History is filled with incredible events brought about by incredible, but real, human beings. It's a waste of resources to bend a truly earth shaking event into a gay soap opera. Failure of this film is a credit to Americans sensiblities. I hope someday someone sees fit to tell the real story. Maybe Mel Gibson.
I saw a documentary on the Discovery channel a couple of weeks ago. It was EXCELLENT. It explained how how came up with the new battle tactics that helped him conquer the know world.
