Thanks for posting this Samuel Bronston Epic. They don't make movies like this anymore with a cast of thousands and not CGI effects. A great screenplay with great actors and the very beautiful Sophia Loren at the peak of her beauty. What's not to like?

One of the top roman epics if not the top in my book of all times. They spent over 20 million on this film and everywhere you see a chance to put gold its real. The buildings were real and you could walk in them. For some reason it tanked at the box office and it bankrupted Samuel Bronston's Productions. I've seen this many, many times. I love this film. Just look at the beautiful wardrobe and set attention to detail. Sophia Loren got one million dollars to be in the film in 1964. Christopher Plummer got the role in sound of music because of his outstanding portrayal of Commodous in this film and what a career he has had. That laugh was simply incredible towards the end when he was speaking to Livius. Thank you for posting this version of the film on youtube.

Attila (/?æt?l?, ??t?l?/; fl. circa 406–453), frequently called Attila the Hun, was the ruler of the Huns from 434 until his death in March 453. He was also the leader of a tribal empire consisting of Huns, Ostrogoths, and Alans among others, on the territory of Central and Eastern Europe.

During his reign, he was one of the most feared enemies of the Western and Eastern Roman Empires. He crossed the Danube twice and plundered the Balkans, but was unable to take Constantinople. His unsuccessful campaign in Persia was followed in 441 by an invasion of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, the success of which emboldened Attila to invade the West.^[3] He also attempted to conquer Roman Gaul (modern France), crossing the Rhine in 451 and marching as far as Aurelianum (Orléans) before being defeated at the Battle of the Catalaunian Plains.

He subsequently invaded Italy, devastating the northern provinces, but was unable to take Rome. He planned for further campaigns against the Romans, but died in 453. After Attila's death, his close adviser, Ardaric of the Gepids, led a Germanic revolt against Hunnic rule, after which the Hunnic Empire quickly collapsed.

 

Appearance and character

 

Figure of Attila
in a museum in Hungary.

There is no surviving first-hand account of Attila's appearance, but there is a possible second-hand source provided by Jordanes, who cites a description given by Priscus.^[4][5]

He was a man born into the world to shake the nations, the scourge of all lands, who in some way terrified all mankind by the dreadful rumors noised abroad concerning him. He was haughty in his walk, rolling his eyes hither and thither, so that the power of his proud spirit appeared in the movement of his body. He was indeed a lover of war, yet restrained in action, mighty in counsel, gracious to suppliants and lenient to those who were once received into his protection. Short of stature, with a broad chest and a large head; his eyes were small, his beard thin and sprinkled with grey; and he had a flat nose and tanned skin, showing evidence of his origin.^{[6]:182–183}

Some scholars have suggested that this description is typically East Asian, because it has all the combined features that fit the physical type of people from Eastern Asia, and Attila's ancestors may have come from there.^[5][7]:202 Other historians also believed that the same descriptions were also evident on some Scythian people.^[8][9]

The Romans were fat and lazy by the time of Constantine, stuffed full of government subsidized grain, grown with slave labor in the colonies. The emperors were paying soldiers with counterfeit coins, and that started inflation. It's a wonder the empire lasted as long as it did.
