00:02:49 He thought I wouldn't find him here.
00:02:52 But what force on earth could
00:02:56 Imagined what it is to be mother of Nero.
00:03:02 The same thing happens every time:
00:03:04 The moment when Rome is in a crisis,
00:03:07 Nero... Nobody knows him better than I.
00:03:11 I know what goes on in that villa of his...
00:03:14 ...where he is working on "state affairs".
00:03:18 Here come the heroic Roman legions...
00:03:22 Sleeping with the rabble, playing dice...
00:03:25 Instead of defending the borders...
00:03:29 ...they use their spears to catch fish.
00:03:32 My son wasn't always like that.
00:03:37 But he got under a bad influence.
00:03:40 That is why I have prepared a surprise...
00:03:48 Agrippina. Help, Agrippina is coming!
00:03:53 Agrippina is here! Help!
00:04:14 Halt.
00:04:32 Present arms! Attention!
00:04:38 - You cannot enter.
00:04:42 Evidently the young centurion
00:04:47 You are Augusta Agrippina, the mother of Nero.
00:04:50 - And I should not be allowed to enter?
00:04:56 Yes, it is purple.
00:04:58 Nero has forbidden anyone
00:05:03 A button is missing. It's a disgrace.
00:05:07 Think about your career.
00:05:12 - Yes, in Padua.
00:05:18 Germans, don't camp too near to the villa...
00:05:21 ... otherwise my son might think
00:05:25 - Is it safe for you to enter alone?
00:05:30 - My secret weapon.
00:05:33 Yes, I always keep it with me these days.
00:05:36 - You will also find Seneca on your path.
00:05:40 You disgust my feet, you disgust my hands.
00:05:45 You make me wish I was a hunchback...
00:05:47 ... You make me loose all my teeth.
00:05:53 This is how the coward fears death.
00:05:55 But philosophers, like me, regard
00:06:01 - It is Agrippina.
00:06:04 - Impossible! It is not a hallucination?
00:06:13 Oh, my dear Agrippina.
00:06:18 - You look as young and beautiful as ever.
00:06:23 How can you say such a thing...
00:06:26 about your son and your dearest friend?
00:06:29 - You gave orders to keep me out.
00:06:33 - It's a strange misunderstanding.
00:06:39 - Do you intend to stay here?
00:06:44 With my guidance, he is becoming
00:06:51 - What is this nonsense?
00:06:54 - He wants to have our ships towed by fish?
00:06:57 He has surrounded himself
00:07:01 Find Aniceto! Drunk or sober,
00:07:09 - Who are all these people? -
00:07:14 They are all friends of Nero:
00:07:17 - All people with creative genius.
00:07:21 What is this, a poet?
00:07:24 He is a general. That one is a senator.
00:07:29 She is the daughter of a praetor,
00:07:32 - What is this? - It is a finger.
00:07:37 It is the finger of Ennius Silanus.
00:07:39 - He used to wag his finger under
00:07:44 - And so Nero...
00:07:49 - Have you seen Aniceto? - No.
00:07:53 - And where is Nero right now?
00:07:57 An important conference with the senators.
00:08:00 - In its study?
00:08:04 He is not to be disturbed.
00:08:15 I am good. They all know that I am good.
00:08:19 (angry) You are here because I want you!
00:08:22 (angry)
00:08:25 You are distracted. You are so distracted today!
00:08:29 How can I compose the melody
00:08:33 It's an easy rhythm. Pay attention.
00:08:37 Again, from the beginning.
00:08:40 (Nero sings)
00:08:44 (the animals make noise)
00:08:59 Who couldn't keep the tempo, you?
00:09:05 I had my doubts about you from the start...
00:09:07 I wanted to make you a senator. Instead,
00:09:13 From here, the pig can take over.
00:09:16 - But what are you doing? Pig, are you asleep?
00:09:20 Poppea, I do not understand you.
00:09:22 You keep on torturing those
00:09:25 It is cruel if artists study long and hard?
00:09:28 It is good enough. You should get some sleep.
00:09:31 I can't, I must learn the song
00:09:36 I cannot sleep with this stink!
00:09:40 - And when I fall asleep, the pig and the
00:09:44 Not in front of the artists!
00:09:47 - But why didn't you tell me she was alive?
00:09:51 - She almost had me killed.
00:09:55 - Are you not his executioner?
00:10:00 I only kill because I have to think of my family.
00:10:05 Once more, with feeling.
00:10:10 (Nero sings)
00:10:13 - Nero! Nero!
00:10:18 - Your mother has arrived.
00:10:22 - She is there, waiting for you.
00:10:26 - Yes. She wants to come here, but Seneca is
00:10:31 - Poppea, you hide too. - Why, what happened?
00:10:35 - You leave with all the animals!
00:10:40 - No time to argue! Move, get outside.
00:10:44 You are crazy? She won't like it!
00:10:46 - The emperor of Rome is afraid of his own mother!!
00:10:51 Every time your mother
00:10:54 - Enough!
00:11:00 - Leave! Go to your room. - The father of
00:11:05 Do not provoke me! My mother
00:11:10 My mother is coming, go!
00:11:14 Seneca, stop your silly excuses, I am loosing
00:11:18 Agrippina, are you doubting my sincerity?
00:11:21 Is doubt corrupting our deep, sacred friendship...
00:11:28 - Where did she go? - Who?
00:11:34 (worried) Agrippina?
00:11:36 Agrippina has arrived! Run away!
00:11:40 Agrippina is here!
00:11:48 Ah! The senators, the meeting...
00:11:53 - Nero! Nero, my dear!
00:12:00 You have put on weight.
