00:33:17,500
Let's go?
316
00:33:24,580 --> 00:33:26,290
Hey, you.
317
00:33:28,330 --> 00:33:29,950
Come with us.
318
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,000
Come, come!
319
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,790
I give thanks to the gods
for your presence!
320
00:33:49,330 --> 00:33:51,160
Even foreigners come to Rome.
321
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,750
It is true that in Armenia
Do women wear little clothing?
322
00:33:53,790 --> 00:33:57,660
I don't know, he's the one who knows the habits
of all women in the world.
323
00:33:57,750 --> 00:34:00,700
From this point of view, Armenia
It is much more advanced than Rome:
324
00:34:00,790 --> 00:34:02,660
either there is a party, or there is war!
325
00:34:02,700 --> 00:34:07,000
Woman and wine are the
best remedies for all ills!
326
00:34:09,620 --> 00:34:14,330
My shield must shine brighter
than the Sun's rays in a clear sky.
327
00:34:14,370 --> 00:34:17,660
I want, in the middle of the battle,
in case of need,
328
00:34:17,750 --> 00:34:21,330
he dazzles the sight of his enemies!
329
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:27,500
But now, let us comfort
this poor sword of mine!
330
00:34:32,790 --> 00:34:34,750
Don't complain,
331
00:34:34,870 --> 00:34:39,250
don't even suffer too much because she stays
a lot of time idle by my side!
332
00:34:39,290 --> 00:34:41,620
Poor thing!
333
00:34:41,700 --> 00:34:46,160
Dying to do it
minced meat from your enemies!
334
00:34:47,910 --> 00:34:50,160
Artifices!
335
00:34:50,370 --> 00:34:52,040
- Artifices!
- I am here.
336
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:56,500
- Artifices!
- I am here!
337
00:34:58,290 --> 00:35:02,290
Next to a strong hero,
fortunate and noble-looking.
338
00:35:02,370 --> 00:35:04,660
That elephant, for example, over there.
339
00:35:04,700 --> 00:35:06,580
No, there!
340
00:35:06,700 --> 00:35:09,870
In India, by Pyrgopolineices!
341
00:35:09,910 --> 00:35:12,750
How did you manage to break it?
his arm with your fist?
342
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,250
I'm not in the mood
to talk about these things now.
343
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:25,540
But in Armenia, remember?
810 I killed in the hills!
344
00:35:25,620 --> 00:35:28,120
900 and so in Citolatronia!
345
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,450
40 in Cilicia. 80 Macedonians.
346
00:35:31,540 --> 00:35:34,250
- Art�tragos, what is the total?
- 7000!
347
00:35:37,790 --> 00:35:40,700
Make way! It is the empress's court.
348
00:35:40,750 --> 00:35:43,410
Get out of the way, legionnaire.
349
00:35:43,580 --> 00:35:45,330
Lúcio Maximo!
350
00:35:45,540 --> 00:35:47,450
By all the gods!
351
00:35:47,620 --> 00:35:51,540
Your friends are looking for you
since he arrived to celebrate.
352
00:35:51,660 --> 00:35:53,830
But you disappeared, of course!
353
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,500
The great general, the victorious hero,
354
00:35:56,660 --> 00:35:59,660
don't appreciate it anymore
the company of us mortals.
355
00:36:00,500 --> 00:36:02,450
- I'm glad to see you.
- Me too.
356
00:36:02,540 --> 00:36:04,580
The glory of your triumphs
got here.
357
00:36:04,620 --> 00:36:06,160
I was lucky.
358
00:36:06,330 --> 00:36:09,000
Praetorian, a horse for
the tribune, quickly.
359
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,910
Come on, we're going to have fun.
360
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,040
Let's celebrate your return
as she deserves.
361
00:36:22,580 --> 00:36:24,910
What harm have we done?
We have our rights,
362
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,040
and we demand
may the empress respect them!
363
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:31,410
Messalina can't do this to us!
Monsters! Monsters!
364
00:36:39,620 --> 00:36:42,120
- Let go of me!
- Get out of here!
365
00:36:45,700 --> 00:36:48,290
Drop my things!
366
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,580
Help, they want to kill me!
367
00:36:51,700 --> 00:36:55,290
Did you hear that? They want to kill me!
Assassins!
368
00:36:55,410 --> 00:36:57,540
Assassins! Assassins!
369
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,660
Help!
370
00:36:59,750 --> 00:37:02,750
They're robbing me!
Taking all my things!
371
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,200
Damn!
372
00:37:05,410 --> 00:37:07,910
- Let go of me! They want to kill me!
- Quiet!
373
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,580
- Who wants to kill you? Be quiet!
- Help!
374
00:37:10,660 --> 00:37:13,410
- Nobody wants to hurt you!
- Oh, they want to kill me, help!
375
00:37:13,450 --> 00:37:15,290
- Quiet!
- I'm a poor woman...
376
00:37:15,330 --> 00:37:17,660
Enough, and leave these people alone!
377
00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:21,790
And you, everyone, come back
To your huts! Don't go away!
378
00:37:22,250 --> 00:37:25,870
The soldiers will not dare to harm them,
if they don't get scared.
379
00:37:25,950 --> 00:37:28,830
There is no law
that forces them to leave this land.
380
00:37:28,910 --> 00:37:30,250
Go back to your homes!
381
00:37:30,330 --> 00:37:32,870
For too long you
suffered at the hands of the violent.
382
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,870
Now the law is on your side.
The law in Rome is sovereign!
383
00:37:35,910 --> 00:37:37,200
Not even the emperor can break it.
384
00:37:37,330 --> 00:37:38,580
Aulo Celso!
385
00:37:38,950 --> 00:37:41,040
What are you doing here at this time?
386
00:37:41,870 --> 00:37:45,500
Choose the ideal time and place
to open the eyes of the people.
387
00:37:45,910 --> 00:37:48,080
Yet another abuse in the name of Messalina.
388
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,500
See? They take advantage of us
because we are the weakest.
389
00:37:50,580 --> 00:37:52,580
Continue with the expulsion!
390
00:37:53,250 --> 00:37:55,580
You are taking advantage
of our friendship.
391
00:37:55,620 --> 00:37:58,830
No other man would still live
if you dared to talk to me like that.
392
00:37:58,910 --> 00:38:02,330
These lands are being confiscated
to be sold to Públio Vit�lio,
393
00:38:02,410 --> 00:38:05,700
who will pay 3000 sesterces
in the hands of Messalina.
394
00:38:05,870 --> 00:38:08,290
Where do you think
your empress takes the money
395
00:38:08,330 --> 00:38:10,450
...to continue in the favor of the people?
396
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:11,540
Careful. Go.
397
00:38:12,450 --> 00:38:14,700
I don't allow you to talk like that.
398
00:38:14,790 --> 00:38:17,580
One more word, Celso,
and I will have you arrested.
399
00:38:17,620 --> 00:38:19,660
Aulo Celso, Geta!
400
00:38:19,750 --> 00:38:21,040
It's not possible!
401
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,950
Like two old friends
Do they talk about each other like that?
402
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:28,120
I can't bear to see a friend
blind to the monstrosities of Messalina.
403
00:38:28,250 --> 00:38:31,000
- All of Rome acclaims the empress.
- Not all of Rome.
404
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,330
Just a part of the crowd that
he doesn't know the high price he will have to pay,
405
00:38:34,410 --> 00:38:37,910
because of the handful of grain that
Messalina distributes it with such pomp.
406
00:38:37,950 --> 00:38:39,540
You don't know her.
407
00:38:39,660 --> 00:38:41,080
But I know Geta.
408
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:42,933
The rights of the empire
cannot bow down
409
00:38:43,013 --> 00:38:45,320
before a
little community of poor people.
410
00:38:45,450 --> 00:38:48,000
I will speak to the emperor,
he will listen to me.
