These are supposed to be historically accurate movies. At least make a god damned attempt at an accent. They don't care, so I don't either. Imagine if Daniel Day Lewis just talks in his normal accent in There Will Be Blood.Ello Sailor wrote:As I said, weird hangups.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Actually that's The National Anthem by Radiohead. Not much of a pop song really. Definitely a weird cover choice though.bada wrote:I refuse to watch a movie that has a mournful rendition of some old pop song in the trailer. Which means I can never watch a movie again.

nothing i read or heard about this movie suggests it's supposed to be an abstract interpretation loosely based on historical eventsNapoleon is an upcoming epic historical drama film directed and produced by Ridley Scott and written by David Scarpa. It is based on the true story of Napoleon Bonaparte, primarily depicting the French leader's rise to power as well as his relationship with Empress Joséphine.
