To everyone coming to this video to express their condolences for Ray, let me just say that I am honored to provide you a space to do so. He was my favorite actor in my all-time favorite show but he was also a genuinely good man who could make you see humanity in even the most brutish of characters. May we all get to one day meet Ray on the fields of Elysium. And of course... THIRTEENTH!

This has a basis of fact, "Titus Pullo was one of the two Roman centurions of the 11th Legion (Legio XI Claudia) mentioned in the writings of Julius Caesar. The other soldier mentioned was Lucius Vorenus; they appear in Caesar's Commentarii de Bello Gallico, Book 5, Chapter 44. Pullo and Vorenus were fierce rivals for promotion to primus pilus, the most senior centurion in a legion. Both distinguished themselves in 54 BC when the Nervii attacked the legion under Quintus Cicero in their winter quarters in Nervian territory. In an effort to outdo Vorenus, Pullo charged out of the fortified camp and attacked the enemy, but was soon wounded and surrounded. Vorenus followed and engaged his attackers in hand-to-hand combat, killing one and driving the rest back, but lost his footing and was himself soon surrounded. Pullo in turn rescued Vorenus, and after killing several of the enemy, the pair returned to camp amid applause from their comrades."

Feminists, SJWs, and other leftists groups whined and whined and it ended up being cancelled despite the tremendous acting, quality of the set, plot, etc. being amazing. Really made me angry.

I can't find it anymore. It was just one of those youtube opinion piece news channel with insider info about internal struggles and that they were making up the story as they went instead of having a book to draw on and so forth. They didn't word it like I did, and used a more positive spin about how they wanted a more inclusive and diverse cast that wasn't possible in the historic Roman framework, etc.but basically the gist of what I just said in a negative way. And they accomplished that with Game of Thrones, that didn't have to portray the realistic gender roles of the Roman empire as a fantasy series, so women could fight just as well or better than men, they could have an entire race of people of color interacting for a more diverse cast, and so forth with powerful matriarchies and witches that played the male kings like pawns with anti-slavery liberation theme versus Rome's ambivalence or possibly even dismissive attitude as Posca was a slave and yet really just an employee or subject in most respects.

A roman citizen cannot be crusified. Crucifixion was a way of punishment for non citizens who either were hard criminals or traitors to the state. For example, Jesus was crusified because the jewish priests, who thought Jesus as a heretic, blamed him to the roman authorities as a criminal who plans to overthrow roman rule in Judea and name himself ΄΄King΄΄. Another example of crusifixion is for the rebels who followed Spartacus.

That first scene, when the disfigured guy asks Pullo "what's wrong with him?" (Speaking of Vorenus). Pullo gives him a friendly shrug and a smile like "oh you know, he's gonna mess you up, I'd listen to him if I were you" That's the simple understated, perfect delivery of an actor that knows exactly how to support a scene and make it really shine. For any aspiring actors out there, Pullo puts on a masterclass of how to be a leading man in a #2 role. He doesn't overact, doesn't try to force his position, and because he communicates mostly with body language and facial expressions you find yourself paying extra attention to what he's doing in every scene he's in. He may be my favorite part of the entire series. If anyone watching this hasn't seen the series yet, it's called ROME and it's on HBO and it is worth paying for a subscription to HBO for this show alone. Warning: you will want to watch this more than once.
@CERTAIND00M Жыл бұрын
Ray Stevenson (Pullo) is one of my favorite actors and you're absolutely right. His performance in Rome is so perfectly natural and understated, that he can't help but demand your attention in every scene he's in.

Indeed great time. They should make a new rome series, or start new series under a different name. i mean why not, 2 viking series ( vikings and the last kingdom) are succesfull, why should a new rome serie not be a succes?

What a good series , Awesome actors. Vorenus and Pullo actors did a wonderful job (Kevin mc Kidd, Ray Stevenson),I loved the acting of James Purefoy (Mark Anthony) and Young Octavianus (Max Pirkis) But in general all the other actors were awesome too.

Have you seen "Punisher: War Zone"? Ray Stevenson plays the Punisher in it, or as I like to call him, "the Pullonisher". It's one of the greatest things ever, ESPECIALLY if you love Rome and/or absurdly violent comic book movies.

Have you watched "the Terror", that miniseries about the British expedition to try and find the northwest passage? Caesar plays the captain in charge of the expedition and Brutus is his first mate I think. There's even an Easter egg for Rome fans: all of the crew get together one night to have a costume party and Brutus arrives dressed as a centurion.

@@tommyboyindy1157 Hmm.. I'd say it is a dark humor type of comedy drama with psychological stuff sometimes. The show is about a family that runs a funeral home out of LA. Many episodes begin with the recently deceased's last moments. The story of the Fisher family is quite the whirlwind let me tell ya.

He was every man, and Ray, God love him, was us in that series. Such a wonderful man and gone way way too soon. Godspeed, Ray. You will be sorely missed!

Lucius Vorenius and Titus Pullo were templates and icons used originally by Gaius Julius Caesar in his "Commentaries on the Gallic Wars" which was what really began where Caesar started to gain traction as a legend in his own lifetime. The two centurions were actual historical figures who served under Caesar's command apart from that not much is actually known about them.

I just now discovered this and finished the first season. Usually I never watch sandal-series, hehe, but this was pretty crazy, I had to refresh my little knowledge about the Roman Empire. Funny that they mentioned Pannonia, it's another crazy thing that my little town in Hungary belonged to the Roman Empire 2000 years ago, I guess there was only forest there though. What a brilliant series, I love how the show how the small people lived, how difficult life was even in the center of power, happiness disappeared so fast in those times...it's such a visceral show.
