Hollywood and the Dark Ages

« on: February 08, 2010, 10:59:19 AM »

Mel Gibson is doing a movie on the Vikings, which will feature the Anglo Saxons: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/andrewbrown/2010/jan/20/melgibson-sweden

Given his record on historical 'accuracy', the only thing I'm looking forward to is hearing Old Norse and Old English for a complete film. That doesn't happen every day. Or every half-century for that matter...

Interesting!! Not sure I was to see anyone skinned, though.

Don't be such a baby.

Meanwhile a thane of the king's household, a carrier of tales, a traditional singer deeply schooled in the lore of the past, linked a new theme to a strict metre.
(Beowulf, ll. 867-870, Heaney trans.)
