The Erotic Dreams of Cleopatra
Cleopatra would be a very successful influencer today, probably the most richest in the world
She entered in the collective imagination between legends and
historical reconstructions, Cleopatra boasts a beauty and seduction, to
which, tell historians must be added a great deal of intelligence and
diplomacy...
Between appearing to Julius Caesar in a sack of hemp, to then convince
him of his goodness and seduce Marco Antonio, descending half-naked
from a ship, the queen, also famous for a romantic death (perhaps very
imaginative), has inspired the arts often.
Needless to count the works inspired by her and the films that have
transposed her figure (do you have Liz Taylor in front of you?), But in
this immense world, there is space for “The erotic dream of
Cleopatra".
An Italian-French production, directed by Rino Di Silvestro, who writes
the screenplay with Marcel Albertini and sign as Cesar Todd. As wrote
the Italian magazine “Nocturno”, this movie was shot on the
sets of “Ars Amandi” by Walerian Borowkzyk, for obvious
costs reason.
To Marcella Petrelli the task of play the role of the queen and, at
least physically, she goes close to the icon, but on a recitative
level, there is not the slightest rapprochement with her most famous
colleagues. She is the protagonist of an erotic film that sometimes
looks for a dramatic or soap opera narrative line. In short, between
orgies and sex with Cleopatra who seems to have preference for women,
the rest conspire against Caesar and fuck. Indeed, they fuck and
occasionally conspire.
We are in Rome in 46 BC. and she, the Queen, is obsessed with a
nightmare in which Caesar dies stabbed. She tries in every way to avoid
the drama, in every way (...). But Rome is a place where everyone
aspires to power and where everyone is ready to betray, like Kelmis
(played by Rita Silva) at the head of the Queen's handmaids, who weaves
plots and under plots, having sex with anyone who passes near her.
It's not the spoiler but the story as we know it ends, Cleopatra or not, Julius Caesar is assassinated.
To tell the truth, it is often boring, badly acted and with an evident
very small budget. But Rino Di Silvestro donates erotic trash pearls
not to be missed. Cleopatra who to please Julius Caesar masturbates a
white horse while he had sex with her. The queen having fun in bed with
a snake. Then there is Dolabella who with a play of light and shadow
shows a huge penis, while two Cleopatra's handmaids practice oral sex,
a character played by the good Venatino Venatini, who is uncredited.
And we can understand why.
