…not really.
But I saw that spoof movie in my 10th-grade drama class and at the time, I didn’t think I would actully get to visit the ruins of the place the movie was based on. The movie made me a laugh so when I found out that the Forum tour, along with the Colosseum and Palatine ruins was a part of our schedule, I was excited. As we walked through, I constantly tried to imagine what the marketplace was like back in the day; flashbacks of the movie scenes looped in my mind. Now I’ll have to visit my high school when I get home to tell Ms. Willoughby that something I learned in her class, even if tiny and purely entertaining, has stuck with me.
Ciao,
Ang.
