Quo Vadis?
54Watch it awake.
See the 1913 Christians under Nero, and don't treat the arena as the point.
The review
Nero, the burning of Rome, and Christians in the arena. Enrico Guazzoni directed it in Italy in 1913. It was a sensation in Europe before Birth. It is not an American ledger and not a later Hollywood film, so I won't invent a gross or swap in a remake. A house can watch it. The faith is the point they were selling.
The scale taught other directors what a crowd would pay to see. That lesson is about size and money. I won't linger on the arena. If the faith is the point, the suffering is not a tour. We can watch the belief and leave the pain alone.

The glance
Industry and Household and Temperance are the thin ones.
Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Hamilton
66 instead of 54
Hamilton is still a history film, and it scores 66 instead of 54. What you gain is industry: Work is the man's whole claim: he writes his way out.