00:12:06 Let me see your tongue.
00:12:09 Oh, and I see you have grown a beard!
00:12:12 Do you like it?
00:12:17 The senators use perfume, eh?
00:12:22 Which woman? There is only me here.
00:12:26 - I believe she is called Poppea?
00:12:32 - See if you know these...
00:12:39 - Where did you find them?
00:12:43 - How terrible! I'm so glad you
00:12:47 - I also found the slave that planted them.
00:12:51 No, I tortured him, until he confessed
00:12:58 - I know nothing about it, mother.
00:13:03 You come here. Nero!
00:13:07 Nero, watches to me in the eyes. In the eyes.
00:13:12 - It was a joke, mama.
00:13:16 You must stop putting snakes in my bed!
00:13:23 But what are you doing here?
00:13:26 - I don't want to stay in my room anymore.
00:13:30 If you want me to hide, I will hide in the bed.
00:13:34 What is wrong, mother?
00:13:38 For 50 years not one member
00:13:43 - Yes, they all had accidents.
00:13:46 My father, Germanicus, was
00:13:49 - Tiberius was choked in his sleep by Caligula.
00:13:55 Caius and Postumus were killed
00:13:58 ... and my sister Drusilla
00:14:02 What a man!
00:14:04 Your father Claudius was the only
00:14:08 And only because I protected him.
00:14:11 - Mother, you forget he was poisoned.
00:14:16 - Mama, everyone knows that you
00:14:21 Mother, don't you remember?
00:14:26 If you repeat those lies, you
00:14:31 A present? What kind of
00:14:35 Not while you are dressed like this.
00:14:39 - Where is the bag? - The bag?
00:14:44 Vipers! By Jove!
00:14:56 - I knew I would find you here!
00:15:00 - Nero, why did you put snakes in the bed?
00:15:05 She wanted me to raise the taxes!
00:15:07 It's shocking. And this makes a son
00:15:12 - Well, yes. - What if it had bitten?
00:15:19 - The snake.
00:15:23 Remembered that I am your teacher.
00:15:27 I do not want to be remembered as the one,
00:15:30 ...who taught to sons to put
00:15:33 Remember, the mother will
00:15:38 - But Seneca, wasn't it YOU who
00:15:43 This is what I said:
00:15:45 "If some day a slave puts a
00:15:51 "...nobody would suspect you".
00:15:53 - That's what I did, I sent a slave.
00:15:58 - Why deaf-mute? - A deaf-mute does
00:16:03 Brilliant! I could hit myself.
00:16:13 - What are you doing? - We are laying
00:16:18 - Yes, it is for the aquatic theatre.
00:16:25 - We can all live in harmony.
00:16:30 For me and your mother, it's impossible.
00:16:36 - Who cares about politics!
00:16:40 I have better things to do
00:16:45 A noble vocation you cannot refuse.
00:16:48 But do not say that me and your
00:16:53 ...when it comes to politics,
00:16:56 ...can ever reach an agreement?
00:16:58 But you've tried to teach me
00:17:02 - From death... - is born life.
00:17:05 If you and my mother hate each other,
00:17:11 - What would you say to a wedding?
00:17:14 A wedding between you and Poppea.
00:17:18 Seneca, you fool! I have found a way
00:17:23 Seneca, I order you to marry
00:17:28 Come on!
00:17:30 Stay with me!
00:17:32 (whistles)
00:17:34 - Where? What happened?
00:17:39 Oh, how can you be so cruel?
00:17:41 - You've taught me, that in life
00:17:47 - You prefer death to my mother!
00:17:51 - You dare to refuse me? - Yes.
00:17:58 - Thank you, Nero. - I knew it.
00:18:00 For a long time I wanted to go
00:18:06 To eat only bread and olives, and
00:18:12 - I understand. - You go to your mother.
00:18:16 Yes. She brought me a present.
00:18:20 Go, I never want to see you again.
00:18:23 - If you need me, I will be in Gaeta.
00:18:25 If you need me, I will be in Gaeta.
00:18:30 (Nero whines)
00:18:35 - Caesar, here is your new dress.
00:18:39 It is a beautiful new dress!
00:18:43 Beautiful! Slaves, dress me up, I'll
00:18:48 - Do you like men?
00:18:51 # One, two, three, what a nice thing!
00:18:56 - Aniceto, are these slaves all deaf-mute?
00:19:01 - Seneca told me deaf and mute.
00:19:07 Mercy, Cesar!
00:19:11 Deaf-mute, eh? Tonight I want
00:19:14 - But I am not a surgeon.
00:19:18 - Simply cut off the tongue and tap
00:19:22 A fraud! Shame! Take him away!
00:19:24 - What are you doing?
00:19:28 - Listen. I am not your fiancee?
00:19:32 - Why are you dressed like this?
00:19:36 Yes, what can I do while she is here?
00:19:41 What are you doing? This is private. Get out!
00:19:46 - You promised to marry me. Have you forgotten?
00:19:51 It's not that I don't want to marry you.
00:19:59 - Wait, I have an idea. - Yes? - Yes.
00:20:01 - To remove all suspicion, you will marry him.
00:20:05 - No! No! No! - Did you hear?
00:20:09 - But I am already married.
00:20:13 - But my wife? - No, please not!
00:20:17 - You are a monster!
00:20:22 - Mother? - Close your eyes.
00:20:28 - I have a wonderful surprise for you.
00:20:32 - Where are you taking me, mother?
00:20:37 - Hey... What is this?
00:20:43 He wore it in 100 glorious battles.
00:20:47 - For me? But why? Where would I wear it?
00:20:51 Battles? But we have peace.
