Your own historical pic


Every nation have their history, and most of them are made movies. Good Bye Lenin and Downfall for Germans, Lincoln, JFK and many more for the U.S, Munich for the Israel, and for me our own Gandhi. If you were a director, what incident from your country will become a movie...

That's hard to answer. But I can list several Swedish historical novels, which would make good movies.

Intelligence and purity.

That would be informative.... Thanks in advance...

On the darker side, a movie based on the book The Assassination of Robert F. Kennedy by William Turner and Jonn Christian.

On the lighter side, a biopic of Jimmy Stewart.

I would like to do a movie about the Dark Ages in middle Europe after the downfall of the Roman empire. Maybe about Brunhild, the merovingian queen who witnessed and took part in the downfall of nearly three generations of the royal family in the sixth century and was brought down, brutally put to death by Chlotar II., one of the few survivors of these brother wars.

A well made film about Budicca. I think it would be very interesting to see her tragic attempt at freedom from Roman rule.

Boudicca, widow of Prasutagus, now became queen of the Iceni. After she and her two daughters were subjected to grave humiliations by the Romans, she led a revolt of the Iceni and several other tribes which lasted for several months in 60-61. The Boudiccan forces burned and destoyed the three major towns of Londinium (London), Verulamium (St. Albans), and Camulodunum (Colchester), killing many thousands of citizens.

The revolt was eventually suppressed in AD 61 by the Roman military governor, Suetonius Paullinus.