411
00:38:48,330 --> 00:38:49,660
I want you to be friends,
412
00:38:49,700 --> 00:38:52,580
as the three of us were before. Isn't it, Geta?
413
00:38:52,620 --> 00:38:55,910
It's difficult, Maximo,
for a dry plant to bloom again.
414
00:38:55,950 --> 00:38:59,000
The friendship between me and Celso
It's over forever.
415
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,000
I have sole experience.
416
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,830
If many complain, there is no
how to deny that something is wrong.
417
00:39:05,910 --> 00:39:08,580
But if there are few,
one can punish them without remorse.
418
00:39:08,620 --> 00:39:10,580
The discontented
are almost always wrong.
419
00:39:10,620 --> 00:39:12,500
You said it right: almost always.
420
00:39:13,950 --> 00:39:18,200
But this time there are not a few
those who complain about such happy Rome.
421
00:39:18,330 --> 00:39:21,580
So, what did you decide?
Are we going home or are we leaving?
422
00:39:21,750 --> 00:39:23,500
And you, who are you?
423
00:39:23,580 --> 00:39:27,160
One of the reasons for your discussion.
And I want to give my opinion.
424
00:39:27,290 --> 00:39:29,200
All right, let's hear it.
425
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,660
If you look at me like that,
I won't be able to speak.
426
00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:34,950
You always look
like this for women?
427
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,450
Why? Are you by any chance a woman?
428
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,200
Come on, Celso. Let's go back to Rome.
429
00:39:41,450 --> 00:39:44,000
But what now? What will become of us?
430
00:39:44,410 --> 00:39:48,450
Don't worry.
They will remain in their village.
431
00:39:50,450 --> 00:39:54,410
- And us? Can we stay?
- Calm down, calm down.
432
00:39:54,500 --> 00:39:56,790
Vincius, Vincius!
433
00:39:57,540 --> 00:40:02,000
Give me your a-armor, master. It's hot.
434
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,370
Why are you stuttering?
435
00:40:03,450 --> 00:40:06,450
Stutter? Just
I got confused in words, master.
436
00:40:06,540 --> 00:40:09,450
Either there was something, or it's
robbing me more than usual.
437
00:40:09,500 --> 00:40:12,250
But love, how can you say something like that?
438
00:40:12,330 --> 00:40:14,950
- Why? Would it be the first time?
- Yes, I do.
439
00:40:28,790 --> 00:40:32,910
- Valeria. You haven't forgotten me.
- Ah, Lúcio!
440
00:40:35,580 --> 00:40:37,410
How did you know I came back?
441
00:40:37,500 --> 00:40:40,450
Vipdia told me that
you looked for me in the temple.
442
00:40:40,580 --> 00:40:44,450
- That's why I came right away.
- I thought I lost you.
443
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,580
Two years are long...
444
00:41:24,910 --> 00:41:28,660
Would you still love me if you knew
that the Vestal from before no longer exists?
445
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,040
I will love you forever.
446
00:41:40,330 --> 00:41:43,790
Would love me despite anything
What happened during those years?
447
00:41:43,870 --> 00:41:48,000
Your kisses cancel
the past and anything.
448
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,620
So kiss me.
449
00:41:51,370 --> 00:41:53,620
Kiss me, love me...
450
00:41:53,910 --> 00:41:56,950
I need you so much.
451
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:00,870
Hail, Lúcio.
452
00:42:00,950 --> 00:42:04,080
So who chose? Me or Aulo Celso?
453
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,200
I just want to know why
an honest man like Celso,
454
00:42:07,290 --> 00:42:10,120
and an honest man like you
cannot reach an agreement.
455
00:42:10,660 --> 00:42:12,580
Announce me to the emperor.
456
00:42:12,660 --> 00:42:15,830
I will ask the empress to listen to you.
457
00:42:16,450 --> 00:42:20,290
I can't complain to her
of an act committed in his name.
458
00:42:20,950 --> 00:42:23,910
He doesn't know Messalina.
459
00:42:24,250 --> 00:42:25,950
Come with me.
460
00:42:28,410 --> 00:42:31,290
The perfumes, Flávia.
461
00:42:44,330 --> 00:42:47,870
Divine, I announce you
the tribune Licio Maximus.
462
00:42:48,700 --> 00:42:51,160
The tribune is welcome.
463
00:42:51,910 --> 00:42:54,120
You can go, Lúcio Geta.
464
00:42:54,330 --> 00:42:56,910
It's your orders, Divine.
465
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,040
Come closer.
466
00:43:29,764 --> 00:43:32,762
You... Messalina?
467
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,200
Yes.
468
00:43:38,330 --> 00:43:40,160
Wait.
469
00:43:40,370 --> 00:43:42,370
Come back here.
470
00:43:43,950 --> 00:43:46,580
It's not Claudius' wife who orders you,
471
00:43:46,660 --> 00:43:48,750
but Valéria asks you.
472
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,950
Come.
473
00:43:59,250 --> 00:44:01,540
You, Valeria?
474
00:44:01,790 --> 00:44:03,370
It's not possible.
475
00:44:03,540 --> 00:44:07,700
These years I continued to love
a woman who no longer existed.
476
00:44:09,250 --> 00:44:13,160
For you, I will always be Valéria.
477
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,830
If you knew
how much I waited for your return...
478
00:44:18,950 --> 00:44:21,410
In Claudius' arms.
479
00:44:21,660 --> 00:44:24,910
Why do you accuse me?
You know I had no choice.
480
00:44:27,910 --> 00:44:30,750
You were far away,
I had to obey.
481
00:44:39,580 --> 00:44:42,120
I can't lose you.
482
00:44:43,870 --> 00:44:47,080
What did you want to ask the empress?
483
00:44:47,370 --> 00:44:51,040
- Is it about confiscated lands?
- Yes.
484
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,540
The Praetorians
are killing in your name,
485
00:44:54,750 --> 00:44:59,370
They want to burn and destroy
a village of poor commoners.
486
00:44:59,790 --> 00:45:03,410
Your friend Lúcio Geta
He's an honest man, but...
487
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,660
But he's a soldier...
488
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,660
And he doesn't know kindness.
489
00:45:09,790 --> 00:45:13,160
There are honest people who hate you.
490
00:45:14,700 --> 00:45:16,660
I know who you're talking about,
491
00:45:16,830 --> 00:45:20,250
but Aulo Celso is not the only one.
492
00:45:21,580 --> 00:45:24,500
Caius Sílio is against me.
493
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,200
Aristocrats and the Senate
are against me...
494
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,500
They accuse me because I want to help the people.
495
00:45:34,790 --> 00:45:36,370
I ordered these lands to be confiscated
496
00:45:36,410 --> 00:45:39,910
because I wanted to donate them
to veterans of the Armenian war.
497
00:45:43,540 --> 00:45:46,910
I want to give them to your soldiers...
498
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,830
That's why you must stay close to me.
499
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,540
You, who love Valeria...
500
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,790
He will also love Messalina.
501
00:46:21,500 --> 00:46:23,910
Who is it? Say your name.
502
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,290
No dagger needed
to welcome me. I'm Sílio.
503
00:46:27,580 --> 00:46:30,450
Sorry for coming into your house like that,
504
00:46:30,620 --> 00:46:33,160
but Rome is full of spies.
505
00:46:33,330 --> 00:46:38,080
No one feels safe anymore,
not even in the bed itself.
506
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:40,750
What there was?
507
00:46:40,910 --> 00:46:44,870
I must give you some bad news, Aulo Celso.
508
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:49,620
You expected to have Lúcio Maximus
at his side to face Messalina.
509
00:46:49,830 --> 00:46:52,200
I have to disappoint you.
510
00:46:52,290 --> 00:46:56,620
Lúcio Maximo was appointed
consul of the empress.
511
00:46:57,330 --> 00:46:59,200
How is it possible?
512
00:46:59,700 --> 00:47:01,750
A man like him.