00:20:55 - There is still half of Britain to occupy.
00:21:00 Listen to what general Corbulone has to say.
00:21:03 Over 2000 soldiers died in the last battle.
00:21:05 - Corbulone, how many battles have you fought?
00:21:11 - How come you're still alive? - Nero!
00:21:15 Evidently I have been fortunate!
00:21:18 - Corbulone, can you make me a promise?
00:21:20 - In the next battle, try to die as well.
00:21:26 It will make the soldiers very happy,
00:21:30 Natürlich!
00:21:34 Who is this? Mother!
00:21:38 - What is he?
00:21:42 - You brought a German into my house?
00:21:47 Operation? What do you
00:21:53 This is the North of Britain,
00:21:57 With four legions and a manoeuvre,
00:22:02 - Yes? - Certainly. - Certainly.
00:22:07 This is your chance. Britain awaits you.
00:22:11 - Britain waits? - It waits for you.
00:22:13 Let it wait. I do not care to see it.
00:22:19 - I'm sorry, mama.
00:22:24 - Now listen to Segimerus.
00:22:28 - Alright, we listen to Segimerus.
00:22:32 We head for the mountains,
00:22:37 ...we burn their grain, sink their ships,
00:22:41 - Look! The horn.
00:22:46 - If I ask, will he give it to me?
00:22:50 The horn is such a beautiful instrument.
00:22:53 BAOOOT!
00:22:56 We wipe out the savages, alles kaputt.
00:23:03 - You are here to send me into a war?
00:23:08 Agrippina spoils all the fun.
00:23:13 Yes... Goodbye orgies!
00:23:17 Grandfather, please understand, I am
00:23:20 As an artist I have a strategic
00:23:24 To conquer the world? Oh, Nero!
00:23:29 - I'm so proud of you. We are
00:23:34 - Our soldiers are all in Britain? - Yes.
00:23:39 - Impossible!
00:23:43 You understand me, mother...I withdraw them all,
00:23:49 The soldiers change in masons!
00:23:55 Oh, you are joking!
00:23:59 - Come on, be seriously. - But I AM serious.
00:24:03 I transform them in masons, so they can
00:24:08 ...and then I will sing in all of them.
00:24:11 - The emperor sings in public??
00:24:18 I have prepared a magnificent show.
00:24:21 If it is a success, I will go on tour,
00:24:24 I do not need an army, mama, when
00:24:29 And while play the clown for everyone to laugh at...
00:24:33 ... who will look after the affairs of Rome?
00:24:36 The senators will take care of that.
00:24:41 Seneca...
00:24:42 - Cesar, the rehearsals have started.
00:24:47 Ah, Corbulone, come here.
00:24:49 - You two see to it that the armour is returned.
00:24:54 I will give the armour to the dancers.
00:24:59 With my ballerinas I will conquer Britain.
00:25:01 Just imagine the Britons when
00:25:04 - How could they do anything but surrender?
00:25:09 I know I can trust you, Corbulone.
00:25:11 Caesar, I refuse.
00:25:15 Corbulone, you mean you prefer
00:25:19 Aniceto, I will never understand
00:25:24 - Hail, Caesar Augustus.
00:25:29 - Oh no, please, sing for us.
00:25:33 No, sing, please.
00:25:35 - I will not sing.
00:25:39 I enjoy tormenting them a little bit.
00:25:44 - Friends, I will sing.
00:25:47 (satisfied sounds)
00:25:50 - Aniceto, tell them to be quiet!
00:25:52 Such a great sense of humour.
00:25:55 Isn't she the girl whose husband we killed?
00:25:58 She likes my jokes.
00:26:01 Friends, the show will go on.
00:26:05 But I will take part not as your
00:26:10 (satisfied sounds)
00:26:13 - The canary of Rome!
00:26:16 - The canary of Rome!
00:26:19 - I am Pison. - What did you say?
00:26:25 - I will design your theatres.
00:26:29 Bravo! Build me theatres all over the empire.
00:26:34 Remember: Pison.
00:26:38 The contract is ours!
00:26:41 - But who is that? - It is Seneca.
00:26:45 Seneca!
00:26:47 - Stop! Seneca, where are you going?
00:26:52 You can't. Don't you want to hear me sing?
00:26:55 - That was her surprise? - Yes.
00:26:59 - For the good of the Roman people. - So?
00:27:04 - I will give you a villa.
00:27:08 - We will stop the war. A villa by the sea?
00:27:14 Seneca, I knew you wouldn't desert me.
00:27:26 Squadron! Halt!
00:27:29 - Are they the recruits of my new army?
00:27:34 - What are they? - All volunteers. - Good.
00:27:37 We do not need soldiers to conquer Britain.
00:27:41 You girls will be enough, armed with your, your...
00:27:48 - Where are you from?
00:27:53 Have they tried the armour yet?
00:27:55 - He would look good in grandfather's armour.
00:27:59 Aniceto, do what I tell you.
00:28:03 Forward, march! One, two, one, two.
00:28:11 Enough. Good.
00:28:13 Grandfather's armour, Aniceto.
00:28:15 Attention!
00:28:18 - Finally, I've been waiting for you.
00:28:23 - I must speak to him. - Me too.
00:28:26 Haven't you heard what he said?
00:28:30 - Congratulations.
00:28:35 I divorced 2 husbands to become empress.
00:28:38 And now, because his mother arrives,
00:28:41 You are lucky. I may have to marry his mother!
00:28:45 - Oh, is the mother disturbing you?
00:28:50 - Agrippina, have you met Poppea Sabina?
00:28:55 - I heard she was married.
00:29:00 - How nice. With whom?
