Clodius - The Irresistible Scoundrel

Friday June 27, 2003
"You know the movie *I* would like to see: the dashing young P. Clodius in all his complex, fascinating glory! What's NOT to like, from a Hollywood point of view? The cachet of his family's name, a spoiled rich brat, possible incest (Angelina Jolie as Clodia?), cross-dressing, bribery, bullying his enemy into exile, turning on perhaps the most powerful man in the world, an incomprehensibly sane and balanced legislative program, welfare, demagoguery, street violence, and a spectacularly bloody end." - Papagnaeus