513
00:47:01,910 --> 00:47:03,080
Geta...
514
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,200
- Geta must have convinced him.
- No, not Geta. Messalina!
515
00:47:07,290 --> 00:47:09,870
She is the one who convinces everyone.
516
00:47:09,950 --> 00:47:12,790
It seems that all men fear her,
517
00:47:12,910 --> 00:47:15,580
their fascination crushes and corrupts them.
518
00:47:15,700 --> 00:47:17,290
When a man like Lúcio Maximus
519
00:47:17,370 --> 00:47:20,790
gets lost in lust
of a woman like Messalina,
520
00:47:21,790 --> 00:47:24,120
one begins to doubt oneself,
521
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,700
and the things in which
Until yesterday we believed it.
522
00:47:26,790 --> 00:47:30,750
Your honesty and your loyalty
They are of no use against Messalina.
523
00:47:30,870 --> 00:47:34,200
We have to use force,
There is no other solution!
524
00:47:36,910 --> 00:47:39,000
These are my weapons:
525
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,200
My lines, my relationships.
526
00:47:43,580 --> 00:47:47,370
I never believed that justice
could be born from violence.
527
00:47:47,580 --> 00:47:50,540
When they slit your throat
on the Gemini stairs,
528
00:47:50,620 --> 00:47:53,370
your righteousness will not save you!
529
00:47:53,830 --> 00:47:55,750
No.
530
00:47:55,910 --> 00:47:58,750
But neither does violence.
531
00:48:00,410 --> 00:48:02,620
I will stay by your side,
532
00:48:02,790 --> 00:48:07,330
but my fields of action
will be the Senate and the tribune.
533
00:48:08,540 --> 00:48:10,620
Bye, Celso.
534
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,750
You have been an honest man.
535
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:18,370
Everything you do or say
It will be for the good of Rome.
536
00:48:18,700 --> 00:48:21,910
But be very careful with Messalina...
537
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,250
If you want to see freedom day.
538
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:03,160
You can go.
539
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,950
If we look at past events...
540
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,450
Listen, Rio, I'm also talking to you...
541
00:49:08,580 --> 00:49:10,580
compared to today,
542
00:49:10,620 --> 00:49:13,910
we will come to the certainty that,
whatever happens,
543
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,080
nothing can change events
in the big picture of history.
544
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,700
What is it, consul?
545
00:49:23,950 --> 00:49:26,200
Does Cludio's talk bore you?
546
00:49:26,290 --> 00:49:29,290
- No, I'm worried about the empress.
- The empress...
547
00:49:29,700 --> 00:49:32,500
But it's the emperor
who is in charge of government,
548
00:49:32,580 --> 00:49:33,910
with a plethora of dignitaries
549
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,450
and the faithful Narcissus for administration.
550
00:49:36,500 --> 00:49:39,250
The empress is a woman,
think of her as a woman;
551
00:49:39,330 --> 00:49:43,750
Don't leave her alone, bored
with the old man's historical fantasies.
552
00:49:43,870 --> 00:49:46,830
Claudius is a great emperor,
but a terrible husband.
553
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,870
Go, go.
554
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:08,950
If Rome's destiny is to triumph,
It's because History wanted it that way.
555
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:12,500
I know my lectures are boring,
but you are paid to listen to them,
556
00:50:12,700 --> 00:50:15,370
so at least pretend
a minimum of attention,
557
00:50:15,580 --> 00:50:18,830
instead of being enchanted by
sensual movements of a dancer.
558
00:50:19,290 --> 00:50:21,910
You seem so far away tonight.
559
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,250
Can you doubt my love?
560
00:50:36,950 --> 00:50:38,870
Let's drink.
561
00:50:40,370 --> 00:50:43,790
To us and our power.
562
00:50:46,830 --> 00:50:50,450
Burn everything, destroy these shacks!
563
00:51:08,410 --> 00:51:10,910
Quick, burn everything!
564
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,120
- Frames! March!
- Let's go!
565
00:51:26,330 --> 00:51:29,580
Aulo Celso! It's heaven that sends you!
566
00:51:30,700 --> 00:51:33,290
Lúcio Maximo!
567
00:51:35,830 --> 00:51:38,910
I insulted whoever told me
that you had betrayed Rome.
568
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,370
Forgive me Sylvia,
but I couldn't believe it.
569
00:51:41,410 --> 00:51:43,330
What do you want?
I don't have time for a lecture.
570
00:51:43,410 --> 00:51:46,790
I don't want to give a sermon.
But look at these men!
571
00:51:46,870 --> 00:51:48,700
They don't believe in our gods,
572
00:51:48,790 --> 00:51:51,290
that at this point
neither you nor I believe anymore,
573
00:51:51,330 --> 00:51:55,330
but rather in a god of justice and forgiveness.
Maybe that's why you want to expel them?
574
00:51:55,370 --> 00:51:59,950
In the name of Qué, Lúcio Máximo,
can you tarnish yourself with such infamy?
575
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:03,000
In the name of a whore
whose crimes made her empress?
576
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,540
Do not abuse our friendship.
577
00:52:05,620 --> 00:52:06,660
Disaster...
578
00:52:06,750 --> 00:52:10,700
See the results of your work.
The empress must be proud of you.
579
00:52:10,750 --> 00:52:13,910
- Be careful, Celso!
- No threat will stop me.
580
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,120
I have the proof in my hands
to accuse Messalina in the Senate.
581
00:52:17,250 --> 00:52:20,120
All Rome will hear my voice,
and his desire for power and money...
582
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:21,580
I'll shut you up forever!
583
00:52:21,660 --> 00:52:24,250
Don't kill him! You shouldn't hurt a friend.
584
00:52:24,290 --> 00:52:25,660
God does not love violence.
585
00:52:25,700 --> 00:52:29,620
Don't do something that
You may regret it for the rest of your life.
586
00:52:29,830 --> 00:52:32,660
Thank her. She saved you.
587
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:34,540
Messalina...
588
00:52:34,620 --> 00:52:37,290
Why are women born like this?!
589
00:52:37,660 --> 00:52:39,370
They are the fruits of an era.
590
00:52:39,450 --> 00:52:42,250
At a time when life
human has no value,
591
00:52:42,330 --> 00:52:44,200
the messalinas rule.
592
00:52:44,330 --> 00:52:46,830
Tomorrow the Senate
must decide whether Rome lives,
593
00:52:46,950 --> 00:52:50,040
or the principle of the end is ratified.
594
00:53:13,700 --> 00:53:16,330
You are serious. What are you thinking?
595
00:53:16,370 --> 00:53:19,000
Not what happened this morning.
596
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,750
In any case, I know you defended me.
597
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,250
Aulo Celso hates him.
598
00:53:24,370 --> 00:53:26,290
I feel part of the crowd.
599
00:53:26,330 --> 00:53:30,200
It is necessary to create popularity
with the rabble, don't you think?
600
00:53:30,330 --> 00:53:33,580
It's not just the little people
who he wants to impress.
601
00:53:33,700 --> 00:53:35,950
He will accuse you in the Senate.
602
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,830
He said he has proof of his mistakes.
603
00:53:51,450 --> 00:53:53,080
I'm not afraid of him.
604
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:56,040
The truth is not afraid
the lies of Aulo Celso.
605
00:53:56,620 --> 00:53:59,410
He is young and, moreover, a senator.
606
00:53:59,500 --> 00:54:02,410
There is no more time
in which the Senate could govern.
607
00:54:02,620 --> 00:54:05,370
The Republic is dead
because Julius Caesar killed her,
608
00:54:05,450 --> 00:54:09,160
and all republicans
they were exterminated in Philippi.
609
00:54:12,410 --> 00:54:15,540
But why talk about it now?
610
00:54:21,830 --> 00:54:23,450
But you can't enter. Have you gone crazy?
611
00:54:23,500 --> 00:54:25,370
Do you want me to be flogged? Stop!
