I Claudius

The following pages contain spoilers!

I had heard that the video transfer was terrible. I'm not a videophile, but I didn't think it was that bad for its age.

Also included on the dvd is a featurette called The Epic That Never Was, about the aborted 1937 I, Claudius, starring Charles Laughton and Merle Oberon. Laughton gives a speech that just knocked me out.
