Leave it to Victor Davis Hanson to reveal that the emperor has no cloths (Alexander, as we all know Stone is worthless). He is brilliant, thank you for a link to this article.

I'll just stick with the old Richard Burton version of Alexander.

I remember Ben Hur (1961) had an homosexual sub-plot between Tony Curtis and Lawrence Oliviers characters.

What really amazes me about all this is that those Greek relationships were clearly unequal, likely abusive, possibly coerced, and were basically older men using their status to take advantage of boys -- yet many modern gays seem to look at all of this an interpret it as a healthy and accepted form of homosexuality. Uh, no. It's abuse and would be abuse if those those older men were treating young women like that (and I'm sure that happened, too).

I get the feeling "Alexander" is going to become a midnight-showing cult-classic in the Village.

What do they call those short leather skirts?
