<p>[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 4179715, member: 51347"]John, I saw an Italian movie on Scipio from the late 30’s on NetFlix or Amazon Prime that was really good! It was kinda a propaganda film for Italy at that time, but they did a great job depicting Ancient Rome’s struggle against Hannibal and Carthage. Scipio was the central figure, and I did not feel it was a propaganda film. Rather, I saw pride in their ancient heritage and bringing that history to life in a good movie.
