This season the fascist leader Mussolini seizes power in Italy in what is carefully choreographed to be a show of force, and he sets about quickly constructing a national myth based on the Roman Empire. Across the Mediterranean, archaeological findings in Egypt's Valley of Kings discover a tomb which will start up an Egyptology frenzy in both the academic and cultural worlds. In film, new all time high budgets and experiments with 3D technology seem to create a world of cinema which much more closely resembles the IMAX theatres of the 21st century.