612
00:54:25,450 --> 00:54:28,080
May I know what's going on?
613
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:29,750
Help, love!
614
00:54:29,830 --> 00:54:31,450
It saw? Because of you, they will punish me!
615
00:54:31,500 --> 00:54:33,620
Stop complaining and help me soon.
616
00:54:33,750 --> 00:54:37,200
Please. Caution
so it doesn't break! Pay attention.
617
00:54:37,410 --> 00:54:38,450
Hello!
618
00:54:38,500 --> 00:54:40,950
They want to explain to me
What are they doing at my house?
619
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,250
- I love, I...
- Be quiet! I explain myself.
620
00:54:44,370 --> 00:54:46,790
Well, I'm waiting for an answer.
621
00:54:46,870 --> 00:54:49,120
They kicked me out of my village,
they destroyed my house,
622
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,950
so I came to stay here with you.
There was nowhere else to go.
623
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,830
But have you gone crazy?
624
00:54:53,910 --> 00:54:58,040
No. I like your house.
I think I'll be fine here.
625
00:54:58,250 --> 00:55:01,290
Listen, honey. If it's a joke,
It's gone too far.
626
00:55:01,330 --> 00:55:03,870
If, on the contrary,
It was Aulo Celso who sent you...
627
00:55:03,950 --> 00:55:06,080
No, Aulo Celso doesn't know anything.
628
00:55:06,450 --> 00:55:09,200
I was very sad about what
happened among you the other day.
629
00:55:09,290 --> 00:55:11,370
He's a good man, you know?
And he has affection for you.
630
00:55:11,500 --> 00:55:13,160
I also have affection for him.
631
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,750
But what does this have to do with?
We're talking about you!
632
00:55:15,830 --> 00:55:20,000
Oh, don't worry about me.
I'll get ready without bothering you.
633
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:24,160
I will take care of your things and help
this poor old man taking care of the house.
634
00:55:24,330 --> 00:55:26,500
It's full of weeds.
635
00:55:26,750 --> 00:55:29,200
I'll keep an eye on him.
I suspect he sometimes steals from you.
636
00:55:29,290 --> 00:55:32,660
- I love? I-I swear...
- Don't swear it's a sin!
637
00:55:33,580 --> 00:55:35,410
But not so much;
your oaths are worthless.
638
00:55:35,750 --> 00:55:39,580
God, what have I done
to deserve such disgrace?
639
00:55:39,660 --> 00:55:43,790
- He burned my house down.
- But, look...
640
00:55:44,540 --> 00:55:46,290
Where are you going?!
641
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,580
I tripped.
642
00:55:59,830 --> 00:56:03,910
Back, back!
Make room, hold them back.
643
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:05,910
Calm down a little.
644
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,200
Calm down, calm down, back!
Don't push! Back!
645
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:28,200
They cut his throat.
646
00:56:28,500 --> 00:56:31,830
Someone confronted him in plain sight.
647
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,120
It could have been a suicide.
648
00:56:47,910 --> 00:56:52,000
Senator Aulo Celso committed suicide.
649
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,160
It was suicide!
650
00:57:00,580 --> 00:57:05,580
- Back, back!
- Silence!
651
00:57:05,790 --> 00:57:08,160
Enough of the nonsense!
652
00:57:11,370 --> 00:57:14,500
Senator Celso committed suicide.
653
00:57:14,660 --> 00:57:16,410
You killed him!
654
00:57:16,500 --> 00:57:19,830
He was the only honest one. God will punish!
655
00:57:19,910 --> 00:57:22,000
Stop. Back!
656
00:57:28,790 --> 00:57:32,700
Would you rather celebrate the death of Aulo Celso?
657
00:57:32,790 --> 00:57:34,910
You can go.
658
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,700
- Are you crazy?
- Not anymore.
659
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,790
I was crazy before,
crazy for believing in you,
660
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:50,620
crazy for silencing my conscience.
661
00:57:50,870 --> 00:57:52,950
You ordered Aulo Celso to be killed.
662
00:57:53,250 --> 00:57:57,250
Now I know why I was
So calm when I warned you about him.
663
00:57:57,660 --> 00:58:00,870
I didn't elevate you to this position
to insult me!
664
00:58:06,830 --> 00:58:08,870
On the contrary,
665
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,370
I wanted you to defend me.
666
00:58:12,660 --> 00:58:15,580
I have many enemies here in Rome,
667
00:58:16,330 --> 00:58:18,870
especially in the palace.
668
00:58:20,660 --> 00:58:22,830
Who killed Celso?
669
00:58:25,620 --> 00:58:27,950
Look into my eyes.
670
00:58:28,830 --> 00:58:32,000
Would you believe in me
If you said you took your own life?
671
00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:37,160
Celso was going to speak against you in the Senate.
672
00:58:40,450 --> 00:58:42,750
There was someone else who saw him,
673
00:58:43,500 --> 00:58:45,870
someone you respect.
674
00:58:47,330 --> 00:58:49,620
Lúcio Geta.
675
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,950
He was his friend, and yours too.
676
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:55,870
Ask him how Aulus Celsus died.
677
00:59:09,370 --> 00:59:13,080
No... Come back when you've spoken to Geta.
678
00:59:28,450 --> 00:59:32,160
I was scared. I feared that Messalina
order him to be arrested.
679
00:59:32,290 --> 00:59:34,200
Why would she do that?
680
00:59:34,330 --> 00:59:38,000
I saw you leave, and I had
Hatred and revenge in your face.
681
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:42,040
Aulo Celso committed suicide.
682
00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:46,790
- Messalina had nothing to do with it.
- It had nothing to do with it?
683
00:59:46,870 --> 00:59:49,700
When he went to the palace,
I feared what could happen to him.
684
00:59:49,790 --> 00:59:51,673
I prayed to God to help him
685
00:59:51,713 --> 00:59:53,613
to behave like
a just and compassionate man.
686
00:59:53,750 --> 00:59:57,080
- Because I feared your anger, but you...
- Shut up, you can't understand.
687
00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:58,580
Ah, yes, I understand too well.
688
00:59:58,660 --> 01:00:01,330
His indignation died
in the arms of the empress.
689
01:00:01,370 --> 01:00:03,750
- She smiled at you, and you fell at her feet.
- Shut up!
690
01:00:03,830 --> 01:00:06,410
Profaned with a hug
the memory of Aulo Celso.
691
01:00:06,500 --> 01:00:10,450
- With your cowardice, you denied everything he did!
- Shut up!
692
01:00:13,450 --> 01:00:15,790
Did I hurt you?
693
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:18,200
Forgive me.
694
01:00:18,410 --> 01:00:21,000
It is you who must forgive me.
695
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,000
I talk too much.
696
01:00:23,250 --> 01:00:25,950
And I say things that
You shouldn't even think.
697
01:00:26,330 --> 01:00:28,660
Now go to sleep.
698
01:00:29,790 --> 01:00:32,200
I want to be alone.
699
01:00:56,250 --> 01:00:58,200
Did you send for me?
700
01:00:58,370 --> 01:01:00,910
I hope I didn't wake you up.
701
01:01:02,450 --> 01:01:06,540
Those who fear revenge
of the dead, they do not sleep.
702
01:01:06,620 --> 01:01:09,250
I thought he was a brave man.
703
01:01:09,410 --> 01:01:13,750
Look at my hands! Burn
as if they were on fire.
704
01:01:13,870 --> 01:01:18,790
- It's the blood of a friend.
- They are precious, for my life.
705
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:24,700
You and I are linked
by the same blood, by the same secret.
706
01:01:25,450 --> 01:01:29,790
We need each other.
707
01:01:40,290 --> 01:01:44,870
If Lúcio Maximo asks you
how Aulus Celsus died,
708
01:01:44,950 --> 01:01:48,250
Swear to him that you took your own life.
709
01:01:48,580 --> 01:01:51,450
What if you don't believe me?
