- Old Ptolemy character on Alexander:
Our world is gone now. Smashed by the wars. Now I am the keeper of his body, embalmed here in the Egyptian ways. I followed him as Pharaoh, and have now ruled 40 years. I am the victor. But what does it all mean when there is not one left to remember - the great cavalry charge at Gaugamela, or the mountains of the Hindu Kush when we crossed a 100,000-man army into India? He was a god, Cadmos. Or as close as anything I've ever seen.
How can I tell you what it was like to be young; to dream big dreams? And to believe when Alexander looked you in the eye you could do anything. In his presence, by the light of Apollo, we were better than ourselves.
I've known many great men in my life, but only one colossus. And only now in old do I understand who this force of nature really was. Or do I
I've lived... I've lived long life, Cadmos, but the glory and the memory of men will always belong to the ones who follow their great visions. The greatest of these is the one they now call Megas Alexandros. The greatest of them all.
Such an underrated and misunderstood film. People wanted another Troy, but this is so much deeper.
Amen
100 100 100 100 fucking percent true
I hv always liked it much much much more than troy
While I agree to an extent as I feel the movie has some redeeming qualities I think there are huge mistakes as well. One, the focus of the movie... there should have been more battle scenes and less melo-drama and relationship stuff. I know this sounds kind of "brash" but its' a movie about the greatest conqueror ever and the opening Battle of Gaugamela is so well done it's just a shame.
I've known many great man ..but one colossus..Megas alexandros ..
"Nay, I do not die heirless. I have the most beautiful daughters, whom no man has yet known."
"Who are they?"
"My victories."
That was some of Epaminondas' final words meaning his victories over the Spartans at Leuctra and Mantineia.
"When alexander looked you in the eye, you could do anything" - I've read so much about him, and will always love him from the bottom of my heart. He was great, a dreamer, who never gave up.
From the three hundred who climbed the Sogdiani rock that dark night about 30 felt...nowone skreamed or something to not betrayed the others....thats love for Alexandros and for their purpose
Thank God for Alexander! Super-man of the ancient world.
Alexander also had entire cities pillaged, raped, and enslaved. Innocents. No man is perfect, not even Alexander. Don't be fooled.
or just a narccisist
@@JohnJohnson-hu3um A narcissist who did what no man could then dream of? That's why we put “the great” next to his name.
He achieved something at 33 years, that we cannot in 100 lifetimes.
Well you can't give him all the credit. He was given a massive army and a crown by his father Philip. Philip is the one who achieved something out of nothing.
Kemetnu A Sun of Ra what about my ancestors? God punished your ancestors 10x for the same things they enslave my ancestors for many years so it's ironic isn't it?
@@ThePanosassasin Alexanser Illirian campain porves that you are wrong, Philip's army was already ready. Alexander was awesome but he stood on the shoulders of his father.
Yeah, they followed Alexander's greatness, not the memory of his father.
@@standforchange08 Shut the hell up.
I find it pretty impressive that Ptolemy I Soter of Egypt lived to the age of 84.
Considering the average age of people when they died in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC, yes, this was impressive.
Ya our school has an orientation and I play Ptolemy the first
@@noahguerrero1966 I think that when Ptolemy was 84 he was the last one survived to remeber Alexander's campaigns!
Look up Ramses II. lived in the 13th century BC, lived to the age of 91!
91!
must be something in that ancient Nile water man. XD
@@willtherealgeorgemichaelpl5879 can't tell if you're serious because of the use of "Jewish revisionist lie"
There was only a few giants who i would follow into battle untill the end and king Alexander was the greatest of them all, a real colossus in human history and its the reason why we know him today as Alexander The Great, overconquering his fear and freedom was his faith.
peter dekker he free himself from materialism and hedonism...
This is genuinely so inspiring, Alexander is my hero
Glory for Macedonia!!!!
My hero as well! Has been an inspiration to me since I was in the 7th grade!!! I'm 25 now and still follow his ways , truly a fascinating hero! :)
bruce lee why? He didn't build civilizations, he destroyed civilizations.👁
@@standforchange08 Keep an open mind and look at the bigger picture. You must destroy in order to recreate. There is good that comes from destruction. Bringing the different cultures together, that was the vision of Alexander of Macedon. No different from what the Spanish & English pioneers did to the Native Americans. Good and Evil are on the same coin. Keep learning! 🎒📚📖
My hero to
One sentence really hit me well when he says memory and glory of men always belongs to one's who always follow their great visions
Amen 🙏😔
This is such an inspiring speech !!! When Ptolemy says what it was like to dream big dreams and when you look Alexander the eye you could do anything anything what a powerfully quote
We all have the spirit of Alexander within us may we be like Alexander this way
The voice of Sir Anthony Hopkins is awesome. Greatest movie of all time. Watched so many times.
I don't understand why the critics were so harsh on this movie.....to me this movie is a masterpiece
