BLU-RAY FEATURES: Bloodlines – An inter-active on-screen guide; Enhanced ‘All Roads Lead to Rome.
FOUR HUNDRED years after the founding of the Republic, Rome is the wealthiest city in the world, a cosmopolitan metropolis of one million people.
The Republic was founded on principles of shared power and fierce personal competition, never allowing one man to seize overall control. But now, these foundations are crumbling, eaten away by corruption and excess.
An intimate drama of love and betrayal, masters and slaves, husbands and wives, Rome chronicles the epic times that saw the fall of a Republic and the creation of a new Empire.
Blood thirsty, sex thirsty, power thirsty, the Romans were not a civilisation to do things half-heartedly and this compelling drama is no exception.
Spending $150 million on the production, the series was shot on beautiful locations in and around Italy and the world famous Cinecitta Studios on the largest standing film set in the world over five acres and six sound stages, in a no-expense spared journey back in time to ancient Rome.
A smash that captivated four million viewers when originally broadcast on the BBC and over 400,000 units sold to date on DVD, Rome is a strong piece of cinematic television making it an essential Blu-ray.
Created by John Millius (Big Wednesday), William Macdonald and Bruno Heller (The Mentalist), the series boasts outstanding direction from Michael Apted, Alan Poul, Allen Coulter and Adam Davidson as well as Steve Shill (The Wire),
Rome: The Complete Blu-ray Collection is released on Blu-ray on Monday, November 16, making it the perfect addition to anyone’s Christmas list!
