"Ich bin Spartacus!" ... Die Geschichte des Sklavenaufstandes gegen die unmenschliche Gesellschaft Roms um 74 v. Chr. unter dem thrakischen Sklaven Spartacus ...Der großartige Kirk Douglas mit einer seiner unvergesslichsten und schönsten Filmrollen in Stanley Kubricks Mammut-Meisterwerk SPARTACUS ... ... Nice!
"At the time of its first release in 1960, SPARTACUS was hailed as the first intellectual epic since the silent days – the first Roman or Biblical saga to deal with ideas as well as spectacle. Even the ending was daring. The crucified hero is denied a conventional victory, and has to be consoled with the hope that his ideas will survive.
Seen three decades later in a lovingly restored version, SPARTACUS still plays like an extraordinary epic, and its intellectual strength is still there. ... The most courageous thing about it, from today’s standards, is that it closes without an obligatory happy ending, and an audience that has watched for 187 minutes doesn’t get a tidy, mindless conclusion." --- Quelle: Roger Ebert
