That is, in fact, an interesting point Robert.
When the film, Rome Sweet Rome, (about a US Marine brigade being magically teleported back to 1st Century Rome) is released will we consider it Science Fiction, Fantasy, or Ancient Period Film?
There are also several novels and a couple of films (currently in Development Hell) about the Romans in China. How would we classify them?
Then too there is Thermae Romae where an ancient Roman engineer is magically teleported to modern day Japan. (And then the high jinks really begin.)
Perhaps, and only in the broadest sense, these are all Ancient Period Films as the majority of the action takes place in ancient times.
Excellent point Robert.
