Trivia: In the movie, a soldier called Petronius unsuccessfully tries to murder the emperor Valentinian. The name "Petronius" was probably chosen because in reality the emperor was eventually killed by a senator called Petronius.

1 trivia entry for show generally
Directed by: Dick Lowry
Starring: Gerard Butler, Powers Boothe, Tommy Flanagan, Steven Berkoff, Simmone Mackinnon, Andrew Pleavin, Pauline Lynch, Reg Rogers
Other mistake: In the party/orgy scene where Aetius is showing off Rome to Attila, one can see a woman with her back to us reveal herself to a man and woman. Despite her veil, one can see her thong underwear. This type of underwear is a 20th century innovation.
Attila the Hun: Trickery and deceit. That is the way of the Romans, not of the Huns.
Flavius Aetius: Yes, but which way rules the world?