710
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:56,250
You'll believe it. He trusts you.
711
01:01:56,500 --> 01:01:59,040
And you need to trust me too.
712
01:02:00,290 --> 01:02:01,830
Messalina...
713
01:02:01,950 --> 01:02:05,120
You know I... I've always loved you.
714
01:02:05,290 --> 01:02:07,950
I always obeyed his wishes.
715
01:02:08,410 --> 01:02:12,910
I beg you: Stop,
stop while there is still time.
716
01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:18,870
But why should I stop now,
717
01:02:19,250 --> 01:02:21,620
that I have Rome in my hands?
718
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:24,580
Now...
719
01:02:24,700 --> 01:02:27,580
that a new life begins for us?
720
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,500
Slowly, slowly, lower it.
721
01:02:38,620 --> 01:02:41,200
That's it, like that. Let's go.
722
01:02:41,450 --> 01:02:43,910
There we will build a
magnificent staircase.
723
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,040
Here, a huge swimming pool.
724
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,870
And there, we will plant the forest.
The quarry is nearby.
725
01:02:48,950 --> 01:02:51,700
He will have a satrap's mansion,
and it will cost cheap.
726
01:02:51,750 --> 01:02:55,500
If only the land hadn't
cost 100 times its value...
727
01:02:55,580 --> 01:02:57,450
The empress knows how to charge.
728
01:02:57,580 --> 01:03:00,370
Who spoke of Messalina?
729
01:03:01,870 --> 01:03:05,450
See where the lands ended up
they promised us veterans!
730
01:03:05,540 --> 01:03:08,830
- And you fell for it.
- Maximo said they would be ours.
731
01:03:08,910 --> 01:03:11,830
They're all softies,
and Lúcio Maximus more than all.
732
01:03:11,910 --> 01:03:14,910
- And you don't say anything, Vibuleno?
- Oh, enough!
733
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:18,910
- Did Lúcio Maximo abandon you too?
- Take charge of your life.
734
01:03:20,910 --> 01:03:22,450
How stupid are animals!
735
01:03:22,580 --> 01:03:25,000
Look at this dove.
Instead of flying free through the sky,
736
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:29,540
prefer to be a prisoner in a house,
for having guaranteed food.
737
01:03:30,500 --> 01:03:33,540
Sorry, but there's nothing else to do
besides watering me like a vase?
738
01:03:33,620 --> 01:03:35,540
So much history,
for four drops of water!
739
01:03:35,580 --> 01:03:38,450
What does the source have to do with
If you are afraid of getting wet?
740
01:03:38,540 --> 01:03:41,080
Geta! I'm glad to see you.
741
01:03:42,620 --> 01:03:44,250
What it was? Are you feeling bad?
742
01:03:44,330 --> 01:03:46,660
No, it's nothing.
743
01:03:46,750 --> 01:03:49,450
I have to talk to you, Lúcio Máximo.
744
01:03:54,450 --> 01:03:58,250
- I ordered Aulo Celso to be killed.
- What are you saying?
745
01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:01,580
Let me talk.
746
01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:06,200
Violence and abuses were committed,
747
01:04:06,370 --> 01:04:08,500
under my command.
748
01:04:08,700 --> 01:04:13,410
I went against all conscience,
denying all principles.
749
01:04:14,700 --> 01:04:16,790
Messalina...
750
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,450
It stunned me with its beauty, it destroyed...
751
01:04:21,700 --> 01:04:24,200
my honor with your lust.
752
01:04:24,330 --> 01:04:28,290
- Geta, try to calm down.
- Don't worry about me.
753
01:04:29,330 --> 01:04:31,620
I just want your forgiveness.
754
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,370
The poison I took...
755
01:04:36,540 --> 01:04:39,750
It's already consuming my life.
756
01:04:39,950 --> 01:04:42,000
Listen...
757
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:45,200
Messalina wanted
that I could convince you...
758
01:04:45,450 --> 01:04:50,450
that Aulo Celso had committed suicide.
759
01:04:50,910 --> 01:04:53,330
Forgive me, Lúcio.
760
01:04:53,540 --> 01:04:56,620
And when they speak ill of Geta,
761
01:04:56,910 --> 01:05:02,830
at least one person will know
that I knew I was mistaken.
762
01:05:07,830 --> 01:05:12,000
The gods were
generous, allowing me...
763
01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:15,500
talk to you.
764
01:05:24,750 --> 01:05:26,290
I beg you, Mr. Tribune!
765
01:05:26,500 --> 01:05:28,326
Messalina doesn't want to see anyone.
766
01:05:28,426 --> 01:05:30,433
- She's going to punish me!
- I brought her a gift.
767
01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,760
It is at the entrance to the palace,
She can't refuse.
768
01:05:33,893 --> 01:05:36,213
- She has to see him.
- Don't come in, please!
769
01:05:43,700 --> 01:05:45,700
Release him.
770
01:05:45,950 --> 01:05:50,040
Forgive me, Lúcio Maximus,
if I was forced to take from our enemy
771
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,870
Such a barbaric procedure.
772
01:05:54,790 --> 01:05:56,660
I know why you came to the palace,
773
01:05:56,790 --> 01:05:59,750
and I also know what I brought
as a gift to Messalina.
774
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,830
I also had esteem
and respect for Lúcio Geta.
775
01:06:02,910 --> 01:06:05,000
She must see the man
which led to suicide.
776
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:09,450
You probably wouldn't make it out alive
from here after talking to Messalina.
777
01:06:09,580 --> 01:06:11,660
Your hands are clean, Lúcio Máximo,
778
01:06:11,790 --> 01:06:15,870
He's a good soldier, and now
Rome needs you more than ever.
779
01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:18,120
Your legionaries are scattered.
780
01:06:18,290 --> 01:06:21,370
Gather them and keep them ready.
781
01:06:21,540 --> 01:06:23,870
Now, you, Lúcio Maximo, don't hesitate.
782
01:06:24,370 --> 01:06:28,540
You know that what I ask of you is
only for the good of Claudius and the Empire.
783
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,120
I'll talk to Messalina, don't be afraid.
784
01:06:38,620 --> 01:06:42,450
Forgive me, august lady,
if I dared to disturb you.
785
01:06:50,910 --> 01:06:53,040
But the spectacle I must show you
786
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:57,000
deserves a few moments
of your precious time.
787
01:06:57,540 --> 01:07:00,750
I never appreciated irony. What is it about?
788
01:07:00,790 --> 01:07:05,000
Augusta lady, events
are frequently repeated.
789
01:07:24,830 --> 01:07:29,160
Events repeat themselves,
but sometimes they bring different lessons.
790
01:07:29,250 --> 01:07:31,450
Do you remember? One morning,
a long time ago,
791
01:07:31,500 --> 01:07:34,330
sent to call me
to show me a corpse.
792
01:07:34,450 --> 01:07:36,830
It was the sign that
Messalina had been born.
793
01:07:36,870 --> 01:07:41,040
Now, the body of Lúcio Geta,
who through his fault took his life,
794
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:45,290
could mean that his reign,
august lady, it is close to the end.
795
01:07:45,370 --> 01:07:48,580
How dare you?
I will make you regret this.
796
01:07:48,620 --> 01:07:52,120
No, Messalina. At this point,
you can't do it anymore.
797
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:57,250
Do you know who brought this corpse here?
798
01:07:57,370 --> 01:07:59,040
Licio Maximus.
799
01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:00,870
It's not true.
800
01:08:00,950 --> 01:08:02,830
- I don't believe you.
- Yes, him!
801
01:08:02,910 --> 01:08:06,500
He instructed me to say that this
It's the gift that suits you best.
802
01:08:06,620 --> 01:08:10,450
Said women like you,
Messalina, you have no right to love, to life,
803
01:08:10,540 --> 01:08:12,580
and that only in hatred and contempt
804
01:08:12,620 --> 01:08:16,080
may pass
the rest of your days.
