TV Series DVD

The bad news is that there is a lot of gratuitous sex and nudity. It was a bit difficult getting around that at first, but once I was able to do that and get into the story, I was hooked. The writers really created an intricate story that showed the life of Rome from the Imperial perspective to the view of the most lowly slaves. The story moves along with realism, excitement, and breath taking beauty. If you choose to watch the subtitled version, you get insight into why the characters are doing what they are doing. This adds another dimension to what you are watching that keeps it so much more interesting. If you are like me and can't get enough, you can watch it again with the director's commentary and get yet ANOTHER perspective on the acting, filming, motivation, etc. I've watched the whole series about 3 times now and followed that up with a trip to Rome, so I am obviously a big fan. Loved it and highly recommend it.Get more detail about Rome: The Complete Series.
