Help identifying documentary on constantine
#1
Not sure if this is the right place for this, but can anyone help identify the following video clip or where to get the full program? It appears ti show the LRA in "somewhat accurate" gear.

Yep, that's the one.

Available on DVD here: Amazon

Or you could just watch it on Youtube Here if you prefer...

There are some views about the series as a whole in this thread, meanwhile.

The 'Constantine' episode is fun to watch, but fairly cartoonish on the history side - I really didn't like the actor portraying Constantine himself, as he didn't look anything like the man and generally came over as a frothing maniac. Maxentius is shown as a fat evil buffoon, of course. There's lots of throaty gargly yelling about ROME. The military costuming is interesting though - somebody's gone to the effort of trying to get a 'late Roman' look with the helmets and armour, but it still isn't right, which seems perverse - why go to the trouble of producing what looks like hundreds of helmets if they're only semi-accurate? It wouldn't have been at all difficult to do it properly, surely. Still, we must be thankful for small mercies I suppose...
