Official Full Roman Senate Showdown Sequence from the Feature Film "476 A.D. Chapter One: The Last Light of Aries" With Croatian Subtitles.
Showdown in the Senate between Aëtius Patrius Majorian and Senator Magnus This is an excerpt from the feature film "476 A.D." It is from the sequence of the film known as the Rumble in the Senate, or the Final Showdown in the Roman Senate, as the end is imminent.
It is September 2nd 476 A.D. Only two days before the Ostrogoths finally sack the City of Rome in the early morning hours of Sptember 4th, and finally the Ostrogoth Chieftain Odoacer takes over the city that same day, by the famous act of deposing of the Last Western Roman Emperor Romulus Augustulus. Hence with this famous/infamous act of deposing of the Last Western Roman Emperor Romulus Augustulus, Odoacer officially ends the 1,300 years of Roman Power, thus giving way to the next 1,000 years of the Dark Ages.
In this awkward sequence between the young Aëtius Patrius Majorian, and the unproven plotter of his father's Falvius Aëtius' murder, Senator Flavius Magnus, the tension is rising, as the time is running out, the clock is ticking, and the fire's burning under their toes. With the Last Roman Stronghold of Ravenna destroyed earlier that same day, North of Rome is completely undefended, thus path to Rome is now completely open for attacks, and the Army of Ostrogoths finally move towards the Outskirts of Rome, ready to fulfill their centuries old dream of crushing the City once and for all.
Young General Aëtius Patrius Majorian, in his desperation, tries to appeal to the Senate for one last time, in his last hope to evacuate the women and children out of the City. He offers the last Western Roman Emperor Romulus Augustulus, a chance to flee the City of Rome. However, his attempt is arrogantly ignored by the Senators, as possibility of Rome falling, seems practically inconceivable to the overly confident Senate. With their popular tradition of holding Barbarians in contempt, there is a misconception of false hope and safety for the "Eternal City of Rome". Thus taking away from the actual real danger of destruction that stands in the way of Evacuation.
However the cunning and corrupt Senator Magnus, aware of danger, secures his safety and that of the Senate, by proposing negotiations with Odoacer, following the usual tradition of Senators swearing loyalty to whom ever wins and takes control.
While, at the cost of their own safety, the Senate leaves the People of Rome completely at the Mercy of Barbarians, and the young Caesar Romulus as a Scapegoat Figure for the classic Coup d' état. The young Caesar seems to understand this, as he sees that at this point of time, such a fate is simply unavoidable for his obviously political puppet figure, hence like a Captain of a ship, he kindly explains to young Aëtius, why he can't leave Rome.
Obviously forsaken by the Senate, young General Aëtius now realizes, he is finally left only with the Last of the Roman Patriots, including his Father's old loyal Centurions, which forces him to bring up his own late father Flavius Aëtius, to the very people who plotted his murder 20 years earlier, This cause a moment of truth for Senator Magnus, as he is the possible mastermind of the entire infamous plot against Flavius. The same Senator who due to his opportunistic nature, literally survived 10 different Caesars coming and going during his 25 year long reign in the Senate between Rome in the West, and Constantinople in the East. Through his favoritistic political power through decades, this politically powerful Senator, rose from a regular Roman Senator during the reign of Caesar Valentinian III in 451, to the Council of Rome by 460, and finally all the way to a Praetorian Prefect of Gaul by the appointing of Last Roman Caesar Romulus Augustuilus in 475 A.D.
