Over the summer, I had the joy of catching up with my dear friend, Kate, of the Exploress. We watched the VERY LONG (OMG) film classic Cleopatra. We discuss the good, the weird, the tacky and Richard Burton's short toga. Enjoy!

I love the conversation on cleopatras race because as a nerd I know she’s Greek . It’s very clear in the sources I feel like. As a black woman I know the reason my community does this is because misinformation and we don’t have a lot well known royal and historical figures from Africa. So I hope us history nerds find historical royals from Africa so we can quit pulling poor Cleo into a genealogy debate 🤣I love y’all so much btw ❤️
OMG. I saw this movie when it came out, I was in high school. I loved it, probably didn’t understand it all. It was amazing in 1963. I feel old.
That's so cool!
