Sinopsis: La bella Cleopatra no lleva demasiado tiempo en el trono de Egipto cuando recibe la visita del emperador romano Julio César. Entre ellos surge la amistad rápidamente, dando lugar a un romance que además tendrá su lado provechoso en términos políticos y militares. (FILMAFFINITY)


El amor del emperador.Durante su campaña militar, Julio César llega hasta Egipto, donde mantiene una historia de amor con su mítica emperatriz, la bella Cleopatra.
Una de las mejores versiones de la célebre historia de amor entre Cleopatra y Julio César. Esto se debe a un ingenioso guión del dramaturgo George Bernard Shaw, así como a los brillantes actores protagonistas. La emperatriz de Egipto está encarnada por la bella Vivien Leigh, mítica protagonista de Lo que el viento se llevó, mientras que César está interpretado por Claude Rains (Casablanca, Encadenados) (DeCine21).

AMG SYNOPSIS: George Bernard Shaw adapted his own play for the screen in this blithe film version of the romance between Caesar (Claude Rains) and Cleopatra (Vivien Leigh). Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra are merely Henry Higgins and Eliza Doolittle cast back into ancient times with Caesar doting with admiration and burgeoning love upon Cleopatra and expostulating, "You have been growing up since the Sphinx introduced us the other night." The story is a simple one concerning Caesar instructing Cleopatra on how to act like a queen. But Cleopatra is left cold by Caesar and his blatherings. -- Paul Brenner
AMG REVIEW: In its time, Caesar and Cleopatra was the most lavish British film ever produced and was both a financial and critical disappointment. Viewed today, the flaws are obvious, but its virtues are also more apparent. On the debit side, the film is wildly overproduced with all of the money spent on spectacle getting in the way of what at heart is a character study cum sociological tract. Author George Bernard Shaw is known for writing "talky" plays. Those who savor his sharp wit, incisive observations, and marvelous facility with words will find much to enjoy in Caesar. But those who believe that movies are a medium that need to tell stories in as visual a manner as possible will largely be bored by Caesar -- and not without reason, as Gabriel Pascal has directed in a lumbering and plodding manner almost throughout. The stars are well cast, with Vivien Leigh an alluring and fiery Cleopatra and Claude Rains appropriately cynical and withering as Caesar. And there's able support from the delicious Flora Robson and a virile Stewart Granger. Ultimately, there's both good and bad in Caesar, and a viewer's reaction to it will largely depend upon his willingness to sit through an elephantine production to enjoy Shaw's remarkable wordplay. -- Craig Butler
