The post Cecil B. DeMille – Union Pacific (1939) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

During Boys’ Week at racially integrated North High School, students Steve Smith, Gus Ruffo and Billy Anderson are elected to temporarily hold the city offices of district attorney, judge and chief of police. After Jewish tailor Herman refuses to pay protection money to Louis Garrett, Garrett’s gang bombs his store. Herman and the student who was with him survive the blast, but Herman is later murdered by Garrett after he again refuses to pay. Garrett is acquitted of murder charges because he has a perfect alibi. Steve, who had taken the stand during the trial, is humiliated by his experience as a witness because he failed to prove Garrett’s guilt. Billy, Gus and Sam Weber decide to investigate for themselves and discover part of a cufflink at the scene of the murder. They break into Garrett’s bedroom, but Garrett is tipped off by Morry Dover, a student who is competing with Steve for the affection of Gay Merrick. While at Garrett’s club with Gay, Dover introduces her to Toledo, Garrett’s thug. Garrett shoots Billy, killing him, and frames Gus for the murder and robbery. After the funeral, Steve blames Gay for telling Dover about the plan to break into Garrett’s apartment. He gathers all the student body presidents from neighboring high schools and formulates a plan to arrest Garrett. With the help of hundreds of students, Steve captures Garrett and takes him to a local brickyard for a secret trial. In the meantime, Gay and Dover, in an attempt to redeem themselves, capture Toledo’s attentions, although Gay is forced to seduce him. Garrett confesses after the students suspend him over a pit filled with rats, and the mob marches him to city hall, with the assistance of the police, to get a witnessed confession. Meanwhile, the real “big” boss of Garrett’s protection racket leaves town. After eluding Toledo, Gay arrives to witness Garrett’s arrest. Garrett signs the confession, Gus is released, and Steve, Gay and Dover, sit in a car she temporarily borrowed to get there, listening to a broadcast about themselves until a police officer arrests them for being in a stolen vehicle.

The post Cecil B. DeMille – Cleopatra (1934) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Synopsis:
A tale of the fall of Rome at the hand of the half-mad Emperor Nero, who sets fires throughout the city, blaming the Christians and sentencing them to death. The selfish Empress takes revenge when the object of her desire spurns her for the love of a Christian woman.

Review:
As Rome is burning in the year 64, the emperor Nero (Charles Laughton) laughs and plays his lyre. Tigellinus (Ian Keith) reports the fire is spreading and the rumors that Nero started it. Nero hopes the Christians will die and accepts Tigellinus’ suggestion to blame them for the fire. After the fire Titus meets another bearded man by making the sign of the cross on the ground. They are arrested by soldiers, but Marcus Superbus (Fredric March) as Prefect of Rome stops the disturbance with his whip. When the beautiful Mercia (Elissa Landi) pleads for them, he lets them go.

Asses’ milk is collected for the bath of Nero’s wife Poppaea (Claudette Colbert), and her friend Dacia tells her about Marcus. Marcus meets Mercia at a fountain and asks her for water. Tigellinus gives him the order to exterminate Christians. Soldiers waiting for Mercia arrest the boy Stephan at the bakery. Marcus visits Mercia’s home to take her away. Stephan is questioned and under torture says the meeting will be at the grove; then he faints. Marcus comes in, revives him, and learns where the meeting is. On the way his chariot runs over Poppaea’s carriage; she insists he talk with her and has him followed. In the grove the Christians sing softly, and then Titus preaches until he is shot with an arrow. The archers are slaughtering the Christians until Marcus arrives; he orders the wounded cared for and sends the rest to prison, ordering Mercia to be brought to him later. The next day Marcus visits Poppaea, who is jealous and loves him; but he says he is loyal to Nero. Tigellinus reports to Nero what happened, and Poppaea tells Nero to destroy the girl but not Marcus.

Leaving his feast Marcus calls in Mercia, who pleads for the other Christians. The revelers break in on them, and he introduces her to them. Ancaria sings “The Naked Moon,” but the Christians are heard singing on the way to the arena dungeon. Mercia asks to go with them, but Marcus wants her to live with him, not die, criticizing her religion. Tigellinus comes in with soldiers and arrests Mercia. Marcus asks Nero for Mercia; but Nero says she must renounce being a Christian. One hundred Christians are to be executed in the arena. While the Christians wait, gladiators fight; criminals are killed by wild animals, and women fight dwarves. The Christians pray and then are whipped into the arena, as Mercia says that death is “only a crossing over to the Father.” Mercia is made to wait while the lions attack the Christians. Stephan is afraid, but she gives him courage, promising to follow after him; he goes to his death singing. Marcus arrives and asks Mercia to renounce her faith. She refuses to do so, and finally Marcus decides to accompany her into the arena.

The historical circumstances of this story while generally true do not include a top Roman official sacrificing himself with the Christians. The clash is poignant between the Roman values of power and pleasure and the Christian virtues of gentleness and mercy.
