Caligula Page #9

Synopsis: The rise and fall of the notorious Roman Emperor Caligula, showing the violent methods that he employs to gain the throne, and the subsequent insanity of his reign - he gives his horse political office and humiliates and executes anyone who even slightly displeases him. He also sleeps with his sister, organises elaborate orgies and embarks on a fruitless invasion of Britain before meeting an appropriate end. There are various versions of the film, ranging from the heavily truncated 90-minute version to the legendary 160-minute hardcore version which leaves nothing to the imagination (though the hardcore scenes were inserted later and do not involve the main cast members).

I shall wait for the unanimous
decision of the Senate.
853

03:45,200 -- 02:03:47,471
All those who say aye...
854

He's mad.
875
02:
05:09,400 -- 02:05:11,606
Enjoy yourself.
876
02:
05:12,154 -- 02:05:14,154
Take care.
877
02:
05:29,800 -- 02:05:32,417
Now the fun begins.
878
02:
05:32,958 -- 02:05:35,610
But... ah...
are you going to enjoy it as well?
879
02:
05:35,710 -- 02:05:38,270
I don't know.
Should we ask them?
880
02:
05:38,374 -- 02:05:40,374
Longinus.
881
02:
05:45,500 -- 02:05:49,000
Ah, Longinus.
My financial wizard.
882
02:
05:49,900 -- 02:05:52,060
We have a question for you.
883
02:
05:52,856 -- 02:05:55,336
Who're the richest men in Rome?
884
02:
05:55,485 -- 02:05:57,485
Who?
885
02:
05:57,600 -- 02:06:01,492
Answer:
The pimps.
886
02:
06:01,800 -- 02:06:03,800
Question number two.
887
02:
06:04,401 -- 02:06:08,848
Who are the most lascivious sluts
in all of Rome?
888
02:
06:11,363 -- 02:06:13,363
Who?
889
02:
06:13,969 -- 02:06:18,223
Answer:
The senators' wives.
890
02:
06:18,411 -- 02:06:22,056
So, an imperial brothel.
A most logical...
891
02:
06:22,156 -- 02:06:24,921
way to balance the state budget.
892
02:
07:03,700 -- 02:07:05,757
As you can see,
ladies and gentlemen,
893
02:
07:05,857 -- 02:07:07,630
we have gone to great expence...
894
02:
07:07,730 -- 02:07:11,410
...to bring you the finest flesh
in our empire.
895
02:
07:20,600 -- 02:07:22,600
Five gold pieces.
896
02:
07:24,964 -- 02:07:29,364
Only five gold pieces for each
and every twenty minutes.
897
02:
07:30,200 -- 02:07:32,200
And that's a bargain.
898
02:
07:49,100 -- 02:07:52,514
Look at them.
Aren't they beautiful?
899
02:
08:03,600 -- 02:08:07,705
The most lascivious ladies of the
Roman Empire have come today...
900
02:
08:07,805 -- 02:08:11,485
...to perform their patriotic
beauties for all.
901
02:
08:11,572 -- 02:08:14,482
For a mere five gold pieces.
902
02:
08:14,648 -- 02:08:18,328
All with them,
that they will welcome you well.
903
02:
08:20,300 -- 02:08:23,129
Follow for all the
imperial bungalow...
904
02:
08:23,229 -- 02:08:26,242
...and better make
your choice of the...
905
02:
08:26,342 -- 02:08:28,742
finest treasure of the Empire.
906
02:
08:31,098 -- 02:08:35,000
Just five gold pieces for each
and every twenty minutes.
907
02:
08:35,100 -- 02:08:37,730
And that's a bargain,
because most of the...
908
02:
08:37,830 -- 02:08:40,400
women here are respectable,
married ladies.
909
02:
08:40,500 -- 02:08:45,126
Senators' wives.
Whores of plainest reputation.
910
02:
08:47,700 -- 02:08:51,220
I'll have to work out a special
rate for you.
911
02:
08:56,300 -- 02:08:59,071
Greetings.
Flavia, come.
912
02:
08:59,171 -- 02:09:04,100
Don't waste time. Our senators'
wives are not merely beautiful...
913
02:
09:04,200 -- 02:09:07,640
...like their husbands,
they are insatiable.
914
02:
09:08,625 -- 02:09:12,625
And for only five gold pieces,
took any one of you.
915
02:
09:45,800 -- 02:09:48,345
Do the wives of golden juice
come on you.
916
02:
09:48,445 -- 02:09:52,902
Take their wives, use them,
confuse them.
917
02:
09:53,002 -- 02:09:55,002
Do as you will with them.
918
02:
09:55,100 -- 02:09:59,807
They are yours. Just
yours for only five.
919
02:
09:59,907 -- 02:10:01,907
Five gold pieces.
920
02:
10:05,100 -- 02:10:07,100
Hairy nipples.
921
02:
10:10,100 -- 02:10:11,714
Senator Marcellus.
922
02:
10:11,814 -- 02:10:15,461
Your wife will scare
our customers away.
923
02:
10:16,800 -- 02:10:18,800
Try help walnuts.
924
02:
10:19,800 -- 02:10:23,080
Hey, you over there.
Don't pinch yourself.
925
02:
10:23,119 -- 02:10:27,199
The more that you give,
the more they will bite you.
926
02:
11:00,200 -- 02:11:04,500
How many enjoying the skills
perfected by our senators' ladies...
927
02:
11:04,600 -- 02:11:08,040
...while their husbands
left in the Senate?
928
02:
11:42,300 -- 02:11:44,838
Only five gold pieces.
929
02:
11:45,178 -- 02:11:47,178
Five.
930
02:
11:47,490 -- 02:11:49,119
Senators' wives...
931
02:
11:49,219 -- 02:11:52,282
...for a blameless reputation.
932
02:
12:13,700 -- 02:12:17,200
He's making customs using
all our wives and daughters.
933
02:
12:17,300 -- 02:12:19,774
Humaliating the Senate
and defending the army.
934
02:
12:19,874 -- 02:12:22,354
That's why the people love him.
935
02:
12:35,398 -- 02:12:38,228
Longinus. You're
not having any fun.
936
02:
12:38,328 -- 02:12:39,590
Enjoy yourself.
937
02:
12:39,690 -- 02:12:44,250
What is your preference?
-Everything and nothing, Caesar.
938
02:
12:45,750 -- 02:12:48,790
You can't have both
for the same price.
939
02:
12:56,800 -- 02:12:59,821
He's provoking you.
-Only me? Huh.
940
02:
13:00,100 -- 02:13:03,380
He's mad.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
941
02:
13:04,200 -- 02:13:07,320
He knows what he's doing
perfectly well.
942
02:
13:08,300 -- 02:13:12,620
Give him enough rope... perhaps...
-He'll hang us all.
943
02:
13:53,400 -- 02:13:57,325
We also have a few
very sappier ladies here today.
944
02:
13:57,700 -- 02:14:01,226
You may slash them
or may bind them.
945
02:
14:02,000 -- 02:14:04,640
Five gold pieces to buy you both.
946
02:
14:05,248 -- 02:14:07,738
For five gold pieces.
947
02:
14:43,000 -- 02:14:46,760
Can't you stop bothering
for just a few moments?
948
02:
14:48,200 -- 02:14:49,367
Chaerea.
949
02:
14:49,467 -- 02:14:52,400
I hear you have a
taste for little boys.
950
02:
14:52,500 -- 02:14:55,540
Is that not so?
-No, Caesar. Big boys.
951
02:
14:56,700 -- 02:14:59,179
My soldiers.
-Are they ready?

