This short excerpt is one of the greatest moments in cinema. What a shame this film was not completed! Charles Laughton is one of the greatest actors who ever lived. How come this got only 7 likes?
@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 The last 4 or 5 episodes of I, Claudius are the best - the first few set up things for Derek Jacobi to play Claudius at the same age/time as Laughton. I may have to watch it again! I actually think Jacobi does this speech better than Laughton, but he had the benefit of about 6 hours of build up to it.

When Claudius addresses the Senate is just Epic. Robert Newton played the guard Caligula kicked over. Thank you for your comment.

Such a pity this movie was not completed.
Yes indeed.
@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 I, Claudius BBC Series from 1976 is all on youtube, if you have never seen it. It's pretty good. A classic.