805
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,450
Every memory of you throws him to shame,
806
01:08:18,540 --> 01:08:21,870
and only regrets not having fallen
like a soldier, in battle!
807
01:08:21,950 --> 01:08:24,370
You've said enough, Narcissus!
808
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:28,790
Get to know mine
revenge, and that of Claudius.
809
01:08:29,620 --> 01:08:31,540
You can't let them insult me like that.
810
01:08:31,580 --> 01:08:33,830
What do you want, for me to kill Narcissus?
811
01:08:33,870 --> 01:08:36,450
- Yes!
- And you think everything would be resolved that way?
812
01:08:36,540 --> 01:08:38,870
But you must do something.
You must defend yourself, understand?
813
01:08:38,910 --> 01:08:43,450
There is only one way out, but you must
make sure you always stay by my side.
814
01:08:43,540 --> 01:08:45,540
What do you want me to do?
815
01:08:45,620 --> 01:08:49,950
Abandon everything. Leave behind
crimes, conspiracies, betrayals.
816
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:55,250
- Do you want to renounce the throne and the empire?
- But what is power, Messalina?
817
01:08:55,500 --> 01:09:00,200
Can hold it in your hand
the water, or the air you breathe?
818
01:09:00,370 --> 01:09:03,410
It's something that continually
pursues and always evades.
819
01:09:03,450 --> 01:09:05,450
But you can't surrender like that!
820
01:09:05,540 --> 01:09:08,000
With Geta's death
The praetorians are fractured,
821
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:11,500
it will be easy for aristocrats
corrupt them! You must do something!
822
01:09:11,620 --> 01:09:13,870
I must have the strength to abandon everything,
823
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,410
enjoy the show again
of the Sun that appears behind a hill,
824
01:09:17,500 --> 01:09:19,330
or a flower that blooms.
825
01:09:19,580 --> 01:09:22,080
On Capri there is the villa that Tibério bequeathed to me,
826
01:09:22,250 --> 01:09:25,080
Maybe there we will find comfort
to the torments of the soul.
827
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:28,540
Listen to me, Messalina.
Why don't you come with me?
828
01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,450
You're crazy, Claudius.
829
01:09:33,410 --> 01:09:35,910
But I will not follow you in your madness.
830
01:09:55,540 --> 01:09:57,250
Caio S�lio...
831
01:10:00,580 --> 01:10:02,660
Caio S�lio!
832
01:10:04,700 --> 01:10:07,080
You? Messalina?
833
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:10,500
Yes, it's me. You're not dreaming.
834
01:10:10,620 --> 01:10:14,790
And what does it bring with it this time?
Caesar's wife?
835
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:22,160
- Another gift?
- This time, my gift is Rome!
836
01:10:22,660 --> 01:10:25,580
You and I will have
support from all classes.
837
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:29,370
- And Claudius?
- In Capri, or in the countryside.
838
01:10:29,500 --> 01:10:32,830
No, Messalina.
Exiles are dangerous.
839
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:36,500
Can rekindle nostalgia
and give rise to lamentations,
840
01:10:36,580 --> 01:10:39,370
allow hope of restoration.
841
01:10:39,450 --> 01:10:42,250
So what should I do with it?
842
01:10:47,370 --> 01:10:50,580
The dead are less dangerous.
843
01:10:50,750 --> 01:10:53,040
If Claudius died,
the people could rebel.
844
01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:54,660
That's what should happen!
845
01:10:54,700 --> 01:10:57,700
Your death will become
in the symbol of our rebellion.
846
01:10:57,790 --> 01:11:02,000
We will fulfill a fair duty,
and we will not plot to conquer the world.
847
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:04,330
It's too dangerous. Wait.
848
01:11:04,750 --> 01:11:07,080
There must be another solution.
849
01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:09,290
Claudius must die!
850
01:11:09,370 --> 01:11:12,450
Only then will I join my forces with yours.
851
01:11:12,540 --> 01:11:14,290
When you have made up your mind,
852
01:11:14,450 --> 01:11:17,580
light the big brazier
from the palace garden.
853
01:11:17,910 --> 01:11:20,700
This will be the signal
that I will be waiting for.
854
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:26,370
And finally, we can
march together, as I always wanted.
855
01:11:28,700 --> 01:11:30,870
Without me he wouldn't know how to cope.
856
01:11:30,910 --> 01:11:33,040
In relation to the house, that is.
857
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:36,450
Never had things so tidy,
the weapons so bright,
858
01:11:36,500 --> 01:11:38,950
and the servants stopped stealing from him!
859
01:11:40,870 --> 01:11:43,910
You know, I'm happy
that the chief called you, Vibulenus.
860
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:45,620
Sometimes I don't understand.
861
01:11:45,700 --> 01:11:48,370
But you know him
so many years ago, and the boss...
862
01:11:48,450 --> 01:11:52,410
May I know why you carry on
calling him "boss"? She is not his slave.
863
01:11:52,500 --> 01:11:56,200
Look. Men divide
between bosses and husbands.
864
01:11:56,330 --> 01:11:59,870
I fear that with me Lúcio Maximus
will continue to be the boss.
865
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:01,200
And why?
866
01:12:01,250 --> 01:12:04,580
You're a little annoying,
But all things considered, it's not bad at all.
867
01:12:04,620 --> 01:12:05,580
Thanks.
868
01:12:05,660 --> 01:12:08,660
But have you seen Messalina? Yes, she is a woman!
869
01:12:08,790 --> 01:12:12,660
But I wouldn't be her
not for all the gold in the world.
870
01:12:12,870 --> 01:12:17,950
Forget Messalina. It was a
ugly story, and now it's all over.
871
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:21,160
Besides, now it's up to you
make him forget her.
872
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:24,410
Stop! It can't pass.
873
01:12:24,540 --> 01:12:26,580
- It can't pass!
- But it's my home!
874
01:12:26,620 --> 01:12:29,120
- This is the house of the consul Licio Maximus.
- Well, anyway.
875
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:32,000
- Was there something to him?
- Nothing, for now.
876
01:12:32,160 --> 01:12:33,700
Stay still.
877
01:12:35,450 --> 01:12:37,370
Don't do nonsense.
878
01:12:38,700 --> 01:12:40,870
It's an official visit, there's even an escort.
879
01:12:40,910 --> 01:12:43,790
Messalina, you should imagine.
I thought I left him alone,
880
01:12:43,830 --> 01:12:46,080
That naive guy is going to fall for her again.
881
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:47,330
Let's hope not.
882
01:12:47,870 --> 01:12:50,330
Licio, please come back to me.
883
01:12:50,370 --> 01:12:52,080
I beg you, don't leave me alone now.
884
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:56,120
Licio, you are the only one
that can help me at this moment.
885
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,750
It's not possible. It is no longer possible.
886
01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:00,700
I loved you, it's true,
887
01:13:00,750 --> 01:13:03,450
It is a guilt for which
I hope to be forgiven.
888
01:13:03,620 --> 01:13:05,540
I can't have mercy.
889
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:09,790
It's not enough for me to drag myself to your feet
as the last woman of Suburra?
890
01:13:09,870 --> 01:13:12,200
You're not much different from them.
891
01:13:17,660 --> 01:13:20,540
Remember, I'm still Claudius' wife.
892
01:13:20,700 --> 01:13:23,370
Then order them to kill me.
893
01:13:35,290 --> 01:13:36,870
What should we do, arrest him?
894
01:13:36,910 --> 01:13:39,160
Kill him, too. Let's go back to the palace.
895
01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:40,250
I think...
896
01:13:40,330 --> 01:13:43,910
What more do you want from Lúcio M�ximo?
Isn't it enough that you ruined his life?
897
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:45,830
How dare you talk to me like that?
898
01:13:45,910 --> 01:13:48,620
- Who are you, and what are you to him?
