What year did you meet him?

@@whatever5994 April 23rd, 2010 during his Into the Wild Tour for 30 Seconds to Mars.

This ks the most beautiful comment ever. I come back for this scene and this comment at least every month 🥰

That guy doesnt age He surely drinks human blood

What is the movie’s name?

Yeah more disgusting lies about friends that were like brothers and were bounded by the sacred bond of friendship in ancient t Greece, so deviates like you can feel good about their abnormality.

Facts

No

@@byzer1 nice argument you decadent barbarian, truth hurts.

Romance between two male cousins is what you needed? God you're a filthy fucking degenerate

I don’t know who you are friend but I feel the same way. Also WangXian forever.🙏🏼❤️

Man it feels so different watching this absolute legendary childhood movie after discovering Jared Leto is actually a child predator:( Rest in peace memories of better times. Truly fantastic time to be alive it was and still is in my memories but never the same anymore🥲

This whole movie was so beautifully made. Love it. I still remember the music Roxane’s dance it brings memories and the music by vangelis

I know right seriously. I feel the same

Mmmm

This is a war mivie not a love story lady,this never happened alexander was straighter than a arrow

@@carlosangulo3035this is what you don’t understand - it wasn’t a war movie by any means, it was a story of a great man who happened to be a great warrior and military commander and yes he undertook the impressive conquest of Asia but it wasn’t a war movie. It was way more than that. And I love how Oliver Stone fleshed him out and how scenes like these showed his dreams, motivations and aspirations no matter if they were historically accurate or not because this is Stone’s perspective and take on Alexander. As for his sexuality, to be honest no one can know for sure about his sexual preferences so I don’t know where you take your “he was straight as an arrow” from. Don’t tell me it’s because he married three women, because that proves and means absolutely nothing (not saying he wasn’t into women just saying that it marriage is no proof of heterosexuality). One thing is sure, dude needed an heir so marriage was a must for him. But in the end, it doesn’t even matter if Alexander or Hephaestion were sexually intimate or just platonic, they were incredibly close and they deeply loved each other. There is not much known about their relationship except that Hephaestion was his closest friend and knew all his secrets. However, Alexander’s reaction after Hephaestion’s death is pretty telling. Apparently his grief was uncontrollable. He had the doctor executed And he threw himself on Hephaestion’s body and cried over him for a day till he was pried away by his companions. Afterwards he spent three days lying on the floor grieving without touching food and not caring for his appearance. In other words, dude had a complete mental breakdown. Eventually he organised a magnificent funeral for Hephaestion that cost around $250,000,000 in nowadays money and paid him countless tributes, declared mourning etc. He never appointed anyone to take Hephaestion’s place as a commander of Companion cavalry and Hephaestion’s image was always carried in front of it. He went even as far as to the oracle of Siwa in Egypt (that previously declared him as a God) if they would permit to worship Hephaestion as God which they wouldn’t but they permit that he would be worshipped as a divine hero. There is a presumption that Alexander did this in order to secure that they would find each other in afterlife (they believed that the common men went to the Underworld ruled by Hades but Divine heroes would go to the Elysian Fields). Interestingly enough, Alexander himself died shortly after receiving this answer from the oracle. I mean judging by his reaction to Hephaestion’s death, he loved him deeply (and they didn’t have to be at all intimate with each other). Aristotle is believed to have described them as “one soul in two bodies” and apparently they thought this way of themselves as well. When the mother of Darius came to beg Alexander for mercy (in the movie there is a scene with his daughter Stateira instead of his mother) and adressed Hephaestion instead, Alexander said that she was not wrong because “this man is too Alexander”. This suggest he considered Hephaestion to be his soul mate or his alter ego. Take whatever you want from this but no matter if they were homosexual, bisexual or straight, they seemed to have the closest bond possible. And Oliver Stone captured this bond and love between them masterfully.

​@@blackmamba6046That was such a heartfelt quasi essay. You said it all brilliantly and beautifully 🥺

​@@carlosangulo3035 it's not war movie, there is an aspect of war yes. It's a historical fiction depicting imperial politics and personal life of Alexander

I think that's what made this scene so painfully beautiful. So much longing and love expressed through words and eyes and body language 🥰

And they wouldn't have reacted the way they did in Greece lol

Broke back Mountain was literally released a year after.

@@mrpontyboi and it was mocked by most people

Alexander literally made out with a guy in this movie tho

exactly

A must -see! You’ll love it!

I love your photo's profile it's Hayley ♡

Apparently its fake lol

Historically they were lovers.

@@Erin-Thor there is still a debate tho

@@zeff8820 - Of course, many still swear Rock Hudson was heterosexual as well.

@@zeff8820….Not really…. Lol

No it is not only from the movie. Jim Morrison was openly inspired by Alexander also for his look and haircut

Lmao shut up

Jim Morrison later became Rush Limbaugh.

This movie is a masterpiece. Beautifully made. I did not find any scenes that were skipped.

@@jdos5643 I mean that the constant back and forth between Alexander as a grown man leading his armies to him as his adolescence were somewhat annoying.

@@tradcathgroyper7411 i didn’t pay attention to that honestly. I thought that the best part was when Alexander tamed Bucephalus as a kid and galloped the fields with that majestic vangelis music. Loved the gardens of Babylon exquisite and beautiful I think how the movie was captured.

