On Historical movies, truly, deeply awful

Presented for your consideration: The Conqueror, the totally untrue story of Genghis Khan (nee Timujin) played by the totally ridiculous John Wayne on a really, really deadly piece of land.

It ends as all historical tales should end: 'But then they all died.'



btw, no one has ever bothered to keep track of the hundreds of Navajo extras playing Mongols horsemen who probably died from the same cause.
