Eagle of the Ninth to be filmed
#6
Quote:As much as I would love to an extra or something, I realy hope they get the equipment, and everything else as correct as possible.
One problem is, of course, that the book itself is not accurate. It is unlikely that a legion marched without auxiliaries (in the battle of Mons Graupius, they even did the main fighting). And it is known that VIIII Hispania was not lost in Caledonia at all (more...). Now I think that a good scenario writer can improve mistakes of the first type; the second one, we must humbly accept, smiling at sweet childhood memories.

I think RAT may do something to prevent mistakes of the first category. We might offer our help one way or another. Several of us have published books, others are employed by a university. If I understand it correctly, at least one of us has worked for some movie productions. If people like these sign the letter, we might be taken seriously, be hired as extras - and all have free tickets for the opening night. :wink: O, if only I could play a citizen of Silchester, or -even better- Marcus' uncle.
