I had to watch Alexander again. For the second time, I was invited to speak some 30 minutes before and to answer questions after the movie. I have to do it again next month.
I hate the silly language - real soldiers do not address each other as "noble Craterus", but shout obscenities. There is a lot of violence in this movie and there are two rape scenes, but no one even dares to say "fuck".
I hate the stupid music. If only the music had been absent from the battle scenes. Vangelis' sound track ranks high in any top five musical crimes perpetuated in the last decade.
I hate Oliver Stone.
I hate Robin Lane Fox.
I hate the movie.
