Julius Caesar Part 2

The second and last part of our look at the case of Julius Caesar, the Roman dictator killed in 44 BC. We watch as Caesar, defying ill omens, enters the Senate House to be killed in a frenzy of knife blows. Though it looks like a deal might be struck between his supporters and his assassins, the situation rapidly changes. In the civil war that follows, the fate of the Republic hangs in the balance.
