Ursus Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Hypatia was a female intellectual from Roman Egypt in late antiquity. She was murdered by Christian monks. Not sure how historic the movie will be, but it looks good. The shots of Alexandria are breath taking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurelia Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Rachel Weisz seems to have a thing for Egyptian-themed movies although I can't say I was really impressed with "The Mummy". Hoping this one will be more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosmo Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Were the accent will be: feminism or anticlericalism? This movie sounds interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursus Posted April 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Were the accent will be: feminism or anticlericalism? The two are not mutually exclusive in this context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Paulinus Maximus Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 The trailer looks good but then again don't they always?? We'll just have to wait and see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylla Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Prima facie, the best idea I have heard for any film on classical times for years. I can't imagine how can this film avoid being either feminist or anticlerical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