00:29:04 How very strange. In Rome they all
00:29:12 Nero's mistress!
00:29:17 I don't think it is funny at all.
00:29:21 Tell her? Tell her what, my darling?
00:29:25 Go now, darling. Go now.
00:29:32 Ah, my dear senators.
00:29:37 We have come from Rome,
00:29:41 No, you study them.
00:29:45 And then if your laws
00:29:48 - By the way, do you know how to sing?
00:29:54 (Nero sings)
00:29:58 Come on.
00:29:59 (the senators sing)
00:30:01 Not bad... Tomorrow we sing again.
00:30:13 Who are all these people?
00:30:15 They are from the village.
00:30:20 Idiot! This is the worst
00:30:24 - That woman is a demon.
00:30:28 Listen. As soon as the people enter...
00:30:36 Long live Nero, the father of the land!
00:30:53 - Caesar! - The peasants have invaded the villa.
00:30:57 Your mother has invited them to judge your show.
00:31:03 Wonderful! The people will be judges of my art!
00:31:07 - She will join them. - Who?
00:31:11 Alceo, this may be the best day of my life...
00:31:15 What are you doing? Go, go!
00:31:18 Mother! Ah!
00:31:21 - I hope you'll enjoy Nero's performance.
00:31:46 (inaudible)
00:31:55 And now... Nero Caesar Augustus!
00:31:58 (applause)
00:32:02 On the stage.
00:32:04 (wonder)
00:32:07 (bugle)
00:32:17 # Tremble, mothers and senators #
00:32:24 # It is Nero, best of emperors #
00:32:29 # The great singer! #
00:32:32 # Tremble before me, people! #
00:32:42 - Normally he sings even better.
00:32:47 There will be much applause.
00:32:49 # But someone is still
00:33:00 # - Who is it? - Who is it?
00:33:04 # Who will it be? #
00:33:07 She is the mother.
00:33:12 # Mother... Mother... #
00:33:19 As soon as it's over, everyone will boo.
00:33:23 - And then what will happen to us?
00:33:27 - Order from Seneca: everyone will
00:33:32 (Nero sings)
00:33:37 When it stops, start booing.
00:33:39 (Nero sings)
00:33:59 Canary! Canary of Rome!
00:34:06 If he had won a battle, would he
00:34:12 Crown him quickly, before it is too late.
00:34:26 - They cannot boo, the pretorians prevented it.
00:34:30 Thank you, thank you for your approval.
00:34:38 I consider your applause
00:34:41 It demonstrates how much
00:34:46 As a token of my appreciation, I will
00:34:55 - What did he say? 23?
00:34:59 - And they say that he is not generous.
00:35:05 Block the doors while Nero
00:35:09 - And if someone becomes unwell?

00:35:25 # Mother! Mother! #
00:35:31 # I know what you want me to do! #
00:35:37 # the armour of my grandfather... #
00:35:43 #... I will not wear... #
00:35:45 # You want to know why?
00:35:48 # It appeals to you, but not to me. #
00:35:54 # This story knows how it will end. #
00:35:59 (laughs)
00:36:02 "Quo vadis, mama"!
00:36:07 - It's horrible. - Keep quiet!
00:36:11 - I have fought for 20 years in Germany.
00:36:18 - These veterans annoy me. Where is Aniceto?
00:36:28 (Nero sings)
00:36:44 Dog! Stop! Dog!
00:36:50 (discord)
00:37:00 - They boo. - They boo.
00:37:04 - They boo?
00:37:12 (twang)
00:37:16 (anger)
00:37:25 Seneca, I'm sorry, it seems the people
00:37:31 And the opinion of the people counts.
00:37:33 The songs of Nero are just too refined
00:37:37 There is nothing for it. We must send him
00:37:42 We can leave tomorrow morning.
00:37:58 Nice work, Seneca. My compliments.
00:38:00 Just how are you going to get the situation
00:38:06 The only person who can convince Nero tonight...
00:38:12 ... is you, my dear.
00:38:14 - Me? - Certainly. Can you sing?
00:38:18 - Why? - We must give Nero new
00:38:24 (Poppea sings)
00:38:53 - Poppea, you are singing my song!
00:38:57 - Do you like it? - It is wonderful.
00:39:04 - But why do the people boo to me? Don't
00:39:08 - Isn't that enough?
00:39:14 You will never abandon me, right?
00:39:21 Never.
00:39:24 (Nero cries)
00:39:40 They have been watering the milk again?
00:39:43 Does Poppea know about this?
00:39:45 Filthy slaves! Water in the milk!
00:39:49 Dirty slaves!
00:39:53 Your skin is ruined.
00:39:56 Poppea, you seem to shine...
00:40:01 Oh, Nero, I was hoping you would say that!
00:40:05 We must leave, before they change your mind.
00:40:08 - Yes. far away. To Egypt. Do you like that?
00:40:15 We will see the mysterious pyramids,
00:40:18 - I will sleep in the bed of Cleopatra...
00:40:22 I will be empress! How marvellous!
00:40:26 - It's marvellous to see you dance, Poppea.
00:40:32 I will dance for you now.
00:40:48 No, not like that. Almost nude. Here. Put this on.
00:40:55 Tonight has been a great triumph.
00:40:59 Not completely. It's too early to claim the victory.
00:41:02 - We can't win as long as Poppea and Seneca are alive.
00:41:06 Nothing, I will take care of it this evening.
00:41:11 - Come here. Beautiful! - Even in rags?
00:41:17 We will live as beggars. Charming!
00:41:21 You and I, living with the beggars.
00:41:27 What a fantasy!
