In four pages or less, describe how the three movies watched in class portrayed the fall of the Roman Empire
According to these three movies the fall of the Roman Empire was caused by bad acting, Russel Crowe's man-PMS, and oh, the Christians. Therefore if the Romans had taken a gigantic Midol and decided apon on a religious purge NOT involving lions, perhaps we would be wearing togas and eating pomegranates as a major food group as all good Roman citizens do. Instead all we have left of this once great political and social structure are our plumbing systems and a burning desire to squash grapes with our feet.
