Fall of the Roman Empire
About the Film:

Featuring digitally remastered picture and sound, this beloved film, produced by Samuel Bronston (El Cid) and written by then-blacklisted writer Ben Barzman (El Cid), is proudly featured in
THE MIRIAM COLLECTION. Helmed by acclaimed director Anthony Mann (Spartacus, El Cid), THE FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE features captivating performances from Oscar winners Alec Guinness (The Bridge on the River Kwai, A Passage to India) and Sophia Loren (Two Women, El Cid), Golden Globe winners Omar Sharif (Doctor Zhivago, Lawrence of Arabia), Stephen Boyd (Ben-Hur, Fantastic Voyage) and James Mason (A Star Is Born, Julius Ceasar) and Christopher Plummer (The Sound of Music). In the definitive story on how the great civilization of Rome began to decline, the film follows two men battling for the power of the Empire and the shattering plight of a people living on the brink of a political abyss. Nominated for an Academy Award and garnering a Golden Globe * for Best Original Music Score, THE FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE boasts the record for the largest outdoor film set ever built - the reconstructed Roman Forum measured in at 1312 feet by 754 feet with the entire set covering over 55 acres.
