SPARTACUS at HOLLYWOOD TEEN MOVIES

TONY'S COMMENTS :
"Spartacus", winner of 4 Academy Awards & filmed in Super Technirama '70, stars legendary Hollywood icon Kirk Douglas in possibly his greatest role ever. Directed by controversial filmmaker Stanley Kubrick (after director Anthony Mann left the project), "Spartacus" tells the story of a rebellious slave who is sold into gladiatorial school. When forced to fight to the death against a menacing Woody Strode, in one of the film's gripping & most memorable scenes, "Spartacus" leads a revolt & an escape to freedom. From this point onwards "Spartacus" builds up an army of freedom fighters & takes on the might of the Roman Empire. Elaborate battle sequences & a dynamic music score add to the films grandeur. "Spartacus" features a star-studded cast including Jean Simmons, Laurence Olivier, Tony Curtis & Peter Ustinov in his Academy Award winning role of Batiatus owner of the gladiatorial school. "Spartacus" is a Sword & Sandal epic in every sense of the word, a must-see film for fans of the genre.
