slow, adrenaline-filled and most importantly conscious demise. In popular culture The phrase "Et tu, Brute?" which was used by William Shakespeare in his famous play Julius Caesar as part of Caesar's death scene has become synonymous with betrayal in modern times due to the play's popularity and influence; this has led to the popular belief that the words were Caesar's last words. Even in the play itself the words are not Caesar's last, as he exclaims "Then fall, Caesar" afterwards before he finally dies. Despite this the words have become popularly used as his last words in media which adapts Caesar's life or that period in time. There have been a few notable exceptions to this, such as the video game Assassin's Creed: Origins which in English uses the words "You too, my child?", taken from the Greek "Kaì sú, téknon", while the French dub of the game, instead of simply translating it to French, decided to use the continental Latin translation "Tu quoque mi fili?" (You too, my son?). In the 1964 British comedy film Carry On Cleo, before being assassinated Caesar declares "Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in for me." In 2007, the line was voted the best one-liner in a Sky Movies poll of 1,000 film fans.