00:41:30 Poppea, it's not a joke.
00:41:34 I have always wanted to live like a poor artist.
00:41:39 - Is that for you?
00:41:43 Yes, why not? It is MY throne. Not yours.
00:41:47 I have renounced 2 husbands,
00:41:52 I've risked my life to become empress,
00:41:57 You are crazy!
00:42:00 I will go alone! I forsake
00:42:05 You, an artist?
00:42:10 - Like a... - Like a nightingale.
00:42:14 - Who is this?
00:42:18 Mercy, Caesar. You song was beautiful.
00:42:21 - Then why did you hiss?
00:42:25 - How so? Tell me.
00:42:30 - Crepereius, by order of your mother.
00:42:35 - My mother paid you?
00:42:41 Oh Caesar, you sing very well,
00:42:45 Seneca...
00:42:50 - The gods have decided to make me an orphan!
00:42:55 What you want?
00:42:58 Nero! Nero!
00:43:02 Mushrooms. Venom of cobra. Wolfbane.
00:43:08 Quiet, quiet. A little bit more...
00:43:11 - Nero!
00:43:15 - This is a powerful poison.
00:43:19 - Nero!
00:43:22 - Mama is strong. All the family is.
00:43:28 - Nero!
00:43:30 - Hey! - Who is it?
00:43:35 - It's you. You frightened me.
00:43:39 - Good. It must be a surprise...
00:43:43 - It's my mother, you keep out of this.
00:43:48 - If it is poison, I ask you never to use
00:43:53 Nothing, no reason, can justify such an act.
00:43:57 Nero! Remembered: The mother is always the mother.
00:44:05 Seneca is right. I won't do it. Take it away!
00:44:10 - No poison? - No.
00:44:13 But you are young, and may ignore my good advice.
00:44:18 - So unfortunately, you will go ahead and do it.
00:44:21 As your teacher, allow me to give you some advice.
00:44:25 - Are you boiling the concoction?
00:44:30 Right again, Seneca. Look, it is clear now.
00:44:34 - Shake it well. - What? - Shake it.
00:44:44 - Is it strong enough?
00:44:47 Don't worry. It is an old family recipe.
00:44:52 Look at the snake, it's asleep.
00:44:54 - Tonight it will sleep even better, in a bed.
00:44:59 You will put it there tonight.
00:45:04 Let's go.
00:45:13 By Jove! What are you doing! Are you scared?
00:46:07 Look! Look! A German!
00:46:12 Get him!
00:46:14 - You murderer!
00:46:20 - Is it safe now? - Yes.
00:46:24 - Aniceto, have you got a good grip on him?
00:46:28 You German spy, we'll cut off your ears!
00:46:32 Mercy! Caesar, I am a only a worker of Pozzuoli.
00:46:36 What are you doing at the bed of my mother?
00:46:38 - I am one of the plumbers working in the villa.
00:46:42 We are only fixing the water pipes.
00:46:49 - And this?
00:46:54 Unfortunately, we have no cement to put it back.
00:47:00 So we will secure it with iron bars.
00:47:03 It is safe as long as nobody comes near it...
00:47:09 Or else it will fall on the bed of your mother.
00:47:16 If someone touches it, it will falls down?
00:47:23 - If the slab is touched...
00:47:31 - I knew I'd find you here, Seneca.
00:47:36 - Why? - Are you sure it will work? - Oh yes!
00:47:40 It will come crashing down on the bed.
00:47:45 There she is, she is coming this way.
00:47:52 Are you still here? Won't
00:47:56 Poppea is only my fiancee.
00:47:59 A philosopher ought to be in bed by now.
00:48:04 - Agrippina? - Yes?
00:48:08 - The people have decided, there's nothing I can do.
00:48:16 - What's wrong?
00:48:21 - Have you drunk anything?
00:48:26 Well then, the remedy is simple.
00:48:31 - Is there any in your room? - I think so.
00:48:42 Up you go! Up you go!
00:48:55 Here, take this. Drink it all at once.
00:49:02 Thanks. No, thanks, it's no use.
00:49:06 - For a philosopher the only remedy is... death.
00:49:11 What good is it always to think of dying?
00:49:14 A very great advantage, Agrippina,
00:49:18 Do as you will, but if the pain returns...
00:49:23 No! No, Agrippina, do not go away.
00:49:28 - But what do you want?
00:49:34 Seneca, I am beginning to think that
00:49:38 - Stop it! You are wasting my time.
00:49:43 - Do not crush the dream I have.
00:49:48 A dream that has been in my heart for 25 years,
00:49:56 I... I love you, Agrippina.
00:49:59 But you told me that you will marry Poppea.
00:50:03 Poppea is just a distraction.
00:50:07 Can an unripe fruit like her,
00:50:11 I want to taste the sweetness of mature fruit.
00:50:15 Poppea is like ice and you are like fire.
00:50:18 Poppea is a stream and you are an impetuous river.
00:50:22 Oh, how I wish to drown myself in that river!
00:50:27 Do not resist me, Agrippina! Don't resist me!
00:50:32 Who is resisting? Your river is waiting for you.
00:50:37 Ready to sweep you away... we wasted 20 years.
00:50:42 - No more idle words. Do it quickly, Seneca.
00:50:49 What are you saying?
00:50:53 It is nearly 4, I can no longer stay up!
00:50:58 - Then lie down.
00:51:02 Your passion is all smoke and no fire.
00:51:06 Yes, my dear, words. That's right. Words.
00:51:09 I feel sorry for Poppea if she marries you.
00:51:14 - Don't exaggerate, Agrippina!
00:51:22 Me a eunuch?
