    • Trivia
      In the United States, most of the Italian produced sword and sandal/mythological muscle man movies were booked by exhibitors into their "B" theaters, usually as part of a double feature. With the teaming of both Steve Reeves and Gordon Scott, Paramount was able to get this booked into many "A" theaters as a single feature.

    Italian Peplum Classic with Steve REEVES, Virna LISI and Gordon SCOTT

    With Steve REEVES and Gordon SCOTT, the two greatest sword and sandal film actors meet. It's about the two hostile brothers who, according to legend, were responsible for the founding of Rome. The argument escalates when the beautiful Julia (Virna LISI, Silver Palm for LA REINE MARGOT) enters the lives of the two brothers.

    José GRECI and Massimo GIROTTI can also be seen in other roles. Sergio LEONE contributed to the script and was directed by Sergio CORBUCCI. 848,000 tickets were sold in West German cinemas (source: InsideKino).

    One of the best sword and sandal films from the heyday of the genre!
