7The Fall of the Roman Empire (Anthony Mann – 1964)

Although Mann’s 1964 epic did not do well at the Box Office, it is undoubtedly an important film that chronicles the life of Marcus Aurelius.
Loren stars as Lucilla, daughter of Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius (Alec Guinness) and lover of General Gaius Livius (Stephen Boyd) who has an eye on the throne.
