Title of the Day

[muckefuck]

The story of Wamba (English translation of Juliani Toletani episcopi Historia Wambae regis).

This tells the story of the coming to power of the 7th-century anti-Semitic Gothic King Wamba, who expelled the Jews from Spain and southern France almost a thousand years before Ferdinand and Isabella. If we soft-pedal that aspect (in the spirit of revisionist biopics past and present), what treatment would you like to see?

1. Sword-and-sandal spectacular starring a glinty-skinned C-movie actor and exotic Canadian shooting locations.
2. A grand opera in the tradition of Norma featuring the feisty Jewish maiden who can tame his turbulent barbarian soul.
3. An animated epic featuring the voice of Mel Gibson as the uncompromising Christian king with a heart of gold and a head to match.
4. (Add your own.)
