"A great civilization is not destroyed from outside but from within". How true!! Great movie considering that there aren't any CGI! Thank you!!

It took 4 years to make this movie, the digital version Gladiator with Russell crew took only 4 weeks, that is why old movies are the best

Just look at these old movies how beautiful these movies are..charm of these movies every scene every dialogue just no match from today's movies

One of the best of the Golden years of Hollywood productions.

Ah, my golden childhood years! So grateful that this was the kind of movies we watched as opposed to what is being dished up today in the main stream.

This film was shot here in Spain when "The Samuel Broston Emporium" was having its best moments and the film is indeed very well crafted . It has a good scrip and the acting is just fine. One of the best "Superproduccion" from the 60s. Thanks so much for uploading this film and Greetings from Spain

No CGI; rather a solid story, excellent acting and a great script. Impossible not to love these movies. Thank you for uploading.

The stunts in this movie are just unbelievable. No CGI can replicate those. Today these stunts cannot be made. I have no words for the acting more qualified comments were made. Truly epic.

I just can't get over how Alec Guinness goes from being welcoming and friendly to exhuding irresistible authority, with just a different inflection of voice and look in his eyes. That man was something else.

Apart from Christopher Plummer's performance I was never a great fan of this movie, but just picking through it now I was struck by a line from Finlay Currie that resonates now far more than it did in 1964: "An empire begins to die when its people no longer believe in it."

Watched this movie in the 90's as a child its still as fresh as then.

Now I see how this movie inspired Ridley Scott's Gladiator... great classic, thx for sharing!

Oh wow, the end fight is actually decent. I like that not only could I tell who is attacking and defending, not only are they are trying to get each other's space, not only are there some nice techniques but it also feels really tense. That's kinda rare for me when it comes to historical or fantasy movies

The recreation of the forum is incredible. the details are mind blowing. Even the vestals seating on their temple's steps. Incredible

I'm struck, each time I watch this, by how much of "Gladiator" was borrowed from this film. But "Gladiator" made no attempt to address the chaotic aftermath of Commodus' death: Publius Helvius Pertinax ( 1 August 126 - 28 March 193) was Roman emperor for the first three months of 193. He succeeded Commodus to become the first emperor during the tumultuous Year of the Five Emperors.

the set of this movie represents the roman forum, it was the greatest set built for that time. Stephen Boyd ex Messala in Ben Hur ,died in 1977 at 45 , Christopher Plummer ex captain von tramp from the sound of music in the part of Commodus. Anthony Quayle ex Guns of Navarro ,in the part of Commodus' secret father. all died. rip.

Excellent movie and can't believe I was unaware of it. Sophia Loren is so versatile as well as beautiful. Love history movies a real epic.

This movie is one of my all time favorites now.Made more than a half century ago and it’s still much better than roman movies,series in the recent years

Thanks Flick Vault 🙏. A great gift indeed. I liked the screenplay. Filming of the battles is superb. What a movie the makers have mounted. I am overawed! Actors have lived their roles. And what an ensemble of actors. All my favourite ❤️!

These old movies are just about unheard of 😢 I love these old movies When I was small there use to be an old movie organisation (Epic Theatre) screened all these old movies, I use to watch these movies Saturday mornings Loved it

This is one of the greatest epics ever made, which does not come as much of a surprise, considering the source (Edward Gibbon) and that Anthony Mann sat in the directors chair, the genius who we have to thank for EL CID and so many great James Stewart western including THE NAKED SPUR. A masterpiece, which still does not receive the praise it deserves.

I really am fascinated by this movie. A fine production. Of course, the history has been stretched, but that is ok for a movie. If I want a documentary, I watch one.

I watched this movie 20years ago I'm here watching it again,this movie reminds me of my late father who bought the cassette at that time Rest well daddy,Rest well soldier for making my child hood a memorable one

This is the film "Gladiator" wishes it could be ( and is basically a copy of).

Have seen this on the big screen in my teen years. Thanks it is now in you tube!

This is something amazing gift for Roman History lovers I have recently started following roman history and I fell in love with it, please upload more of such stuff

one of the best films classics along side ben hur baarrabas nd others when i was young only roman films and biblical used to watch .....coming from Malta ...the biggest roman film being filmed here and being an extra brings me a lot of memories i had it also vhs

This is one of the spectacular pictures that we wanted to see at the cinema. First of all because the history and the story was intriguing< second because before we could enjoy a great spectacular movie that lasted for long time sitting in a chair of the cinema. When I saw it first time I was a child. But I can't say that this picture is the best of the historical series we were used to watch.

Omg, what a masterpiece, I really enjoy this movie

Spectacular movie of ancient history.I enjoyed watching great battle of the chariots and the woman he loved.

