Caesar is all-powerful in Rome. The Roman Senate is subservient to him. All but the semblance of democratic government has been lost. What is a patriotic Roman to do? This is an accessible and well presented version of Shakespeare's classic play of political intrigue, assassination, and civil war in Ancient Rome.
The TeachWithMovies.com Learning Guide to Julius Caesar will help teachers use this film to introduce Shakespeare and to discuss a critical period in the history of Ancient Rome. The background and discussion questions provided by the Guide raise the important issue of how one determines when the right to resist tyranny justifies assassination.
