Atia and Antony + looking at each other

nevertravelled:

in the commentary, bruno heller makes mention of the dummies they parade through at the triumph, and at that point atia is looking at the dummies, strapped in chains to a cart - heller says, “cleopatra and antony, her antony” - and then she looks to octavian and keeps her eyes on him for a moment. and they talk about what the characters have given up to get to this point, what they’ve sacrificed, and then atia turns away. she struggled and plotted and murdered to get octavian in that fucking chair and has been waiting for this moment his entire life and he’s finally there and she turns away.
