卡尼古拉是罗马帝国最荒淫,残暴的皇帝之一。这部史诗般的大制作影片描述了这位暴君从杀父篡位到死于乱戟之下的短暂一生,和其中所犯下的种种罪恶和荒淫。影片由意大利著名导演Tinto Brass执导,演员包括Malcolm McDowell, Peter O'Toole, John Gielgud。
这部带有强烈背景的电影不一定会绝后,但一定是空前的。它完成于西方性解放的高峰时期,正是由于该电影的上映,许多国开始施行更为严厉的电影审查和分级制度。
到目前为止,还没有任何一部电影能够拍的如此大气,同时大尺度开放地把人类各种丑恶行径融于一体。
这是一部会在电影史上留下痕迹的,独特的电影。尽管一直充满著争议。

In 2013, an Australian man a few months shy of turning 60 decided to walk the Camino de Santiago – an 800km pilgrimage trail across the top of Spain. He had no known religion, and absolutely no idea why he felt so deeply compelled to do this torturous walk.
But compelled, he was.
He completed the walk, battling a “triumvirate of pain” - a knee that he later discovered lacked any meaningful cartilage, a blister the sight of which would make a grown man weep, and shin-soreness that felt like his lower limb had been split with a mountain axe wielded by a demented troll.
Arriving at the end of the Camino, the majestic cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, he expected an epiphany – an answer to the question he’d been asking himself every day: Why am I doing this?
But no answer came.
So when he got home he wrote a book, hoping the answer would reveal itself in his scribblings. The result was The Way, My Way, a humourous and self-deprecating book that many consider the best memoir ever written on walking the Camino.
The book has now been made into a film, and it’s an extraordinary account of a man at a pivotal point in his life, searching for meaning and finding himself undergoing a fundamental transformation so profound that he now divides his life into “Before the Camino” and “After the Camino.”
It’s a story particular to one man, yet of appeal to anyone seeking a greater meaning from life.
