Review of Alexandria: The Greatest City (2010) by Byron B — 15 Feb 2016
Uses several clips from Alejandro Amenábar's Agora of 2009 to illustrate life in ancient Alexandria. Bettany Hughes, who has hosted many TV documentaries of a historical nature, travels around modern Alexandria talking to experts of various disciplines.
I wouldn't be surprised if some of these experts were also consultants for Agora. It is an informative and quick moving history lesson.
