Additional InformationSPARTACUS, based on Howard Fast's popular novel, is Stanley Kubrick's glorious masterpiece about a slave uprising in Rome in 70 BC. Kirk Douglas, who also served as executive producer, stars as the title character, a man born of a slave woman and a slave master who has known nothing but chains for his entire life. After being forced to put on a gladiator show--that almost leads to his death--for wealthy Romans (including a marvellously conniving Laurence Olivier as the power-hungry Crassus), Spartacus leads a slave revolt across Italy that soon has thousands marching on Rome. Meanwhile, he has fallen in love with the beautiful Varinia (an effervescent Jean Simmons), pledging his life to her.<BR>Douglas assembled a fabulous all-star cast for the film; in addition to himself, Simmons, and Olivier, terrific performances are turned in by Charles Laughton as the curmudgeonly senator Gracchus, John Gavin (PSYCHO) as the young Julius Caesar, Tony Curtis as Antoninus (a singer of songs, with all lines delivered in a beautifully thick New York accent), and especially Peter Ustinov, an Oscar winner for his portrayal of the businessman Batiatus, who always wants to know what's in it for him. Blacklisted writer Dalton Trumbo's melodramatic script and Alex North's thrilling, soaring score add a majesty that helps make SPARTACUS one of the finest costume epics to ever come out of Hollywood.

It all started here
Spartacus the true Roman epic , never beaten . I always worry when I purchase blue rays of old films as often the quality does not meet expectations , this on the other hand does, its perfect, the image is first class, with good colour scale and the sound is as it should be , fitting to the original engineers work. The film has been shown many times on television , but when I watch it in my cinema , you understand that's really how it should be presented, ok not everyone can see it that way, but if it looks good on a 15 foot screen, it will look great on anything. You may have a standard DVD of the film, well you know the story , now watch it for real and get it , you will not be disappointed . 5 stars .Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
