Pic from movie "Centurion", what say the experts?

[P. Clodius Secundus]

...but even in movies set during warmer months, Hollywood and others have not only a phobia about showing manly wrists, but also manly legs!

I think part of the problem may be that actors most modern actors, who spend their time in the gym or acting class when they're not waiting tables between gigs, never develop the classic working-class "Popeye" forearms that the repetitive stress of swinging a hammer, dolabra, or gladius will cause. As to the legs...if you're going to reenact as a Roman you'd better have the legs for it or you'll wind up looking like a "dustbin on skittles" :wink:
Overall the armor isn't as bad as we've come to expect. Matt's right, pteruges over the hamata but under the doubling?? Is it me or is the apron a bit long for the era as well?
