This episode is for sure inspired from actual events that actually happened. During the ancient Greece, a scientist named Archimedes receives the task to deliver an important crown of pure gold. This simple topic describing a true story is told as an intrigue scheme, the same we found in many sword and sandals films from the Hollywood studios as well as the Cinecitta ones, the Italian features. It's a disguised documentary which is built and, I repeat, told as a movie picture. Don't expect any action sequences but an indoor atmosphere of intrigue and talking. Not bad, if you want to learn some true historical facts through a pure entertainment. I have never heard of the director, nor the actors. Good suspense although. A very interesting story. Watch it to the end, you won't regret it.
