Explanation: Sir Alec Guinness played Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars: Episode IV. He also played the Emperor Marcus Aurelius in The Fall of the Roman Empire, a 1964 film.
It’s a bit mid, honestly, but has a rare depiction of the Germanic/Roman barritus warcry in a funeral scene.
Other way around right? Marcus would have been a descendant of Obi Wan since that all happened a long time ago.
I could be wrong though.
It was also in a galaxy far away.
I mean, the Renaissance was a long time before 1977, but it was still a long time after the Roman Empire.
I know Alec Guinness really didn’t like to be known for Star Wars, but because of that… people who didn’t know who he was would look him up and discover his earlier work. That is why you take jobs even if you don’t think the work is worthy of your talent.
Totally agree! I recently watched Lawrence of Arabia and the Bridge on the River Kwai for this exact reason
There’s a version of Great Expectations which features a young Alec Guinness!
Yeah well Dukoo is descendant of a real holy Roman emperor
