Metamorphoses made him a superstar but then came scandal and exile. Unique among ancient poets, Ovid left us an autobiography, full of riveting intimacy, as well as ironical and slippery self-justification. Using Ovid's own words, brought to life by actor Simon Russell Beale, the film tells the story of the poet's fame, and his fateful falling out with the most powerful man in the world, the Roman emperor Augustus. ==See Also== {{http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09g0l2q|BBC Site Part 1}}\\ {{http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09g0l2s|BBC Site Part 2}}\\ ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, \\ ,,Related Documentary,,\\ {{ youtube>Owz1LxJ3t1M }} \\ {{tag>HD History 1St_Cent.
