History Professor REACTS to “Napoleon” Trailer
A historian balances the views

Napoleon Bonaparte was a TERRIBLE PERSON. He was a TYRANT. He betrayed every ideal he ever claimed to stand for. He was a shameless pathological liar who killed millions of people for his own insatiable vanity. He is literally one of the worst people in history.

You think he looks cool because he paid people to make him look cool. He used the entire resources of state and empire to make himself look cool to future generations. And meanwhile millions of people died, because peace amongst equals was alien to him.
On the day Marie Antoinette was executed Napoleon was inspecting the arsenal in Marseilles.
Too old to play Napoleon. Napoleon charging with cavalry?
