You may not be able to find it, but anyone reading this should watch Waterloo 1970 - with Christopher Plummer and Rod Steiger it’s not perfect but almost and one of the most underrated and cult history / war films out there

My favourite scene in Gladiator 01:30 is when Maximus walks along trench and the admiration his men have for him is the best movie scene of what it is to be a respected leader!

Just watched it for the first time at 27 yrs old. Best movie I have ever seen besides, of corse, The Godfather.

[@conmane3341]

As a Millenial, that was a goosebump even watching from crappy telesynch VHS Very spectacal, enigmatic, and excitement

[@KRABAN_]

Man, i never understood the beauty of this opening when watching as a kid. the sudden cut from him walking through a warm place touching the wheat to the windy, cold, germania showing maximus' deep yearning for home, but also foreshadows that his ultimate return to peace and family will only come through death, because in the ending we see it's actually the elysium. Also i love him watching the bird fly away. he is bound by duty, honor, and the expectations placed on him as a general, where the bird embodies for the liberty he craves. what a shame ridley could not recreate this magic with the sequel.

[@madbigborz]

Indeed a masterpiece

[@230mps]

The real shame is that he attempted to. i legit thought it was a joke when i first about gladiator 2. Even by Hollywood standards, that was shocking.

[@tdr124-q8l]

My dad, who is in poor health, told me that when he was in Vietnam that he would sometimes dream of being home and would wake up in the dirt with tears in his eyes. When I worked in the oilfield I'd dream of waking up at my dads house with the smell of pancakes and eggs that he used to make. I would have a tear in my eye.

[@alire1397]

Crazy concept you’ve touched on. He was yearning for what he would only be able to find in death. Gladiator.

[@itsrightbehindyou]

This is what makes me value this movie - 00:42 - because think of this. He's not excited about whats coming. Hes confronting the very real possibility of dying in the next few minutes. Hes remembering his family with sadness that he may not see them again. And yet, something catches his eye. A bird. The bird is beautiful and fragile and simple. It brings him a fleeting moment of pleasure about the beauty of the world before heading into the hell of battle. Such a unique brief moment.

[@lucasvera7662]

excellent comment, gladiator goes beyond battle scenes, a general with all the power at his fingertips, he could be emperor of Rome, but he just wanted to return to his family, and continue having a simple life. a masterpiece, sublime

[@dermotdolan763]

riddley scott talks about that in an interview actually

[@Meesterlijker]

Great comment! I never thought of it that way before

[@robmaddison8645]

It represents stoicism. Living in the moment in harmony with nature. The fighting and organisation is all man made, but the stoic loves nature for it's simplicity and perfection.

[@RahulKumar-mt4fd]

[@Kratos-005]

The first 30 seconds are incredible. Really draws the audience in straight away. It’s just haunting with the lady’s vocals in the background and him brushing his hand in the field of wheat like in a dream.

always loved how they used the war chant from Zulu in this.

[@tristanwilliams6931]

I never knew until I read your post and then heard it in the background. Thanks for the information. Zulu is one of my favourite films, along with The Great Escape and The Day Of The Jackal.

[@JosephBaker-d9y]

Scott used it as a sort of reference to Zulu as he enjoys that film too. Not completely accurate but Zulu is good.

[@Ragnar6000]

Crowes little smile at the bird and then "game on face" is just brilliant!

[@brianmorley7165]

Greatest film ever it was never going to be in the same league

[@mojojojoslyfoxharris]

Saw the sequel and it makes me only cherish scenes like this even more! They tried to match the "epic" scale of this battle in the sequel, but it came nothing close to it. In the 3 minutes you have with Maximus before the battle, you got so much more taken away from that than the few you got with Lucius other than he had a wife and that's it. Here in the three minutes, you see how much his misses his home, him cherishing the "peace" like a bird flying away before the eve of battle, how the soldiers respect him, showing command & calmness with his top generals before the battle, and him being fully cognizant of the situation once he hears the Germanic tribes shouting once they see the messenger's horse coming back.

[@tommystravels64]

I legitimately have just copied and pasted this for the 5th time in the last 10 minutes. because once again, it's nonstop with you people..... There is quite literally a film called Gladiator 2 in theaters, as I speak. Love the generic comments in every comment section of movies who most enjoyed. Every single fucking one is full of "They don't make movies like this anymore," or "I wish there were movies this good, but since "woke Hollywood democrats....." and shit like that You commented that for a single reason....Likes. That's all. You know it, and I know it Edit: That wasn't a political statement on my part, whatsoever. It's nothing more or less than a type of comment I've seen over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.....and it's always said regarding a film that has absolutely no political undertones, of any kind.

Possibly greatest character introduction in history, almost mute. Watching soldiers attention, them brightening up upon Maximus' approach - that gesture 1:46-1:49 tells you everything about character.

0:50 이 부분부터 제일 좋아하는 장면입니다. 기타소리와 함께 기마대가 막시무스 앞을 가로질러가면서 웅장한 군단의 모습을 보여줍니다. 이어지는 장면에서 장병들이 장군을 바라보며 죽음도 불사하겠다는 다짐이 보입니다. 정말 멋진 장면입니다.
