The beautiful thing is the photo, which takes up half the front page, is a shining example of how great immigration has been for this country, and utterly undermines the message below it. It could’ve been worse, they could have chosen other pictures, so I’m glad they chose that one.

A map of Europe showing the juice content of Fanta Orange in various countries, sourced from Coca-Cola's website. The map uses a gradient color scale to indicate juice percentages. Greece has the highest juice content at 20%, followed by France at 12% and Spain at 8%. Most other countries in Europe have Fanta Orange juice content ranging between 3% and 6%. The map notes that the U.S. Fanta Orange contains no juice.

It's 0% in the USA

I remember it really struggling to get a release at the time. But the cast, crew, costume, production design, etc were all amazing. Loads of different types of fake snow in the thirty degree Spanish heat.

Given the star power alone, you'd think this would have had a revival by now on streaming. I assume it's a rights issue? Or the contentious content? Either way, it's an example of why I'm reading through these old Empires - discovering films which I wouldn't otherwise know or about or see.

I haven’t watched it in years, I remember it being pretty good with some fairly trippy bits. There was a great shot with a contra zoom at the castle gates as it burned to the ground. I’ve got the dvd somewhere, I’ll have to dig it out and watch it again.

Never seen it. #empireread #june2001

That’s weird, I worked on ‘The Mummy Returns’ as well, a few of the camera crew from this also worked on ‘The Reckoning’.
