Why is that american in the series talking about Sean Connery? She doesn't seem to know anything about him and just says the most general things anyone can say about films and acting. The other commentators speak with enthusiasm about Sean Connery but she seems quite clueless. Has she seen any of his films? It's embarrassing to watch.

It's obvious the people roped into to comment on the actors are chosen for certain reasons. Not because they are experts on the subject but because they fit the type of person which is fashionable to have onboard. So it is more important to have talking heads that match a certain type of person rather than for their expertise. The whole thing weakens the series and it cannot be deemed as a serious source of information regarding classic films.

I'm not sure Sweden should be making such religious films. Why should anyone in Sweden be interested in such a religious topic which few swedes would know or care about? Has state money gone into this production? I thought the Swedish state is non-religious. Why then has money been invested in making such a film about deeply religious people and which takes place in a foreign country? I suppose it is considered correct to promote such values.

Who in Sweden is going to see this film, I wonder? It's hardly a subject matter that people will flock to see. I doubt it will be a huge success among swedes. Maybe the Egyptians will love it.
