Julius Caesar

Brutus, Cassius, and other high-ranking Romans murder Caesar, because they believe his ambition will lead to tyranny. The people of Rome are on their side until Antony, Caesar's right-hand man, makes a moving speech. The conspirators are driven from Rome, and two armies are formed: one side following the conspirators; the other, Antony. Antony has the superior force, and surrounds Brutus and Cassius, but they kill themselves to avoid capture. (imdb)

Good acting, but I just dislike reading and watching Shakespeare's tragedies. They are too dull for my own personal tastes.

The ending is a mess (and not Shakespeare), but until the battles start, this is an effective version. James Mason is a very good Brutus--earnest, pompous, but likable and finally horrified at what he has done. Brando's Antony is attractive and untrustworthy, the prettiest and most dangerous of reptiles.

Mankiewicz is not just a great writer but a great director of dialogue, and so even though the words aren't his own, he translates Shakespeare with the uniquely cinematic grace and respect for the power of the spoken word that defines his earlier films. Where Guys and Dolls preserves the proscenium arch, upping the artificiality to delirious effect, Julius Caesar places the viewer right in front of the action reaching its apex in the close-up horror on Brutus' face as he deals the final blow.

I know it's Shakespeare, but there is too much dialogue for me to enjoy this film.