Most negative reviews come from the 2004 theatrical release (the homoerotic themes, historical innacuracy, the cast, the acccents etc) The Ultimate Cut version is what we need to watch, because it gives much more context

​@@tradcathgroyper7411 I kinda agree with this. The timeline jumps is indeed a bit annoying, especially for those who watch it the first time.

Never thought of this but I agree.

all ancient greeks uded to believe it was a great honour to worship a man's body first...before they make family....the male body was a blessing

You say there was no word for gay 2000 years ago ? That is a new level mate. Let me tell you a fact, Bible is 2000 years old and it talks about homosexuals, sodom.

"SheElohim yevarach otha Oshit

il magnifique

It is very moving. Imagining what it must have been like then to march in as conqueror of this great desert city of high culture with someone who knows you all too well.

You just can't get enough gay love scenes can you?

xDDD Velvet Goldmine and Brokeback Mountain and Alexander xDD

Amazing...I just can't imagine how you will end up... :/ lol

You do know this was rape right? She never agreed to this. ANd he did this right after killing her husband.

disgusting

No he was mostly gay , he was into women just bcoz he was the king

Woefully blind….. lol

I AGREE

Alexander was gay u don't know anything

Yall have to straight ish men everywhere

Sure, love can be neither romantic nor sexual. However, do keep that same energy for heteronormativity.

@@Moszan kings had so many babies , Alexander's father King Philip was executed by his ex bf and had more male c0ncubin3s . Alexander who had feminine side since his childhood was seen as a threat bcoz future kings were supposed to procreate and spread their genes as much as they could that is why his mother and Philip made him sleep with high class c@ll g1rls when he was literally a kid . Still he had no babies throughout his life only one after his death , there is proof of his relationship with Bagoas who was known for his beauty and Hephastian on the other hand was a tall handsome strong general unlike in movie , and Alexander had very intimate relationship with him , he felt open to explore his feminine side with him and was very open to him . And people still believe he was straight lmfao . His father was a red blooded warrior still he wasn't straight but bi but have to make Alexander straight who was clearly more feminine .

@@Moszan these Christians don't even know that all these events happened before Jesus even came into existence lmao . That why is in BC aka before Christ , woke is not good understand but these people throw and have thrown their own agenda

GimmeBubbleGum he is lol

GimmeBubbleGum no

@@nothingtoospiffy7913 Yes it is.

@@Moonewitch no it's not

Being woke has nothing to do with this.

@@Moszan Supporting gays is woke kid. Get used to that fact. Support for same sex relations is dropping.

All these stupid ppl call everything woke these days, gays have always existed

@@kulio1214 MANY homosexuals & bisexuals are anti-woke. How dare you call anyone else a “kid”, you fruitcake? You’re a closet case, it’s why you’re here projecting.

GOOD you gave that info!!! (Some bitter commentators here need to see that!).

@@mikaelb7735 haha I just love that the haters can't say crap now😭😭😂🙌🏽🙌🏽

SO right you (we) are. Keep well!!@@roshafam3477

This is why Stone's Alexander was a bit too ahead of its time. This was almost the same year Brokeback Mountains left people shock with gay cowboy romance. If this Alexander could've been released today, people wouldn't hate it that much. Just an opinion, some aspects from the Netflix Alexander is incomparable in term of budget with Stone's Alexander. I don't really like the Netflix version's of Macedonian costumes & war scenes.

@@Roadtoinferno yea totally understand that! We are in a new time now so that would explain Netflix choice of costumes etc but yea if this version was released today more people would've loved it

Ik Hephastian and Alexander had wives but Alexander was bisexual he had male concubines , don't push your heteronormative agenda , i think Bagoas was his lover.

...no shade...but good luck to him...

I'd personally prefer to see a film about Achilles and Patroclus instead, but I doubt people would like that one

the best part of love is the love binding two together for eternity.

I believe it is (one night at Babylon)! Edit: a little correction for the name!

The blue eyed one?

They came out of the closet they said. Farrelleto they have a deep love for each other. They were kissing on Pinterest. Both had same fatherly childhood hurts. They need each other. The love is real and genuine❤

It's a weird world we live in today that thinks every man who is emotional is gay and has immense love for his brothers and friends is gay. In Ancient times, men would kiss each others lips, shower naked, exercise naked and had immense brotherly love for one another but married women. Now men suppress their emotions in fear of being called gay for being affectionate and outward with their emotions because society will call you gay for doing so. We have no understanding of true brotherly or sister love anymore like people did in Ancient times

@@ottomanachiever3493 well it came from a lot of factors.. from religion, beliefs to those haters of those who goes to the other side. And men were thought not to be weak and women should be weak... so people have a hard time showing their true emotions. if only people were just free to express themselves without being criticized.

😂😂😂

No, it is in the movie, but i think there is 2 verson of this scene

@@MARScocaine it is for sure, i did that one in the movie, as a skit... I have just never seen this part!! Them speaking so clearly of Patroclus and Achilles really pulls together and insinuates a more romantic and lustful relationship between them (which i am alllllllllll for and truly believe the real alexander and hephaestion had).
