The private thoughts of Julius Caesar starring Donald Pleasence
Caesar was the first modern dictator. He gave his name to history, a name which meant power, and pride - Caesar, Kaiser, Tsar.
In 44 BC Caesar was warned to beware the Ides of March - the day of his assassination. How might he have reflected, during the long night before his own bloody death, on his lifetime's journey down the seductive path to absolute power?
Adapted from Rex Warner's novel by Christopher Burstall
