from what I understand of the woman in history she was very "crafty" and not one to turn your back on... I believe she worship Dionysus
Alexanders mother & father were constantly at odds with each other... no wonder they raised a man who believed himself to be a god...
it will be interesting to see her portray what seems to be a venomous Queen... |

Angelina is a good actress and a very interesting person. Her inner passion and her attitude to life was perfect for the role. |

As Olympias she got beautiful, amazing eyes - green I think? but her real color is blue. Why they changed it? |

Haven't noticed this, but if true, it might be because green eyes are more common (than blue) over here. |

They say that Olympias had a striking beauty with green eyes and red hair. |

They portrayed her in a rather witchy way, and green eyes are the marks for a witch, aren't they?

I don't know about witches but Olympias is known to have been red haired with green eyes, yes. ...well I guess the hairstylist of the movie was not that much of a success , or he/she wanted to make his/her statement through it...maybe...  |

I won´t say witchy, she look great! powerful and beautiful. I thought it was perfect except for the accent. |

me too! But then again, maybe they wanted that because they wanted to show the differences of their accents (cause the accents were different). |

I think that she didn't do such a good job as i hoped she would as Olympias. She over-did the role. She gave it a decent attempt and go. But wasnt convincing at all to me. |

What do you mean she overdid it ? I think she was the Olympias that Oliver Stone wanted. She simply did what she was asked to. For me she was very good. If they had made her red-haired and green-eyed ( like the true Olympias ) she would be perfect  |

No.. I really think that she overdid the role.. i mean i hated that accent! she could've talked abit more normal i mean i've read all the accounts of Olympias i know how her character was like i just dont think she did a good job as she could have done as Olypmias.Would prefer to see how others would have done in that role, sorry to offend any 'fans' out there. |
