Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 11/11/2008

Amazon.com:
"Welcome to Nero's House of Women" greets a concubine to a slave girl, Lygia (Deborah Kerr). Later this self-same greeter reveals that she, too, like Lygia, is really a fellow Christian neophyte. And it's that mixture of tawdry Hollywood sex and a strong Christian message that makes this film an enjoyable "gentiles and gladiators" flick. Marcus Vinicius returns home after conquering the Britons to find that Rome is infected with a crazy new sect called Christians and that his beloved emperor Nero (Peter Ustinov, roly-poly and wicked) has become increasingly wacky. Marcus tries his centurion wiles on Lygia, and she's smitten, but she's also a Christian convert and begs Marcus not to force her to choose between him and her god. The Christians have a tough go of it, with martyrdom in the Coliseum as punishment for belonging to the new religion in town. Though three hours long, director Mervyn LeRoy's film always has something going on. It could help you enjoyably kill any rainy Sunday afternoon. --Keith Simanton

Why couldn't the American Version have done that.

A classic worth collecting as computer generated movies today just don't match the REAL casts of hundreds in a scene and the lavish costumes and sets used in these grand displays portrayed. Love the movie and hope others will enjoy who have never seen it.

Rating: - Wonderful spectacle, but way too short for what the story tries to tell
A beautiful print of this good film. The film is not quite as good as the original book though. But decent, considering that Mervyn Leroy was behind the wheel of this super-production, so it could hardly fail. The best is the crisp and beautiful cinematography, the real sets, the colors, the whole spectacle of it. The weakest is the shortage of running time: the story has been shortened way to much from the original. There is no time for transitions, no character development. The heroine meets the ...