00:51:25 You should ask your sister Livilla.
00:51:29 She always serves this family lemonade.
00:51:34 - Has everything been arranged?
00:51:38 - Aren't you going to bed?
00:51:42 - It will only take an hour or two.
00:51:49 (Nero laughs)
00:51:53 Stop it!
00:51:55 Poppea, stop tickling my foot!
00:52:00 - Stop it, Poppea!
00:52:04 What? But there's something tickling my foot.
00:52:08 It's the snake! The one I put in mama's bed!
00:52:12 - Kill it, Poppea!
00:52:17 - I bet it was your mother who put it there.
00:52:21 If you want to marry me you have to learn
00:52:25 (scared)
00:52:32 - What is going on here?
00:52:36 How can anyone sleep with such noise?
00:52:41 - We have found a snake in a room.
00:52:45 - It's the one from Tivoli. - What?
00:52:50 Go! Quickly!
00:52:54 But my mother had three snakes...
00:52:56 The one from Tivoli, the one Poppea killed...
00:52:59 And the third one, with the horn.
00:53:04 The horned snake is still on the loose!
00:53:25 - Tacitus! - What do you want?
00:53:30 - Who, me? - Yes, you touched my beard.
00:53:35 Tesoruccius, do you smell a snake?
00:53:39 Senators, citizens, friends...
00:53:42 ...the mother of Nero, the wise,
00:53:46 I do not cry for her, my friends, I envy her.
00:53:51 In death she has reached the perfection...
00:53:55 ...that we all seek in vain while we live...
00:54:05 - Master, what is it?
00:54:11 I didn't know engagement meant snakes in my bed.
00:54:16 - You will have to get used to it.
00:54:24 Do you want to make me angry?
00:54:27 (jingle)
00:54:28 - Snakes are around and you are playing?
00:54:32 Worthy of the imperial genius!
00:54:37 If a snake passes, it will move.
00:54:41 The bells will ring.
00:54:46 And then I hit it with this stick!
00:55:09 (cries)
00:55:15 Jupiter, Mercury and Saturn!
00:55:23 The ceiling has collapsed. A catastrophe!
00:55:29 Oh no, Agrippina is dead!
00:55:32 No!
00:55:58 Agrippina is alive!
00:56:01 She lives.
00:56:04 - Yes! Yes! - She is. - She is alive!
00:56:10 Nero! Nero!
00:56:13 - There! The viper! - But who is this?
00:56:20 Aniceto, why are you pretending to be a snake!
00:56:23 Crepereius is dead, but your mother is alive.
00:56:29 - You fool! I must escape.
00:56:37 Where is the emperor?
00:56:40 - Good morning, Augusta.
00:56:44 Poppea? She is in the third room on the right.
00:56:47 - Have your men surround the villa.
00:56:51 - Aniceto, take Poppea away. - Come.
00:56:55 - Didn't you hear, mama is coming!
00:57:00 Here she comes!
00:57:07 - Augusta, would like to tell you...
00:57:12 - Yes, mother?
00:57:15 I was asleep.
00:57:19 Oh, mother! What brings you here?
00:57:24 Very well, but you won't get away with this.
00:57:29 Oh, how beautiful you look, mother.
00:57:33 I almost stayed in that bed forever.
00:57:37 - The ceiling! You could have been dead.
00:57:42 Such a common end only happens to mortals.
00:57:46 - And you are immortal, then?
00:57:51 This strange drink for example.
00:57:59 - Not me. What is it?
00:58:03 - Would you like me to test its effect?
00:58:09 Yes, yes.
00:58:11 Oh, no! Mother, don't! Oh mama, why did you?
00:58:19 Oh, mother...
00:58:24 Mama, don't you feel anything?
00:58:29 - You are alright? - Yes. - Yes?
00:58:33 It's like a nice refreshment to me.
00:58:36 Mama, you actually like it?
00:58:39 I take poison every morning with my breakfast.
00:58:45 Otherwise you would have been an orphan long ago.
00:58:48 Remember what I say to you now:
00:58:52 If some day a snake will bite me,
00:58:59 Oh that's a good one, mama.
00:59:02 You think I'm joking? You try it.
00:59:08 - You are crazy? I'm too young to die.
00:59:12 - No, mother! I do not want to die.
00:59:18 It's Poppea who should die, she and
00:59:24 Too many conspirators under this roof.
00:59:28 Who is conspiring?
00:59:31 WHO CONSPIRES? WHO CONSPIRES IN MY HOUSE?
00:59:35 Who conspires? Tell me who is conspiring?
00:59:38 - First, one who has your complete confidence.
00:59:42 - This is a letter of Seneca that I
00:59:46 - You intercepted it? - Yes.
00:59:52 "Dear Lucillus, you ask me
01:00:01 Everyone here thinks that
01:00:08 I will burn them all! The savages!
01:00:12 Except Seneca.
01:00:13 Continue.
01:00:15 "As for me, officially, I say
01:00:21 Sublime. He said sublime.
01:00:24 - Continue. - Mamma, he said sublime.
01:00:31 "But if you ask me, Lucillus, I
01:00:45 Keep the lions safe. They will
01:00:52 Let the trial begin!
01:01:04 Achtung!
01:01:07 Emperor, Nero, father and saviour of the land...
01:01:13 ...has instructed me to open the trial.
01:01:16 All guests in this villa
01:01:23 ... against the emperor himself
01:01:27 By virtue of the exceptional powers
01:01:32 ...he will judge and condemn all of the
01:01:45 - Why do you not kneel down before me?
01:01:49 - Who are you? - Ugulilla.
01:01:52 My dear friends, if it pleases you...
