God? people?

After reading it, I looked through the comments and found out that there are two versions of this film, and the one I watched was the director's extended version, which lasted three and a half hours. I feel that the story is very procrastinated... All kinds of wonderful pictures have been reduced to footnotes of historical stories. I'm a little curious what the cinema version is like?
All that is known about Alexander the Great is his legendary life, military talent, and the super empire he built. But the film did not show his talents in military, political, and governing. Rather, he emphasized that he was a melancholy, lifelong guilt-ridden, slightly morbid mortal. Perhaps as a mortal close to a god, two thousand years later, he is now a god. So, when I was making a movie, I couldn't help but want to show the side of others... What else should I say? Continue to perfect a fairy tale? Digression, it seems that the gods created by history like to knock down the altar and show their human side... Meiyue, dig out the true side of human nature... I wonder if this is the best choice?

    There are so many beautiful men, I can't control myself anymore, especially the young master, Xiao Qiao! ! ! ! !

Alexander quotes

  • Aristotle: The East has a way of swallowing men and their dreams, but still to think it's these myths that lead us toward the greatest glory... Why is it wrong to act on them? I can only warn you, not teach you. Beware of what you dream - for the gods have a way of punishing such pride.

  • Old Ptolemy: All greatness comes from loss.
