Line 1: {{work\|wppage=Caligula (film)}} [[File:CALIGULA.jpg\|thumb\|300px]] Line 5: {{quote\|''"What shall it profit a man if he should gain the whole world and lose his own soul?"''\|'''[[The Bible\|Mark 8:36]]''', [[As the Good Book Says...\|quoted at the film's beginning.]]}} '''''Caligula''''' is a 1979 Italian-American [[Porn ~~With~~with Plot\|erotic]] historical drama film focusing on the rise and fall of the Roman Emperor [[Emperor Caligula\|Caligula]]. It stars [[Malcolm McDowell]], Teresa Ann Savoy, Helen Mirren, [[Peter O'Toole]], John Steiner and John Gielgud. It is the only feature film produced by the men's magazine Penthouse. It became very controversial for its violent and sexual content and had all sorts of legal issues at the time. The film is [[Vindicated by History\|now seen]] as a [[Cult Classic]]. {{Needs More Info}} For the [[Troubled Production\|troubled]] development history, see [[Caligula/Development History\|here]]. Line 25 ⟶ 27: * [[Den of Iniquity]]: Tiberius's mansion. * [[Depraved Bisexual]]: Caligula. * [[Driven to Suicide]] {{spoiler\|Nerva,}} who has had enough of Tiberius's reign and can't bear the fact Caligula will be the next emperor. * [[Droit du seigneur]]: Caligula exercises his right by {{spoiler\|raping both Proculus and his new wife}}, [[Moral Event Horizon\|a pretty sickening thing to do]]. * [[Epic Movie]]: Possibly the only [[Epic Movie]] (and the only movie starring Malcolm Mcdowell, Helen Mirren, Peter O' Toole and Sir John Gielgud) to feature unsimulated hardcore sex. <!--* [[Euroshlock]]: Its writer was American, but its director, setting and filming-location were Italian, and its actors were British. And its producer was American but of Italian descent. Therefore, it counts.--> Line 61 ⟶ 64: [[Category:Caligula]] [[Category:Film]] [[Category:Formerly Banned On TV Tropes]] [[Category:Films With Recuts]] [[Category:Films of the 1970s]] [[Category:Epic Movie]] [[Category:Pornography]] [[Category:Italian Films]] [[Category:Independent Films]] [[Category:Pages with working Wikipedia tabs]] [[Category:Biopic]] [[Category:Cult Classic]]
