Ancient Worlds is about people and places, politics and economics, art and war, trade and technology, but above all it’s the story of the painful birth and difficult growth of a radical idea first tried and tested some six thousand years ago, and which we are still struggling with today; civilisation. Civilisation has not come easily; it’s something we’ve had to fight hard to achieve, and even harder to maintain, and the greatest threats to it have come from our own talents for destruction. But when we’ve managed to get it right, the benefits have been enormous.
When we talk about the ancient world we tend to think of rare and exotic artefacts or the monumental remains of epic architecture; but these are just the empty shells that got left behind when the tide of history turned! The living creatures, the civilisations, that once inhabited these shells were rarely if ever static or stately; they were dynamic, chaotic, and always threatening to spin out of control, because civilisation is based on an improbable idea; that strangers can live and work together in dense urban settings, forging new allegiances that replace the natural ties of family, clan or tribe. It’s an idea we’re still coming to terms with today, but one of the best ways to understand the challenges that are involved is to look at how our ancestors tackled them the first time around.
From ancient Iraq to Imperial Rome, Ancient Worlds examines how our ancestors struggled with the levers of religion and politics, art and culture, war and diplomacy, technology and trade in order to keep the complex machinery of their civilisations turning over. Their insights and blind-spots, their breakthroughs and dead ends, their triumphs and disasters are the milestones on the long and winding road that leads directly from their ancient to our modern world.

经典儿童喜剧片《小鬼当家》的重启新版电影《Home Sweet Home Alone》宣布档期:今年11月12日独家上线流媒体Disney+。
该片由《乔乔兔》颇受好评的小演员Archie Yates、艾丽·坎伯尔(《伴娘》《我本坚强》)、罗伯·德兰尼(《大祸临头》)等主演,并非与老版剧情一样的翻拍,而是原创故事,片名也有所改动。片方宣传时归类为“《小鬼当家》重启拍新版”,是因为概念相似。
老版《小鬼当家》在1990年上映,讲述麦考利·卡尔金的经典角色——小男孩“凯文”被父母不慎留在家中,他一个人玩得很嗨,然后要面对闯入的盗贼。这部新版则讲述坎伯尔和德兰尼饰演的一对夫妻要从Mercer家偷走一件贵重的传家宝,而Yates饰演的“淘气又足智多谋”的男孩正是Mercer家的孩子,他的父母都去日本旅游了,剩下他一个人保护这个家免遭窃贼。Dan Mazer(《波拉特2》)执导,SNL的编剧麦基·戴和Streeter Seidell写剧本
