An aging Claudius looks back at the bizarre and treacherous times through which he's lived and sets them down in a secret history that is not to be read until after his death. The distinguished cast of I, Claudius includes John Hurt as Caligula, Brian Blessed as Augustus, Sian Phillips as Livia, Margaret Tyzack as Antonia, and Patrick Stewart as Sejanus. The home-video release also includes the documentary The Epic That Never Was, which looks at producer Alexander Korda ill-starred attempt to film Graves' novel in the mid-1930s. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide.</p> Video Detective http://video.tvguide.com/ID/818868?rss=object Mon, 17 Mar 2008 05:04:33 -0400 <p><a href="http://video.tvguide.com/ID/818868?rss=object"><img align="left" border="0" src="http://videodetective.com/photos/076/000319_32.jpg" width="60" height="45" alt="I, Claudius" style="margin:0 5px 5px" /></a>This 13-episode miniseries was adapted from the book by Robert Graves, which chronicles the tumultuous life and times of Claudius (Derek Jacobi), who despite a deformed leg and a speech impediment through prophecy becomes the Roman Empire.

On the forest moon of Endor, a little girl (Aubree Miller) is protected by the Ewoks -- and by human hermit Noa (Wilfred Brimley) -- against such enemies as space-witch Charal (Sian Phillips). Like all previous chapters in the Ewok saga, The Battle for Endor was executive-produced by George Lucas. And, like Ewok Adventure, the film copped an Emmy nomination. First telecast November 24, 1985, Ewoks: The Battle for Endor was preceded two months earlier by the animated Saturday-morning series The Ewoks, which later evolved into The Ewoks and Star Wars Droids Adventure Hour. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide.</p> Video Detective http://video.tvguide.com/ID/816366?rss=object Mon, 17 Mar 2008 03:26:58 -0400 <p><a href="http://video.tvguide.com/ID/816366?rss=object"><img align="left" border="0" src="http://videodetective.com/photos/027/001155_3.jpg" width="60" height="45" alt="Ewoks: The Battle For Endor" style="margin:0 5px 5px" /></a>This expensively wrought TV movie was the sequel to the 1984 offering Ewok Adventure, which in turn was inspired by those furry little extraterrestrials introduced in the 1983 theatrical feature Return of the Jedi.