- I don't know that yet...
899
01:13:48,700 --> 01:13:51,330
But I know you're dear to me
like no one has ever been.
900
01:13:51,450 --> 01:13:53,830
See, I would give my life for him.
901
01:13:54,330 --> 01:13:58,080
I will give the possibility to carry out
your desire sooner than you think.
902
01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:00,200
Arrest this fool.
903
01:14:01,290 --> 01:14:02,830
Licio!
904
01:14:02,910 --> 01:14:05,500
Help me!
905
01:14:23,540 --> 01:14:27,000
What are you waiting for?
Quick, follow them!
906
01:14:39,450 --> 01:14:41,330
For now, we are safe.
907
01:14:41,410 --> 01:14:43,620
What a beautiful gallop!
908
01:14:43,870 --> 01:14:47,290
I had never galloped
so much in my life.
909
01:14:49,700 --> 01:14:51,950
You can't forget her, can you?
910
01:14:52,370 --> 01:14:55,620
Yes, she is very beautiful. It's not like me.
911
01:14:56,080 --> 01:15:00,790
But who knows how much cinnabar and creams
Orientals don't help your beautiful face!
912
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:04,160
Me, on the contrary, if they throw me
in a source I look the same way.
913
01:15:04,250 --> 01:15:06,870
Yes, Sylvia, you are much more than her.
914
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:08,080
Yes...
915
01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:09,910
And yet she has his love.
916
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:13,620
Is this nothing to you?
For a woman in love, this is everything!
917
01:15:13,700 --> 01:15:17,410
Sylvia, what are you saying?
I don't love Messalina anymore.
918
01:15:17,910 --> 01:15:21,000
You are a sincere girl,
capricious, and sometimes irritating,
919
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:22,700
but most of all a girl.
920
01:15:22,830 --> 01:15:25,750
Maximum, I'm tired of being called a girl.
921
01:15:25,950 --> 01:15:27,790
I'm 17 years old.
922
01:15:28,580 --> 01:15:30,410
And I'm in love with you.
923
01:15:30,500 --> 01:15:32,080
Life is not that simple.
924
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:34,000
Everything can't be solved...
925
01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:37,290
with two words and their
tender teenage feelings.
926
01:15:37,370 --> 01:15:39,620
Yes, on the contrary!
It should be resolved like this.
927
01:15:39,700 --> 01:15:41,910
Because that's right.
928
01:15:42,450 --> 01:15:44,450
Listen to me for a moment, just one moment.
929
01:15:44,540 --> 01:15:46,790
My people leave for Circeo.
930
01:15:46,910 --> 01:15:51,040
We will board there and go
away from this corrupt city.
931
01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:52,410
You will come with us.
932
01:15:52,500 --> 01:15:55,620
We will be together forever
and we will be happy, happy!
933
01:15:56,160 --> 01:15:59,080
No, Sylvia. I can't leave Rome.
934
01:16:00,790 --> 01:16:03,830
There is even more intrigue,
maybe even more revenge and blood.
935
01:16:03,910 --> 01:16:06,410
How will I marry a man
Who only thinks about killing?
936
01:16:06,450 --> 01:16:09,330
- But who said anything about getting married?
- Me.
937
01:16:09,410 --> 01:16:10,500
What did you think?
938
01:16:10,540 --> 01:16:13,700
That I would fall in love with a man
without thinking about marriage?
939
01:16:19,330 --> 01:16:22,040
But I'm unlucky, that's what I am.
940
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:23,910
And you, are a soldier.
941
01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:27,250
One should always be suspicious
of a soldier, my grandfather said.
942
01:16:27,330 --> 01:16:28,580
And he was right.
943
01:16:28,620 --> 01:16:32,330
Be wary of soldiers,
from me, and from anyone who wants to kill you.
944
01:16:32,540 --> 01:16:34,290
Wait for me here.
945
01:16:34,500 --> 01:16:36,580
Glaucous!
946
01:16:36,750 --> 01:16:39,250
- Márcio, Lúcio Maximo has arrived!
- Lúcio Maximo!
947
01:16:39,290 --> 01:16:41,500
I didn't expect you today,
but it is the gods who send you.
948
01:16:41,540 --> 01:16:44,500
Stefano brought the weapons
and wants to talk to you about the horses.
949
01:16:44,580 --> 01:16:47,910
- And who is this charming nymph?
- A Christian cousin of mine.
950
01:16:47,950 --> 01:16:51,580
I will entrust it to... you.
Take her back to her people.
951
01:16:51,750 --> 01:16:54,580
Well, you come with me. We have to
warn others to prepare.
952
01:16:54,620 --> 01:16:57,830
The situation could explode
from one day to the next.
953
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:00,370
I want to be with you. I can help you.
954
01:17:00,450 --> 01:17:02,200
No, girl, you stay here.
955
01:17:02,290 --> 01:17:04,910
Difficult days await you, you know?
956
01:17:22,290 --> 01:17:24,620
Take this to Valéria Messalina.
957
01:17:29,620 --> 01:17:32,370
During my absence,
I entrust Rome to your hands.
958
01:17:32,450 --> 01:17:35,790
Please note that the State and
the lives of citizens are respected.
959
01:17:35,830 --> 01:17:40,200
We will not rest, Claudius.
But Rome will long for his return.
960
01:17:40,750 --> 01:17:42,540
Go to Messalina, Narciso.
961
01:17:42,620 --> 01:17:47,830
Talk to her, make her forgive,
and try to convince her to abandon everything.
962
01:17:48,250 --> 01:17:51,370
Maybe we can still
be happy together.
963
01:18:11,540 --> 01:18:13,250
Claudius leaves, august lady.
964
01:18:13,330 --> 01:18:16,660
Go to Ac�lia with a small escort
visit the aqueduct work.
965
01:18:16,750 --> 01:18:18,410
Are you ready?
966
01:18:18,540 --> 01:18:22,580
With the most trusted praetorians,
I will surprise you near the waterfall.
967
01:18:22,660 --> 01:18:25,330
Before the sun sets,
it will all be over.
968
01:18:28,750 --> 01:18:30,200
So...
969
01:18:30,290 --> 01:18:33,000
Your men will fight better for it.
970
01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,790
For me there will be no reward
greater than gaining your favors.
971
01:18:36,910 --> 01:18:38,790
There will be that too, Fanteio.
972
01:18:38,870 --> 01:18:42,200
I have already recommended you to be
chief of the praetorians.
973
01:18:43,500 --> 01:18:47,250
Now, go, and may luck help you.
974
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:23,000
Stop! Where are you going?
975
01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:24,750
Returning to my mistress.
976
01:19:24,790 --> 01:19:27,500
Who ordered
to light this brazier?
977
01:19:27,790 --> 01:19:29,330
I don't know anything.
978
01:19:29,450 --> 01:19:32,580
You love me too much,
I'm just a humble servant.
979
01:19:32,750 --> 01:19:35,910
- I'm nothing.
- She's a liar! And treacherous.
980
01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:38,700
What are you hiding behind your back?
981
01:19:38,830 --> 01:19:40,580
What are you doing? Stop!
982
01:19:41,250 --> 01:19:43,200
- Damn!
- No!
983
01:19:43,290 --> 01:19:45,500
- Speak!
- No!
984
01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:50,540
Speak! Where did that come from?
985
01:19:50,660 --> 01:19:53,120
It was a message to
Messalina, right? What was written?
986
01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:55,120
Who gave it to you?
987
01:19:55,200 --> 01:19:57,950
This abrupt exit
of Fanteio and his guard...
988
01:19:58,040 --> 01:20:00,450
What do you know? Speak!
989
01:20:00,540 --> 01:20:01,540
He arrives!
990
01:20:01,580 --> 01:20:04,450
It came from Caio S�lio's house, didn't it?
991
01:20:09,500 --> 01:20:11,200
Speak!
992
01:20:11,410 --> 01:20:13,250
No!