A powerful empire destroyed not from outside but from within. The remaining empire still existing now will follow suit. So it will come, so it will be written as history.

Thank you much for uploading and in great quality too. I love these movies. Looking for the Robe and its sequel?

I always love historical movies. When I see all my favorite actors in a single screen I get goosebumps Alec Guiness,James Mason, Steven Boyd, Christopher Plummer and the lovely Sophia Loren. I think I saw Omar Sheriff in a shot

Who are all beleive of achieving *Power* through bribery without caring for welfare of people will definitely end their dynasty at the end 🙏 excellent inspiring movie 👌

A must see movie not just a movie but destined to become one of the greatest for young, old bravo to this movie thanks

And it is happening right now! Our "wonderful civilisation" is dying within because of people's stupidity and greed. We never learn any lesson.

Great movie, one of the best epic movies ever made

Great movie. Thanks for uploading. New subscriber here. Love and kisses from the Philippines ❤️🇵🇭.

I'm algerian north African berber and I am proud we are the indirect descendants of the roman empire

Película extraordinaria, me he dado un banquete, muchísimas gracias por compartir !!!!!!!!!

So beautifully acted..when acting was acting..So well Cinematographed.

Sofia Loren at the pinnacle of her beauty!

What a masterpiece, pity there were no credits. The sets were incredible; must have had an enormous budget. Brilliant movie, a treasure for posterity. We'll never produce such quality entertainment ever again!!

the stars are so young, its nice to see them!!

Before watching the film go to: Fall of the Roman Empire 1964) title theme and listen to the incredible opening music. This film and Ben Hur both have stunning title themes. Here it is missing.

08:50-12:10: A breath-taking scene. A lot of history in just a couple of minutes. I will try to break it down. 08:51 Marcus Aurelius: "Welcome, Mithridates. Welcome Petra." Fictional. However, there were at least 22 rulers of 8 Roman era states (Cius, Pontus, Parthia, Commagene, Media Atropatene, Bosporus, Armenia and Iberia) who carried the regnal name Mithridates. Of these 22 rulers, none lived during the reign of Marcus Aurelius. That said, the most famous of the aforementioned namesake was Mithridates VI Eupator. Mithridates VI Eupator (120-63 BC), dubbed as "Mithridates the Great", was the last rule of an independent Pontus. A formidable leader who created the ideology Mithridatism (= protection against poision), he was seen by his contemporaries as the last protector of Hellenic freedom. After his death, Pontus was incorporated into Rome. 09:12 Marcus Aurelius: "Greetings, Costobacus, king of the Omnia." Fictional. 09:29 Marcus Aurelius: "Serverus, proconsul of Judea." 09:44 Marcus Aurelius: "Africa." 09:55 Marcus Aurelius: "Marcellus, friend of Caesar." 10:15 Marcus Aurelius: "Virgilianus, proconsul of Syria." 10:42 Marcus Aurelius: "Pericles of Athens (Greek, Greek, Greek!)." Fictional. However, there was a Pericles of Athens who lived between 495 BC and 429 BC. Pericles, eventually acclaimed as "First Citizen of Athens, was a influential Greek politician and general in the times of the Persian wars. Altough the Roman Republic was already established in 509 BC, their are no known relations between him and Rome. 11:08 Marcus Aurelius: "Rome is honored, Sohamus, that Armenia's king is with us." Refers to Gaius Julius Sohaemus, King of Armenia for two reign (144-161 and 163-181) in a time where the Kingdom of Greater Armenia was indeed a client state of Rome. It was, however, never a Roman province, although Marcus Aurelius had tried many times. The second reign of Sohamus was the result of Lucius Verus himself, who offered him peace terms during the Roman-Parthian War. 11:52 Marcus Aurelius: "Welcome, Pertinax. Welcome, Britannia". Refers to Publius Helvius Pertinax (126-193), son of a freed slave who became an officer in the Roman Army, with a posting in Britannia. In the aftermath of the death of Commodus, he was crowned Caesar for three months during the Year of the Five Emperors.

one of the best roman battle scenes all extras no computer graphics and the arms and weapons very accurate

The film is GR8. English subtitles would have helped better understanding of the film. Please insert English subtitles as requested. Next time I hope to see the film with English subtitles. I am an Indian (Asia).

This might be the most unsung movie ever! And just about as great as 'Gladiator'.

The Fall of Rome: when Ben Hur, Spartacus and El Cid got put in a blender and mixed together!

A fantastically amazing epic of death and destruction; I doubt if such a production could be made today. It would cost maybe $1 billion to reproduce it and I think that skill has gone in the shape of the metaverse and worse.

