He was a fierce military commander who led huge armies into battle without a single defeat; a magnificent warrior who many thought was a part god – that has been Alexander the Great (Richard Burton), the mythical Greek hero hailed by his own countrymen as “The King of Kings”. Produced in 356 B.C. to a tumultuous world of political unrest, trained by Aristotle (Barry Jones) and picked to lead his people into the grand heritage of his influential father (Fredric March), this glamorous world conqueror climbed above all battle to combine the continents of Europe and Asia to turn into one of them the most renowned rulers of time! Composed, produced and directed by Oscar – winner Robert Rossen and comprising the extraordinary Claire Bloom along with a remarkable cast of thousands, this magnificent picture of one of history’s most intriguing figures is immense amusement and an awesome spectacle.
