Movie Info
Returning from a military campaign abroad, General Marcus Vinicius (Robert Taylor) discovers that a new religion has taken hold in Rome: Christianity. When Vinicius encounters Lygia (Deborah Kerr), a follower of the strange religion, he quickly becomes smitten and tries to win her affections. Lygia is reluctant due to their differing beliefs. Complicating matters is the crazed Emperor Nero (Peter Ustinov), who blames the Christians for his own burning of Rome, beginning a wave of persecution.

Peter Ustinov is a great Nero, but like a lot of these epics it is mostly dull and overly melodramatic.

Apparently, the term "quo vadis" translates to "boring" in both Latin and English.

Another fabulous Roman epic that is really carried by the great Sir Peter Ustinov as Nero. What a tremendous performance.

This is the finest example of a true religious epic. Grand spectacle, amazing performances, catchy music... This is a must-see over and over again! Two Thumps UP
