Quo Vadis (1951)
MGM/UA

Sleeve Sypnosis:
All the splendour and savagery of the world's wickedest city.

A motion milestone,'Quo Vadis' has all the ingredients of entertainment at its most spectacular - a cast of thousands, breathtaking settings, magnificent and a menagerie of exotic animals as massive as it is fearsome.

Against a backdrop of triumphant armies on the march, bacchanalian feasts and ritual death in the huge 'Circus Maximus,' the movie tells the story of the birth of Christianity in the corrupt and extravagant city of Imperial Rome. Peter Ustinov stars as the pompous Emperor Nero, alongside Robert Tayor, as the young Roman warrior, whose love for a beatutiful Christian hostage, played by Deborah Kerr, inspires him to lead a revolt against Nero. As Rome burns, in one of the movie's most memorable scenes, the first seeds of revolution are sown and before the film's magnificent climax we witness the end of tyrannical Emperor's reign and the beginning of Christianity.

'Quo Vadis' is a triumph in sight, sound and sensation Don't miss it.
