Clips of Cristina Raines in Quo Vadis

The following are two clips of Cristina Raines in the 1985 miniseries Quo Vadis? in which she portrayed Poppaea, the wife of Roman Emperor Nero (played wonderfully by Klaus Maria Brandauer).


The first clip is a short one and it shows Cristina Raines taking part in a strange ritual invloving symbols drawn on hands:

The second clip shows Poppaea (Cristina Raines) and Nero (Klaus Maria Brandauer) have a serious talk following the death of her son from her first marriage. You'll most likely immediately notice that Cristina Raines' real voice is not used here. As with many of the characters in this internationally cast miniseries, the voices for the English language version were dubbed.