Gore Vidal

Eugene Luther Gore Vidal (; born Eugene Louis Vidal; October 3, 1925 – July 31, 2012) was an American writer and public intellectual known for his patrician manner, epigrammatic wit, and polished style of writing.Vidal was born to a political family; his maternal grandfather, Thomas Pryor Gore, served as United States senator from Oklahoma (1907–1921 and 1931–1937). He was a Democratic Party politician who twice sought elected office; first to the United States House of Representatives (New York, 1960), then to the U.S. Senate (California, 1982).As a political commentator and essayist, Vidal's principal subject was the history of the United States and its society, especially how the militaristic foreign policy reduced the country to a decadent empire. His political and cultural essays were published in The Nation, the New Statesman, the New York Review of Books, and Esquire magazines. As a public intellectual, Gore Vidal's topical debates on sex, politics, and religion with other intellectuals and writers occasionally turned into quarrels with the likes of William F. Buckley Jr. and Norman Mailer. Vidal thought all men and women are potentially bisexual, so he rejected the adjectives "homosexual" and "heterosexual" when used as nouns, as inherently false terms used to classify and control people in society.As a novelist Vidal explored the nature of corruption in public and private life. His polished and erudite style of narration readily evoked the time and place of his stories, and perceptively delineated the psychology of his characters. His third novel, The City and the Pillar (1948), offended the literary, political, and moral sensibilities of conservative book reviewers, with a dispassionately presented male homosexual relationship. In the historical novel genre, Vidal re-created in Julian (1964) the imperial world of Julian the Apostate (r. AD 361–63), the Roman emperor who used general religious toleration to re-establish pagan polytheism to counter the political subversion of Christian monotheism. In the genre of social satire, Myra Breckinridge (1968) explores the mutability of gender role and sexual orientation as being social constructs established by social mores. In Burr (1973) and Lincoln (1984), the protagonist is presented as "A Man of the People" and as "A Man" in a narrative exploration of how the public and private facets of personality affect the national politics of the U.S. more…
