When I heard who the Director was, and who was starring as Alexander, I decided I wouldn't see this movie. When I heard that Angelina Jolie was co-starring, I thought I could hold my nose and go.
Since this was probably a typical, trashy Hollywood movie, I was certain to see Angelina Jolie and Colin Ferrell do the dirty deed. Then I found out Angelina plays Colin's mom. I am back to not seeing this flick.
Tonight I watched Tomb Raider on satelite, again, even though I have it, on DVD.
I am a fan of I, Claudius. I've seen the series 3-4 times. Episode 5, "Poison Is Queen," is my favorite. I read the books too.