@@christianvazquez3219 I agree completely
"He was a God Cadmos....or as near to one I've ever seen"
This is really fucking beautiful
Dan S the man who infiltrated Egypt and took over?
Egypt accepted him as ruler without a fight and made him into a god.
WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH@@MisterW-24
For me a super great film. A Real epic historical movie on the Real life of Alexander. An inspiring king who changed the world. It's a hero for me. The best of the world. ALexander met the horse bucephal when he was young and came back to Babylone and stopped the wars when Bucephal died in India. It's so incredible, one horse for so Many wars. I am a rider and i think Bucephal and Alexander was connected. All the people have to know the story of Alexander
My favorite war time hero also they chose Colin Farrell perfect 👍 person to play Alexander
'I never believed in his dream, none of us did. That's the truth of his life. The dreamers exhaust us. They must die before they kill us with their blasted dreams.'
- Ptolemy
A fundamental truth of history. Humanity will always advance, but the great leaps of history in warfare, technology, society and philosophy are driven by great men with impossible dreams. Looking back with the benefit of hindsight we can see these great men were right in their own areas to one extent or another. But when they lived and breathed their dreams consumed those around them, like a star drawing planetary bodies with it's gravity to burn in its fiery mass.
Alexander the Great is unlike any who came before him and after since. Greater Empires have been born, better societies and armies have been created, but never were they a product of a single man and his vision, but generations of soldiers and statesmen.
That is what makes him Alexander the Great and perhaps one of the few people in history deserving of the title.
Today the "modern" Alexander is a visionary CEO rather than a general
This is awesome. Keeping this to a playlist. Subscribed. Thank you for posting
hiee
ok
this is one of my favorite Movie Film
Alexander from Egypt
I watched this in the move theater and loved it.it felt like i got to see snap shots of a time and man long gone like i was lucky to see history.
Good morning to Greeks Macedonians, good morning to all the world from Thessaloniki the land of Aristotelis and Alexander.
Well my friend, Alexander was from Pella and Aristotle from Stagyra-Chalkidiki not Thessaloniki. Thessaloniki does not exist Back then.
great video man. one of my favourite movies
El gran alejandro magno.
Magnífico.
Sus batallas son la inspiración para generaciones
El máximo conquistador del mundo.
It would have been amazing to see Babylon in that period
Megas Alexandros! ΜΕΓΑΣ ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΣ
The boy who surpassed them all
Stone should have done this--superb thank you!
There's a reason why he was titled as "the great".
,I m going to add this amazing video to my channel I hope you don't mind this is one of the most underrated videos I have ever seen
Sure no problem
Alexander will always live in my heart, while i breathe he will live on this earth
Same
Same here
The same!
My Boss please please come back😭😭😭😭
Take the world
Please please One minutes silent and close the eyes💕💕💕
For your Boss Alexander Alexander Alexander Alexander Alexander our Boss your team is here my Boss 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Alexander the great 🌍🌍 take the world my Boss 💕💕
If a man in his position as king could look you in the eye and anything seemed possible anything that more than talent its a great gift i think.such an amazing general.
Alexander believed
Failure is failure!!
But failure is the power of man's successful !!
The world wasn’t ready for him yet, that’s the truth.
I can’t believe Stone recut the final line to just say “The Greatest of them all”, I know the original line was a bit hokey, but it fit the moment
god I love that horse!
He was awesome and with Alexander throughout most of the conquest.
@@taroman7100 When he dances in-front of that elephant; my heart skipped a beat. This entire movie goes down well with red wine and radioheads pyramid song on repeat
alexander is my hero
Suraj Singh Jamwal ,alexander is my ass
@@pampanabhanuteja5145 idiot man. Respect this great man. You are nothing in this earth.
@@razjacob5323 whom I should respect..!
Anthony Hopkins will constantly be the best thing about this film besides the visuals...
I don’t care about the visuals but the music is probably the best OST ever.
British museum HELLENISTIC GREECE....Alexander the great went as far as pakistan and spread the greek language amazing.....
I cant help others, I am unable to meet others successes, I can not impress my family and mother, take from me what you can. Nothing will come from nothing.
Open your eyes and SEE that behind your sadness, there is POWER. POWER THAT THE GREATEST POSSESSED. It's time for You, to use it. OPEN YOUR EYES, and live.
It's because you help other that you are failing. Alexander did more he strive to always become better and others were shown only glimpses of his light. But he did not look back,leading by example he was made the hardest choices but as a free man. His grace was not for looking back to help, but grace fully move forward so that all of those behind you can enjoy the greatness left by your grace.
You help others by helping yourself. Lead by example. I hope you're in a better place, two years later, stranger.
Top man.

