The single greatest piece of cinematography for any screen ever. The. Greatest. Show. Ever. Made. This is hands down my favorite show ever, if you haven't guessed that yet. This is the telling of Julius Ceaser, Mark Antony, Cleopatra, Octavius, Cato and so many immortal legends from history. A great telling of the story too. Very well put together. Acting is top notch, there is no other Ceaser in my mind but this man. If you are even remotely interested in history, Roman history, great and compelling periods of history, or just a damn good show, watch this series, particularly season one. Season two is unfortunately rushed as for unexplained reasons, HBO cancelled this the best show they have ever made by a mile. Many call it the forerunner to Game of Thrones, but don't let that fool you. It's a pretty accurate period piece of real history. There are some inaccuracies, for instance, the two main characters are real people, but from the 10th legion, I believe, not the 13th, and much of their story is embellished, as we only have their names in history but for a brief account by Ceaser himself, in his telling of his Gallic war campaign. Minor footnotes aside, do yourself a favor. WATCH THIS SHOW!
