Rome (2005)

Rome is the sweeping historical drama tracing the late Roman Republic. It followed the political intrigue and bloody power struggles of that era. The series built its reputation on unflinching ambition, violence, and desire. It never shied away from any of the three. Polly Walker's Atia of the Julii became the show's most scandalous schemer. Her manipulations often spilled into scenes of unguarded intimacy. Zuleikha Robinson brought a quieter, smoldering intensity as Servilia. She was caught in her own tangled web of seduction and betrayal. The archive holds 3 scenes pulled from the show. These scenes capture both actresses bared and exposed. It's a fitting collection for a series built on exposure. It strips away Rome's polished marble facade to reveal the flesh beneath.
