Popcorn Culture - Review: Napoleon

A Ridley Scott film comes with certain expectations: epic scale, larger-than-life characters, and lots of bombast. Napoleon certainly ticks all the boxes. The movie reunites Jaoquin Phoenix with the director, in the titular role as the famed French commander who ascends to the throne, and the plot examines his story through his relationship with the woman who is said to be his one true love, Josephine (Vanessa Kirby). We review the movie, and talk about what it takes to make a great historical epic.