1:30 when the greeks rules the mountais of Hindu Kush, those macedonian soldiers wearing the OPLON (hoplite) shields, amazing scene. There were findings even in Tarin Basin (China) of ethnic greek soldiers from Bactrian Kingdom
Cool but I prefer the afro romans and greeks

LIKE MOST. OF FILM.
Biz her zaman çokk severiz😊
I wish more historical movies would do this. no presentism, no revisionism. Just a celebration of a historical figure through the lenses of that time period. It's more historically immersive. It gets you into the 'headspace' of that time period which in my opinion, is one of the most effective ways to begin learning about a historical setting
You can't tell me if Alexander lived a full life he wouldn't have been first to lead an empire from the Mediterranean to the Pacific.
They are saying that they found his tomb some where in what is now Jordan. They found Cleopatra in the same area as well.
Not true at all.
Please please for one minute silence and close the eyes for our Boss Alexander Alexander Alexander Alexander Alexander Alexander the great your army is here
My Boss 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 please let come back take the world 🌎🌎
The Worlds needs you myyyyyy bossss😭😭😭😭😭😭 come back 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Alexander was the very 1st Pop Icon.
Kindly sir Donn't take it heart if I said something wrong.
Do I have your permission to use some of this video in my fan made film trailer 'Ptolemy'? Im trying to find scenes of Elliot Cowan and Anthony Hopkins in historical movies/shows to to make a trailer based on Ptolemy after Alexander's death and the wars of the Diadochi.

Alexander the Great or Μέγας Αλέξανδρος. The greatest Greek (Hellinas is the better translation because Romans and Ottomans called us that way) ever walked on Earth... What a leader?! Always at the front line, yet never severely injured... Luck or something else?!...
He was severely injured. And it is claimed that we was hit by every single form of weapon and ballistic weapon during his campaigns!
His ribs were punctured by an arrow from short range as he was at the walls in the end of indian campaign, that was the closest he was ever to death before babylon.
@@SpartanLeonidas1821 i meant fatal injured. Ευχαριστώ για την απάντηση όμως.
Allah be with us, p.s. no matter what anyone says think positive also when things crumble around you friends loved ones die fight till the end, because in the end all that matters is what you done
Alexander, alexander, alexander, alexander..
He is bleeding, and no one feels him ...
He's bleeding front inside ...
They think that he's making it to himself..
He's bleeding day and night .
They are all happy sleeping with their wives and kids but he's carrying all this for them and their children...
He's bleeding silently, he's bleeding to let is survive
I wonder who would win in a fight Alexander or Achilles if they challenged each other?😂

I NOW WANT ONLY IN THIS,uncle type persons.
apollo gave him all the glory
Definitely Alexander was a great warrior...but he was almost defeated at India. And he did not advanced further into India after Indus river when he knew about the massive army of maurya Dynasty and Magadh empire... Specially the war elephants.
No, Alexander never was defeated.
Evert Alonso ...I said almost defeated. He fought with porus at the Indian border.. porus was defeated but it costed Alexander too. That time Magadh empire was most powerful Kingdom in India whose military and economy was far far more greater than Alexander. Thats why he decided to retreat from Indus river back but died on the way due to some desease and weakness.
@@_caspian_4474 dude, where did you learn that shit from? He was not even "almost defeated". His soldiers didn't want to proceed. He wanted to go to Arabia next, but couldn't because he fell sick.
@@_caspian_4474 And I know that there will be some jingoist Indians talking about Porus,
seriously? I mean SERIOUSLY?
Alexander conquered half the world’s people and gdp
Nanda Empire was just a bunch of tribes bruh
@@arjungoli6434 😂😂 I can expect no more facts from you as most think Hollywood movies are real... You have no idea about the Magadh empire of that time😂 full of over glorifying shiits results in knowledge of people like you

How can I tell you what it’s like ?

Big dreams ! To believe

That you could do anything.
ANYTHING !

What does a Bulgarian slav have to do with a Greek king? Stop smoking crack cocaine and make your own heros. Dont steal others people's history!!!!!!!!!!
Boki LOLLLLLL 😂
Beautiful ❤
Shouldn’t you idolise a Bulgarian hero instead?
ONLY ALEXANDER THE GREATERS,NAME.
ptolomy I also called (Soter) soter means savior. after being the firts european pharoh in Egypt started the ptolomeic dynasty He created a new god called Serapis Chritus 325 BC.. that sirpaus christus look a a lot like the picture of what the catholic depict jesus christ. just google it... it look like the Catholic church plagirize that picture or just took that serapis chritus..
Cut it out with the conspiracy theories.
Videolarım var 😊
Öyle va benim😊
He may be Alexander the Great but his downfall was that the lands he took were not to be used of that importantly back than at his times expect for the gold and Middle eastern riches, though he was something he won't be great as the Leader of Rome, named as Octivian, Ceaser, Aurelius, Constantine, Hadrian, Trajan and etc, the Roman emperors were indeed Chad and I'm afraid Alexander wasn't that good enough, though there is some better than the Roman emperors, Leader of Grand Columbia, Empire of Brazil, Elizabeth, Caliphs of Islamic world and so on, but not a lot are better than the roman emperors, but we do know Constantine and Aurelius were one of the best
Maybe, but Alexander was the first cosmopolitan... It was him who set the idea of globalization 2400 years ago and that was very progresive for that time and its still progresive for great part of the civilization... That what makes him after Buddha, Jesus and Mohamed the fourth greatest man that ever lived and one day when the globalization take everywhere Hi could be easyly proclaimed as the most influental person that ever lived.
