I remember some of the sets on "Alexander" were extraordinary and it would just take your breath away.
There is absolutely no Wuxia or martial arts in 'Red Cliff.' I want all the action to look realistic.
Lawrence of Arabia is the ultimate movie, deeply cinematic.
'Henry V' is a great deal more than almost any other hell-bent-for-armor movie that you've seen.
One of my great all-time loves in cinema, and I've seen it three times, is Bondarchuk's 'War and Peace.' Not a lot of people may have seen that film. It was made during the Soviet era.
'Rudhramadevi' is a film which falls into a very new genre. It is a historic and biographic genre movie. It should be called a bio epic. I am curious to see how the audiences accept the film.
'300' is a bit cheesy but enjoyable.
I had two good films: 'ABCD2' and 'Bajirao Mastani.'
Whether you're a history buff or a fantasy fan, Druon's epic will keep you turning pages. This was the original game of thrones. If you like 'A Song of Ice and Fire', you will love 'The Accursed Kings'.
I actually do think the history is so epic that it actually kind of writes itself.
I have aspirations of making a big, historical epic. I don't know if I'll ever get the money to do it.
I love historical movies. I want to make a violent medieval epic.
'Aurangzeb' for me is a right film, as there is action and drama.
If you want to do 'Sword & Sandals' movies, people think that means it equals 'epic.'
As you know, I describe Shirat ha-Yam as part of an epic story that has qualities of history and which also has qualities of the mythological, of an epic.
'Rob Roy' was a great adaptation. It was a lot better than 'Braveheart.'
In 1969, at the age of 19, I was lucky enough to work with George C. Scott in the definitive portrayal of his career over a period of many months and several countries on the definitive film version of Patton's WWII career.
'Temeraire' is a terrific meld of two genres that I particularly love - fantasy and historical epic.