01:01:55 ... I'll make it so that none of you
01:02:01 - But all of us admire you.
01:02:07 A lark! Let me show you how
01:02:17 Hold out your hands!
01:02:19 I will kill you all!
01:02:22 - Mercy! Have mercy on us. Be merciful!
01:02:26 Be merciful! Be merciful!
01:02:29 - Aniceto, I don't understand this madman.
01:02:33 - And who is this?
01:02:37 - Pison, Pison... Pison we give to the lion.
01:02:42 Yes. Let me see your legs.
01:02:46 - Skinny! So skinny! Aren't you ashamed?
01:02:51 The legs are too skinny! There is
01:02:55 - There is no animal that would eat him.
01:02:58 But if not a beast, then who will eat him?
01:03:02 - What about you?
01:03:06 You are an executioner. Just eat a
01:03:10 Now take him to the kitchen and don't argue!
01:03:14 We are innocent, Caesar, trust us!
01:03:18 Stop that, don't touch him. It's a fair trial.
01:03:21 Aniceto, this man is to be embalmed as he is.
01:03:24 Make a hole in his head, and put a torch in.
01:03:28 Then take him to his mother. Such colours!
01:03:31 - Thank you, Nero.
01:03:35 (desperate cries)
01:03:38 - Nero, my dear.
01:03:45 Bravo, darling. I see you have
01:03:48 Yes, mama, I can feel the noble
01:03:52 I see. And where are Poppea and Seneca?
01:03:56 They are in the cellar, awaiting their
01:04:06 Monster!
01:04:08 - If I must die, then you must do it.
01:04:13 - You are trying to corrupt him.
01:04:18 Very well. What are we accused of?
01:04:21 What are the charges?
01:04:28 But YOU were the one who
01:04:32 My only son!
01:04:37 Just once... I was curious. I asked myself:
01:04:43 "The streets are congested with traffic".
01:04:48 "Could we use them to solve traffic jams?"
01:04:51 What a scandal!
01:04:55 Oh, don't worry about the Christians.
01:04:59 They are little people with soft voices.
01:05:03 Let's not waste any more time about it.
01:05:09 Poppea... Poppea... Poppea...
01:05:12 I have it. It is a rhyme, for I am poet.
01:05:18 - Nero, don't do it. I love you. No!
01:05:23 And now we come to Seneca. Where is Seneca?
01:05:27 Be lenient with him, please.
01:05:32 If you have to condemn him, I cannot watch.
01:05:38 - Try talk your way out of this one.
01:05:43 - My son is finally going the right way.
01:05:46 After my departure. Otherwise, the senate
01:05:50 - When do you leave? - Immediately. - Yes.
01:05:55 - Is this your letter?
01:05:58 What does it say? Read it, Seneca.
01:06:02 - "Dear Lucillus..." - Dear Lucillus...
01:06:06 "Dear Lucillus, you ask to about Nero's voice."
01:06:10 "All the guests of the villa think,
01:06:14 - That is not true. - That's what you said.
01:06:20 Continue!
01:06:21 "As for me, I declare officially
01:06:26 So much for that...
01:06:29 - You come here, Seneca, that is not the end.
01:06:35 But to you, dear Lucillus, I say
01:06:39 Read it clearly, Seneca. sings like?
01:06:42 - Sings... like... a god.
01:06:46 - What does it say? - Like a god.
01:06:49 Seneca, don't abuse my patience, read clear.
01:06:53 It says, sings like a dog.
01:06:56 - You confess?
01:07:01 - "So?"!
01:07:05 You have called the emperor a dog!
01:07:15 - Nero, do you consider that offensive?
01:07:22 Yes, I used the word "dog".
01:07:28 What does it means? It means dog.
01:07:30 The word "dog" has more than one meaning.
01:07:39 Very strange, in a clear language like ours...
01:07:44 What are you laughing at? This is serious.
01:07:47 You see, friends, isn't everyone
01:07:51 - And do dogs bark beautifully?
01:07:55 (dog sounds)
01:08:00 Howling...
01:08:03 In this case, your songs, Caesar.
01:08:06 But think how marvellous, a dog that sings!
01:08:11 - So you insist in saying that I am a dog!
01:08:18 - But you've written it here.
01:08:23 Lucillus, if you would ask me,
01:08:29 But he has never asked me,
01:08:33 No, no, no. Wait a minute, Seneca.
01:08:38 You already wrote I sing like a dog.
01:08:44 - Like a god. - It says "dog". - "God".
01:08:50 - It says "dog".
01:08:55 You must be more careful when I dictate!
01:08:57 You have written "god" backwards!
01:09:02 - You wrote that? I will cut off your hands!
01:09:07 Do not rob this Greek idiot of his tools...
01:09:10 His only means of existence... the fool...
01:09:14 His head is empty... He is innocent!
01:09:19 - You see, Nero... - Seneca.
01:09:21 We write the letter with "god"...
01:09:26 It seems so simple! What are you doing?
01:09:30 You don't need proof to condemn me to death.
01:09:33 - My friends and me are ready to die for you.
01:09:39 They are not ready at all!
01:09:42 Yes, Nero, when we are all dead,
01:09:47 ... you will become a great general.
01:09:50 I can already see you before me,
01:09:54 I see you at the head of a great army...
01:09:58 ...riding over the frozen North...
01:10:01 ...ready to fight barbarians to the death.
01:10:06 Indifferent to all the hardships,
01:10:13 Marching through terrible snowstorms!
01:10:18 Not afraid for the British savages.
01:10:25 By Jove! Segimerus!
01:10:33 Segimerus! Stop.
