There is a film called Alexander coming out. This I did not know. I'm presuming it is about Alexander the Great. The rest of this comment presumes this...
I was worried at first because I got Colin Firth confused with Colin Farrell - I just couldn't picture every middle-aged, middle-class, Englishwoman's dream date as Alexander, the moody, authorative, given to excess, conqueror of nations. Colin Farrell has a better chance of pulling it off - although no-one will beat the guy who "played" him in the Histoty Channel documentary I saw weeks ago. This guy had blond way hair but wide brown eyes that somehow seemed to draw you into them - solusuckers of eyes. Mmmmm - he is Alexander! (Charasmatic yet probably a twat at heart).
Well... since Christopher Nolan is directing a total dream cast, and all of the production shots so far look ace, I'd say that they'd have to work very hard to make a bad film out of this.
