Storyline

The citizens of Rome are hungry. Coriolanus, the hero of Rome, a great soldier and a man of inflexible self-belief despises the people. His extreme views ignite a mass riot. Rome is bloody. Manipulated and out-maneuvered by politicians and even his own mother Volumnia, Coriolanus is banished from Rome. He offers his life or his services to his sworn enemy Tullus Aufidius.

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: During Senate scene, while General Cominius praises Coriolanus, in close up of Menenius on his right hand side a coat-of-arms of Republic of Serbia (doubleheaded eagle with crown) can be seen. This is because Senate scenes are filmed in Serbian parliament building. See more »

Quotes

Caius Martius Coriolanus: I'll fight with none but thee, for I do hate thee.
