Director's Commentary
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2005 4:18 pm
Hello,
Just got the DVD of Alexander and selected the director's commentary and listened to the first few mins.Robin Lane Fox assists Stone through the more complicated bits and gives the commentary a bit of credibility.
Will keep you posted if I learn anything new.
By the way, the eagle shots before the battle at Gaugamela was inspired by Zeus- the symbol of Zeus the eagle(amongst other symbols) and the aerial shots are quite good. Darius apparently was a young actor from Israel that Stone spotted.Best wishes,
Dean.
