I wish filmmakers and scriptwriters would stop insulting women by desecrating literature which women like and giving a nod to them as if all women seek is to be warrior queens or to be masculine. As if this is their power fantasy that they want to live up to and they can't relate to women that aren't this or something.
@sim Cleopatra, not even that hot, peak femininity
@skells How come?
@skells Interesting. I suppose I should look closer at her example. Especially since she managed to woo some powerful men like this.
@sim somewhat dubious historical accuracy but the screen above is from BBCs Rome which is very enjoyable, paints the various strata of Roman society and their interaction very nicely and the relationship between Caesar and Brutus is especially well done
@skells Yeah. An interesting scene here.