01:10:38 This is your destiny, Nero. I have said.
01:10:46 - What? - We do not fear the cold, Nero.
01:10:50 We will die with you in the icy North.
01:10:54 We will die with you in the icy North.
01:11:01 But are you crazy? Isn't it warm enough here?
01:11:08 Are they crazy?
01:11:11 (coughs)
01:11:15 I have never felt so cold in my life.
01:11:32 Aniceto, isn't that the litter of my mother?
01:11:35 Yes, she is going to Anzio.
01:11:39 - What executions?
01:11:45 Imbecile! Set them free at once.
01:11:47 Do you want me frozen to death in the North?
01:11:52 Now go.
01:11:59 Aniceto, how would you like to
01:12:03 Yes, Caesar. I am a navy officer.
01:12:06 - What's that? - An officer of the navy.
01:12:12 You would like that?
01:12:17 This time he is really going straight.
01:12:20 The mother is always the mother.
01:12:25 (banging)
01:12:26 - What is that noise below?
01:12:30 They said it wouldn't take long.
01:12:36 Nice work. This job deserves a reward.
01:12:41 - Thank you! - Caesar is too generous.
01:12:46 Aniceto! Aniceto, look, what do you think?
01:12:49 - what is it? - what is it? - what is it?
01:12:54 Pull this, and the ship sinks in two hours.
01:12:59 - But I am on the ship.
01:13:02 - She could drown. - Could?
01:13:08 - Aniceto, you don't seem to understand.
01:13:11 - My mother must drown! - And me?
01:13:16 - But who are you?
01:13:19 The captain will go down with his ship.
01:13:22 - Why, don't you know how to swim?
01:13:28 Aniceto, don't waste my time.
01:13:30 When my mother goes to sleep,
01:13:36 - And me? - You will die!
01:13:39 Sleep well, mother. Safe journey home!
01:13:45 The next time I see you, we
01:13:50 Yes, mama, we will go to war.
01:13:54 - Farewell, mama. - You mean goodbye.
01:14:01 Everyone at the oars. Lift the anchor.
01:14:07 Quickly, she goes away!
01:14:10 I never doubted you, Seneca. Believe me.
01:14:16 It was my mother's fault. It's OK now.
01:14:21 - Look, here they are.
01:14:26 - Why do you rejoice in other people's
01:14:30 - The mother... - She is always the mother.
01:14:34 - She has always been the mother.
01:14:38 - What does it do? - It's a hole.
01:14:42 In the shape of a lion's head.
01:14:46 Go on, Aniceto, do it!
01:14:51 Here we go.
01:15:00 Senators, citizens, friends...
01:15:03 ...the mother of Nero, the kind
01:15:08 - I do not cry, friends...
01:15:12 - It was written like that when the
01:15:16 OK, forget the ceiling, instead write:
01:15:18 ...Neptune, the jealous God,
01:15:23 ...down in the deep realms of the sea.
01:15:27 - Help, Agrippina, I am drowning!
01:15:31 A true captain goes down with his ship.
01:15:34 Here are the legions that I prefer.
01:15:46 (inaudible)
01:15:48 (music)
01:16:47 - Where are we taking it? - To the museum.
01:16:51 - Who is this? - How should I know?
01:16:55 Goodbye, grandfather! Time to go back.
01:17:01 - I thought you sided with Agrippina?
01:17:08 - Is she really dead?
01:17:29 (scared)
01:17:41 The Greek...
01:17:44 The Syrian...
01:17:54 - Take command. - On the double.
01:18:07 One kiss for you... one for you...
01:18:12 - Mother! Are you a ghost!
01:18:22 - Open the door, rascal!
01:18:27 Open the door and you'll see I am alive.
01:18:30 I am haunted! Jupiter, save me!
01:18:35 - Caesar!
01:18:43 - You managed to save yourself?
01:18:45 I tried to drown her, but she swam away.
01:18:49 - It is not a ghost, she is alive!
01:18:54 Break down that door. Wait a minute...
01:18:57 - Arrest her. She tried to kill the emperor!
01:19:01 We will arrest them!
01:19:08 How dare you lay a hand on me. Arrest them!
01:19:13 You will obey my orders, you're
01:19:17 Kill me if you can!
01:19:21 But you will come with me, Seneca.
01:19:24 - My Germans will avenge me.
01:19:29 A moment, we cannot die all together.
01:19:33 - Agrippina, call of your Germans.
01:19:38 Me! On the contrary.
01:19:43 We only think of our own deaths...
01:19:49 We do not think of Nero, who will
01:19:54 A deal. We can't abandon Nero like this.
01:19:58 We can talk, and try to
01:20:04 What a man! Why, he could talk
01:20:09 - What is happening? - Silence.
01:20:12 - But how did you save yourself?
01:20:17 The dispute between us is clear.
01:20:22 War or peace, it makes no difference to me.
01:20:27 Very well, I consent.
01:20:30 For me, as long as I can stay out of the
01:20:33 I want only one thing: Nero should not sing!
01:20:38 - To be honest, Nero sings like a dog.
01:20:42 Why not, everyone knows it.
01:20:46 No-one in the entire Roman empire
01:20:52 - Yes, Nero sings like a dog. A dog.
01:20:59 But they're all of the same opinion!
01:21:06 It is clear to me now.
01:21:10 He has no talent for singing at all.
01:21:15 We will never have to
01:21:26 Three blocks of marble.
01:21:30 Now finally you are silent.
01:21:34 Good thing too.
01:21:38 Yes, I know, you told me that all
01:21:43 Rome called me a dog.
01:21:47 Now look at Rome!
01:21:49 Do you want to know why I did it?