993
01:20:18,620 --> 01:20:20,040
- He arrives!
- Speak!
994
01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:23,120
No! I will tell you everything.
995
01:20:23,410 --> 01:20:26,620
The Praetorians
They're going to attack Claudius in the river!
996
01:20:26,790 --> 01:20:29,790
Lúcio Maximo
must be notified immediately!
997
01:20:49,540 --> 01:20:51,790
- What there was?
- They're attacking us.
998
01:20:51,830 --> 01:20:54,700
Quickly, everyone to the waterfall!
999
01:21:02,370 --> 01:21:06,080
Praetorians, forward!
1000
01:21:06,910 --> 01:21:09,040
Forward!
1001
01:21:19,290 --> 01:21:21,500
Move forward!
1002
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:32,370
Mino and his men, up there!
1003
01:21:33,250 --> 01:21:35,080
The others to the rocks!
1004
01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,160
Forward! Everyone get down!
1005
01:21:44,290 --> 01:21:46,200
You, follow me!
1006
01:22:11,950 --> 01:22:13,790
Let me see.
1007
01:22:14,500 --> 01:22:16,200
The praetorians.
1008
01:22:16,290 --> 01:22:18,910
They elevated me to the throne, and now...
1009
01:22:19,370 --> 01:22:21,000
They want my death.
1010
01:22:21,950 --> 01:22:25,950
�, the contradiction
It is inherent to human nature.
1011
01:22:27,870 --> 01:22:29,330
Read.
1012
01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:32,950
I walked aimlessly along the Via Sacra, thinking...
1013
01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,160
Forward!
1014
01:23:00,910 --> 01:23:02,830
Forward!
1015
01:23:06,370 --> 01:23:08,040
Forward!
1016
01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:14,080
They're attacking us!
We are surrounded! Get on your horses!
1017
01:23:16,500 --> 01:23:19,580
Quick, retreat!
1018
01:25:53,500 --> 01:25:56,830
We arrived just in time, Claudius.
You're safe.
1019
01:26:00,540 --> 01:26:02,750
Hey you, Plautus.
1020
01:26:04,620 --> 01:26:07,450
Quick. Put on the uniform
from one of the praetorians
1021
01:26:07,540 --> 01:26:11,160
and run to Rome to the house of Caius Silius.
You must send a message.
1022
01:26:11,250 --> 01:26:13,540
Say it was Fanteio who sent it.
1023
01:26:13,830 --> 01:26:15,620
Okay.
1024
01:26:16,450 --> 01:26:19,790
- What are you doing?
- Trust me once again,
1025
01:26:20,080 --> 01:26:21,870
Divine Claudius.
1026
01:26:23,750 --> 01:26:27,870
I thank you, consul.
I owe him my life and the empire.
1027
01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:32,080
Let's go back to Rome.
This day is not over yet.
1028
01:26:38,790 --> 01:26:40,450
It was a brief and violent battle.
1029
01:26:40,500 --> 01:26:44,290
Claudius offered without fear
his neck to the sword that attacked him.
1030
01:26:44,500 --> 01:26:46,290
And he didn't suffer.
1031
01:26:46,370 --> 01:26:49,500
Costume was carried out by
chase the last survivors.
1032
01:26:49,830 --> 01:26:53,370
No one will ever know
the origin of this massacre.
1033
01:26:53,500 --> 01:26:56,250
Rome is ours, Divine Messalina.
1034
01:26:56,330 --> 01:26:59,160
From now on,
a new era will begin for Rome.
1035
01:26:59,410 --> 01:27:02,540
And the fame of Julius Caesar will be overshadowed.
1036
01:27:13,250 --> 01:27:16,450
Let's toast to the health of imperial Rome!
1037
01:27:16,540 --> 01:27:18,700
To your triumph, Messalina!
1038
01:27:19,750 --> 01:27:22,500
- It's nobility!
- Finally a young and beautiful Caesar!
1039
01:27:22,580 --> 01:27:24,500
To the new emperor!
1040
01:27:27,910 --> 01:27:31,910
I always imagined the day like this
of our triumph, Messalina.
1041
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:36,120
And now, thanks to us, the aristocrats
and the people will march side by side
1042
01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:38,120
for the first time
in the history of the empire.
1043
01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:43,200
Tonight we will decide fate
from Rome, and I will serve my best wine.
1044
01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,660
Caio S�lio! Caio S�lio!
1045
01:27:48,750 --> 01:27:50,700
We were massacred in Acália!
1046
01:27:50,750 --> 01:27:53,750
Fanteio died and Claudius is alive!
1047
01:27:53,830 --> 01:27:56,040
Alive!
1048
01:28:00,410 --> 01:28:03,200
Messalina, get out of here
and return to your quarters.
1049
01:28:04,540 --> 01:28:07,580
Calm! Grab your best weapons!
1050
01:28:07,700 --> 01:28:09,660
Prepare to resist.
1051
01:28:09,750 --> 01:28:13,870
Praetorians! Close the exits
and don't let anyone in.
1052
01:28:13,950 --> 01:28:15,660
You! Run to the entrance
1053
01:28:15,700 --> 01:28:19,290
and make others resist
until the last breath. Quick!
1054
01:29:35,330 --> 01:29:37,620
Take it. Fight like a man!
1055
01:29:38,450 --> 01:29:40,410
Who do you want to kill, Lúcio Maximo?
1056
01:29:41,370 --> 01:29:44,000
Your sword is already dripping with blood...
1057
01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:47,410
You also killed for Messalina.
1058
01:29:47,500 --> 01:29:50,160
Here we are not on the battlefield,
1059
01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:52,370
where whoever kills is a hero.
1060
01:29:52,450 --> 01:29:55,750
Here is the tyrant who kills the tyrant,
1061
01:29:55,910 --> 01:30:00,330
and so forever,
as long as Rome has an emperor.
1062
01:30:00,910 --> 01:30:03,700
It's over, Lúcio Maximo.
1063
01:30:04,040 --> 01:30:07,330
It's over for me, who dies.
1064
01:30:07,700 --> 01:30:12,950
And also for you, who still live.
1065
01:31:17,750 --> 01:31:20,370
What are you waiting for? Kill me!
1066
01:31:20,500 --> 01:31:24,830
- He must die as he lived.
- No!
1067
01:31:29,330 --> 01:31:31,250
No, Narcissus.
1068
01:31:31,370 --> 01:31:33,620
You must stain yourself with my blood.
1069
01:31:33,750 --> 01:31:35,500
Onward, strike me!
1070
01:31:35,580 --> 01:31:38,000
I don't give you my courage.
1071
01:31:38,950 --> 01:31:41,250
Herb tea. Fulfill your revenge.
1072
01:31:41,290 --> 01:31:43,870
Don't kill her!
1073
01:31:58,410 --> 01:32:01,750
Licio... Licio...
1074
01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:06,000
You are the only one who loved me.
1075
01:32:07,370 --> 01:32:09,160
And I...
1076
01:32:09,870 --> 01:32:12,080
I loved only you.
1077
01:32:25,450 --> 01:32:29,200
She had to die...
Why Rome must live.
1078
01:32:46,950 --> 01:32:49,040
At this price...
1079
01:32:49,580 --> 01:32:52,040
Rome can die too!
1080
01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:07,370
Hallelujah.
1081
01:33:07,950 --> 01:33:14,660
Hallelujah.
1082
01:33:15,370 --> 01:33:21,120
Hallelujah.
1083
01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:28,330
Hail Mary.
1084
01:33:29,870 --> 01:33:35,580
Hallelujah.
1085
01:33:35,950 --> 01:33:37,620
Sylvia!
1086
01:33:38,000 --> 01:33:39,870
Sylvia!
1087
01:33:53,250 --> 01:33:57,450
My prayers were answered.
I can't ask for anything more.
1088
01:34:22,870 --> 01:34:25,230
