Beyond the Movie: Alexander the Great

Greece and Southwest Asia, 300 BC: Ever wonder how Alexander earned the nickname, "The Great"? 1st, there was Alexander, and then there were all the other generals who came after him and suffered from "Alexander-envy." The film Beyond the Movie: Alexander the Great is a documentary produced by the National Geographic Society that tells the story of Alexander, the Greek-Macedonian who conquered Persia and spread Greek culture throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa. This is a fascinating story of a larger-than life person who changed the world. This documentary is a great supplement to the Greek Crucible films that I posted within this unit.
