      From: jtem01@gmail.com              The two best films weren't technically films but mini series:              I., Claudius              HBO's Rome              HBO's Rome would have been epic, but the script was a       travesty. I mean, I get that they're following the lives of       fictional characters through historical events but they got       pretty much none of those historical events right.              One example (out of countless) that immediately springs       to mind is the death of Brutus... NOT EVEN CLOSE!              If his death was boring then try this: Don't focus on it!       You're a writer. Write something else. Right something       that you think is interesting instead of misrepresenting       history.                                                 -- --              https://jtem.tumblr.com/post/634194061517045760                                                 -- --              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
