Plot: Beautiful and touching movie about the Roman Empire. Romulus Augustus (by the way, 12-year-old ) became the emperor of Rome, but his reigning lasted only for 1 day. Afterwards, the whole Empire turned into chaos. He went away to the island of Capri and decided to spend their the rest of his live there, but a sudden event disturbs his plans – he finds a famous sword of Julius Caesar, a so-called “excaliburnus”. And the story begins…

The release date of this film (as you can see) the 17th of August 2007, but real premiere (and the first one) took place in Russia at the 21st of APRIL!!! To tell the truth, I haven’t watched it yet, but opinions from the Russians are rather pessimistic. They told this movie to be a completely soul-less, uninteresting and disappointed. And the end was stunning. Not in a good sense of this word. “The Last Legion” didn’t impress them.

But I like actress Aishwarya Rai. She is very beautiful and talented. She was born in a typical Indian family on the 1st of November 1973. Since the childhood she was a model and an often star in advertisements. In 1994 she became Miss India and then Miss World. Afterwards, she tried herself in Indian film-industry and finally found her destination. Her eyes are amazing – they are of unusual colour – green-grey. She had a lot of awards. her most famous campaigns are Pepsi-ads and Vogue magazine interview. She was a girl-friend of Salman Khan. Adores watches. While studying at college her favourite subject was Zoology. In 203 became an official ambassador from the L’Oreal. Knows 5 languages and gets at least 1 movie offer each day. In 2004 the Times Magazine named her as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. She was a member of the Jury in Cannes in 2003.

Her own quotes:

• I always knew I would be successful. So there was no element of surprise
• You give to the world your greatest gift when you’re being yourself
• Life is a stage, and we are all characters. So play your part and play it well!

The last phrase is very much alike with the Shakespearean one!
