Just read in the paper that they are going to remove all the homo-sexual parts from the film and replace them with more nude scenes of Rosario Dawson.

Why do hollywood change so many things to end up with a movie that they like and ingnore historical facts.
Dont get me wrong i think she is the sexiest woman in films at the moment but it still does not make it right.

It`s still a sin to be a homosexual in middle America. Also like ALL Stone movies, there`s very little truth to back up his homosexual theory.

It is not exactly an Oliver Stone theory, the thought has been around for yonks.
But, and it is a big but, our view of homosexuality is entirely different than theirs. They didn`t have that word, it was incomprehensible. It was not something they were, it was something they did, but still no gay word for it.
Interesting article on Alexander and the ancient Macedonian view on homosexuality here, if interested.
Ridiculous to cut any mention of it in the film. Back to the Richard Burton version.
