Memoirs of Hadrian: The Movie

[Marcus F.]

Visconti could have done it; perhaps Scorsese; but not Boorman/Manfredi. Given Boorman's singularly bad taste for music (Carmina Burana in Excalibur), I expect we will see Antinous drowning and will hear the Adagietto from Mahler's Fifth. Music for the masses.

I admit that I enjoy the music of "Carmina Burana", also as it was used in this film. Maybe, I'm a bit biased as most of my ancestors come from the little town, where Carl Orff used to live.

Does anyone here have suggestions for the rest of the casting, like Vibia Sabina, Antinous or others, who could appear in this movie? (maybe I should finally read the book of Marguerite Yourcenar)
