Play4film's point of view:
This film whose setting is ancient Rome was shot in Italy and directed by the expert Ferdinando Baldi. "Duel of the Champions", which is the international translation of the Italian title "Orazi e Curiazi", is the story of the struggle for the Urbe between the Orazi, pro Rome, and the Curiazi, pro Alba Longa. The screenplay is the work of famed Italian cinematic personalities such as Carlo Lizzani, Ennio De Concini, Giuliano Montaldo and Luciano Vincenzoni. There is an international flavour to the cast: side by side with Alan Ladd and Jacques Sernas are Franco Fabrizi and Franca Bettoia.
