To be honest, the movie lost me in the first ten minutes. Nero was a
yawner, and when I could believe him, the rest of the movie fell behind
and I had no connection to the rape scenes at all. I hate to say all of
this: Fiennes and Bassett two of my favorite actors and I'd gleefully go
see the movie version of a plumbing manual if it starred one (or both)
of those two...but the source material for this flick was just plain
bad...