Great movie. James Mason is so great in this.

Back when films were made without the gratuitous sex scenes, without the need to virtue signal and without the need to diversify the cast. Those were the days!

Forgot to say, it looks stunning!

The golden past. The age without digital era.....produced such a fantastic, mesmerising movie....the fall of Rome. Enemy lies within me.....within you.....realise it. destroy it, and the world will be a better place for all, for you and me

This is what Hollywood called "cast of thousands." Quite an epic, very entertaining.

A very nice movie. These production bears a heavy historical content which is good for us to get a glimpse of the past.

I should have been more observant when the movie started and I missed the introduction; I was thinking during the cremation scene 'wasn't Julius Caesar stabbed to death on the way to the forum'? So of course on closer inspection I find the death of Marcus Aurelius is mentioned in the plot summary. As to why ancient Rome fell apart, perhaps a better saying to sum it up would be: 'An empire begins to die when it makes war on itself'; which if true is more exception than rule. A lot of countries that had civil wars did not collapse because of them.

I appreciate the efforts to make this happen. The quality amaze me.

Great movie love it

Eu va multumesc ptr acest film , regizorilor si actori ,

Great spectacular movie- huge setting and extras. It's the first time I watched it. Boyd and Loren were brilliant. Not sure Plummer is the type for that role but nevertheless I enjoyed it very much😀

Fantastic movie. Thank you for your amazing efforts.

The analogy with present days is ...shall I say, sad? " There´s is nothing new under the sun".We haven´t learnt anything.

Great movie.Thanks👍👍👍💓

Beautiful vision n sound n back ground of this movie..

very well made, amazing movie

Great movie !Superb!!Thank you for sharing..!!❤️❤️

40:00 one of the cleaniest wild forests ever seen. No old wood on the ground, no bushes....

I was searching this movie for a long time Thanks God I found

Muitobom parabéns pelos FILMES

I just finished watching Ben Hur I was completely astounded by it am giving this movie a watch

Watching the first half hour of this, you can see that Ridley Scott borrowed a great deal from this film in making Gladiator. Not that this is a bad thing, by any means.

THOSE OLD CLASICAL MOVIES ARE ALWAYS THE BEST

Your style of presentation makes learning history so interesting. Thank you!!! 🧠✨

Great movie. Feel like we are back in ancient time

Outstanding Movie.

Great movie. Sophia Loren in this era was incredibly beautiful !!

Alec Guinness doing a great Kenobi warm up right there 00:58

one great movie , from Recife Brazil

Iim from northeast India Christian really loved to watch this kind of ancient mistakes

Thanks for Great hard efforts put to give This movies 🍿

What a movie, l wonder how much it cast wow.

MONUMENTAL ROME, all other empires can just kneel to you and your shocking beauty, might and elegance., city and empire that surpasses everything. No surprise that when Rome collapsed, World immediatelly entered PERIOD OF DARK AGES, we can see here why, it was greatest empire that ever existed

Love the fact it still has the old school "Intermission" stage at 1:32:22

WOW GREAT EPIC GREAT CLASSIC MAGNIFCENT BIG CAST CONGRATULATIONS FROM BRAZIL 17/11/21

It was so nice to hear Sir Alec Guiness' voice again.

The Fall of the roman empire was a great succes. To liberate the slaves, all poor workers, and barbaric violence was fullfilling a dream of the generationen of majority. End of the injustice.

Great movie !

Funny how Plummer tried to speak a distinguished Shakespeare english like Guinness and Mason as a Canadian.

Movie largely tanked at the box office - and killed the career of Stephen Boyd, which was a shame because he was a fine film actor.

'Gladiator' in 1992 shares the same fictionalized premise--Wicked selfish Commodus (or his supporters) kill his wise and peace-loving father and the chosen successor . GIven the success of several other ROman -era epics of that period, it was worth a try. The cast is certainly good.

thanks for this!!!

Absolute drama from the beginning. Why don't they make movies like this anymore 🤷‍♂️

This is a great history

Stephen boyd is my darling loved him when i first saw him in Ben Hur so gorgeous r.i.p darling D.Ngauma

GLADIATOR, SE INSPIRÓ EN ESTE MAGNIFICO FILM, PLAGADO DE BUENAS ESTRELLAS, RODADO EN ESPAÑA .

when i see this movie, i think alec guinness role as marcus aurelios functions as a kind of pre-role-model for his Star Wars role as Obi Wan Kenobi.

First time watching this film. First thought in my mind at the opening scene, Obi-wan as Caesar. Obi wan was telling Luke about how the empire came about and Caesar talking how the empire will be.
