Spartacus: Kubrick Quest Episode 5

[@NotQuiteFirst]

He fought against the Romans, is what he did. He was a brave rebel leader. And in this house Spartacus is a hero - end of story!

The intermission would be when reels of film would be changed (although not the only time as the projectionist had to be able to change reels while the movie was playing thanks to on screen cues that they knew to look for) so the intermission would show, the lights would come back up and you'd probably have 15min maybe more to do what you needed to do. Same as at the theatre when intermission was ending there would be a chime to signify time to go back and then the movie would restart.

Absolutely love this film, especially the fight between Spartacus and Draba (Woody Strode). My parents told me they saw it in the theater when it came out, and my mom remembers she teared up near the end. They just don't make epics like this anymore. I don't think today's audiences have the patience.

Your channel has made me watch some interesting movies that I never would have considered. Red Dragon has become one of my favorites and I ended up watching all of Hannibal too. Watched Spartacus today, one thing that didn't age so well is the weird effect that they used to duplicate the Roman army in the big fight scene. If you look closely, the back half is just a still image and I think they used a double exposure or something, but it looks really bad in 1080p!

I would love to see you do this with other directors

[@couchbumkino5423]

@@ProfessionalClownDoctor I plan to! I usually just like to finish one thing before I move onto the next

Oh you absolutely have to finish this one first lol I’m loving the series

Your intense research and skillful presentation would make you a great addition to a university, but sadly there's no money in that. Could we overdub the chain gang scene with the music from O Brother where Art Thou? Po' Lazarus?

Buy they didn't have flattops on ancient Rome.

So what’s next The Shining as there was a miniseries that Steven King hated the movie as it was nothing like the book or Charle and the Chocolate factory or Sleepy Hollow for Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice sequel or for Halloween?
