    While at Agora, the city’s now-ethics director predicted Obama’s election “will be the worst day for democracy since January 30, 1933,” when Adolf Hitler became chancellor and called Al Gore’s climate change movie “science fiction” that should have won the “Leni Riefenstahl award”

    Bizarrely, my only movie credit (so far) is for translating some lines into Greek for Agora, the film about Hypatia

    Just finished watching the movie Agora (2009). It was excellent and I felt it showed a good depiction of men and Christians then and now. The ending was very good. But for the murder, silencing, and erasure of women by men, we would be millennia ahead in science today.

    “We have no record from Hypatia about the circumstances of her life,” writes Meg Elison in her review of the 2009 film about the ancient Roman philosoher. “Letters written to her by men are preserved; none of her letters to them remain.” https://wildhunt.org/2026/02/classics-of-pagan-cinema-agora.html #pagan #witchcraft #moviereview #agora

    in the Life of David Gale they call him a philosopher but he’s mewling away about psychodynamic junk — the only movie besides Agora or I Heart Huckabees that has a philosopher talk like a philosopher is The Spinning Man (2018) with Guy Pearce, but the character was loathsome, filmmakers are mean

    I recall viewing the film “Agora” which dramatized her work and life. Although her martyrdom was depicted differently the responsibility of the Christians was clearly shown.

    You've got two options. Rachel Weisz played her in a movie called AGORA. Or there's Hypatia Lee, 1980s porn star.

    Sim, acho esse filme bem fraco. Dos mais antigos dele, gosto de "Afinado no amor", "O Paizão" e "Happy Gilmore". Agora, "Airheads" talvez seja o melhor do Adam Sandler nos anos 90, mas ele divide o protagonismo com o Brendan Fraser e o Steve Buscemi. Já viu esse? youtu.be/mpxOTk4DDJo?...

  • RalphRahal @RalphRahalTMDB reviews · Dec 17, 2024

    Agora is a well-crafted film that manages to be both entertaining and educational. While the movie takes some creative liberties with the historical events, which is understandable given the gaps in recorded history, it does a great job of capturing the essence of the time. The writing feels solid, and despite some moments that might stretch historical accuracy, the story remains compelling and thought-provoking. The acting is another highlight. Rachel Weisz shines as Hypatia, bringing…

  • TheRealMina @minyminaTMDB reviews · Aug 4, 2023

    Agora represents a rather chaotic and completely inaccurate historical biopic. Despite the commendable acting by Rachel Weisz and Oscar Isaac, the movie, which was created with a significant budget, strangely exudes an air of thriftiness typically associated with lower-budget productions. The storyline itself verges on the absurd, taking considerable liberties with historical facts by reshaping them and even conjuring entirely new occurrences. This departure from reality transforms the work…
