Review of Spartacus (1960) by Anatoly S — 09 May 2008
While this maybe directed by legendary director Stanley Kubrick this stands as more Kirk Douglas? epic and basically stopped Kubrick from ever falling into a situation like he was stuck with dealing on this film.
I don?t really care who was responsible, but I do know I love this epic slave revolt film. It is practically the precursor to Gladiator. The cast is marvelous for this film featuring such greats as Laurence Olivier, Tony Curtis, Jean Simmons, and Peter Ustinov among probably a cast a thousands.
It is a great story furthered by a rousing score by Alex North.
