GREEK LAWYERS MAY SUE OVER ALEXANDER'S GAY SCENES
Monday, November 22 2004

A group of Greek lawyers, maintaining that no historical document mentions that Alexander the Great ever engaged in homosexual acts, has threatened to sue director Oliver Stone and Warner Bros. unless the title credits mention that the film is fiction. "We are not saying that we are against gays," Yannis Varnakos, one of the lawyers, told Britain's Guardian newspaper. "But we are saying that the production company should make it clear that the film is pure fiction and not a true depiction of the life of Alexander." In the film, Alexander, portrayed by Colin Farrell, is depicted as having lovers of both sexes.
