Pierre Cressoy and Hélène Rémy in THE BARBARIANS (1953) 

A very well made movie few people know. It was written and produced by Mario Francisci, who is related to Pietro Francisci, director of HERCULES (1958). The two leads in this Italian production are French actors! The movie is known under other titles, including THE SACK OF ROME and THE PAGANS. The movie is interesting as it has a different style compared to other productions with the same type of story. I got the Italian version recently while the English version was always available. A rare situation in collecting PEPLUM movies. 

NOTE: my main computer crashed at the beginning of my break. I'm still in the process of fixing up everything as it used to be but it will take some time so I'll be posting irregularly until everything is finally settled. Sorry about this. Most of my files are still on the old computer. I hope you understand.
