Roman Britain in the Cinema

Tony Keen

This day school looks at how the Roman Province of Britannia has been portrayed in cinema. It focusses on three aspects central to how Britain is depicted: (1) Narratives of resistance – the Roman invasion of Britain and the revolt of Boudicca; (2) Narratives of settlement – tales of Hadrian’s Wall and Arthur; (3) Narratives of exile – Britons elsewhere in the Roman empire. Movies looked at include Carry On Cleo, The Viking Queen, King Arthur, Centurion and The Eagle.
