In my opinion, I think that she gave a masterclass in acting in this film, the palpable fear when she is with her brother, the anxiety for her son. In this scene, she transforms in a moment from grief, with one last look at Maximus, to becoming a regal figure. I also noticed that she kept her back to her brother throughout.......how dare you turn your back to me!

[@predzworld5545]

This movie thought me frm young what a TRUE man/ warrior is about! Shout out to ALL my Gladiators striving evryday✊🏾.

[@mitchellheard8981]

This film will always be regarded in my mind as a timeless masterpiece.

[@filipsalzman5287]

who didn't cry at this scene, ain't a man

[@chickendrawsdogs3343]

"Hey, I'm dead over here! Somebody get me to my funeral?" - Commodus "Did you guys hear something?" - Quintus

[@MemphisAlmighty]

Just imagine, it really ends like that. You walk through a gate and go "home" and maybe there are already deceased family members or friends waiting there.

[@jonathansuaybaguio7624]

That would be a nice way to depart from this earth-realm to that kind of Place. Live the life to the fullest - and depart with no regrets.

[@rodwyr]

After Commodus’ death, it was decreed that all toilets in Rome would be referred to as “commodes”...😛

[@user-fk9md2il4d]

Its amazing how Maximus brought the people of Rome together Even in the Final scene you see Military Slaves, Royalty, and Politicians, common men all on the Coloseum Ground around his body, all on one level.

[@mikehunt4618]

Should the aliens ever come to Earth and ask to understand humanity, show them this movie.

[@thegreatbamboozler4837]

no.... show them "Earth Girls are Easy".

[@disfatbidge2064]

Show them hentai.

humans in general can never live up these expectations

​ @The Great Bamboozler you mean war implements?? If actual money, it will in all probability, prove quite worthless...we are programmed to value it, no?

He died with a smile. He "smiled back at death" just as Marcus Aurelius said. 23 years later and I still find new small details in this movie.

[@markhogan9435]

Every time she says "he was a soldier of Rome " the way she speaks it gives me goose bumps...best movie ever made

[@melikeomac9871]

this music makes me cry so emotional

[@theboss9404]

Melikee I will never make you cry, darling

[@lucasstamper8150]

Hans Zimmer. He is an amazing composer.

[@brahimlabaali6144]

I hope to meet you one day

[@sgarcia9884]

Melikeomaccc I agree. We r free is a wonderful song and in this movie emotional. This singer and Keith from Celtic thunder singing this song I love. Then her speech the tears start coming hard along with all the men offering to carry him. I wanted to always name my son after Maximus but husband got his way and a jr. Darn it.

[@BoiseState5000]

Lisa Gerrards voice is absolutely amazing

[@Johnboydownunder]

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

[@wtfdaily1637]

i'm 35 yrs old and ex-military and remember seeing this when i was a child and cried. i am now 6ft3 205lbs and i still cry like that little boy when i see this. makes me feel emotions i forgot a movie could produce. amazing.

[@2215jamikarr]

"Is Rome worth one good man's life, we believe it once, make us believe it again "one of my favourite quote from my favourite movie ever...

[@williamwhite2113]

I tear up when Maximus dies, it is that powerful to me. That Lucilla said "He was a soldier of Rome. Honor him" makes the scene so important to make the ending complete. One of the great endings in film.

[@georgejackson462]

Very emotional scene and then all of the sudden you hear a dumb music and you remember you live in a fucked up world and advertismemts are what's up

[@samasoku]

+George Jackson so much YES!

[@connorkenton1067]

So many memories and emotional moments at the end of the Gladiator 2000 movie.

[@truthwarrior3393]

this is always gunna be the most saddest ending to any movie for me, it never gets old, its so beautifully thought out, yes i am a 33 year old male and yes i cried like a little baby when i saw this the first time n i will continue to keep crying each time i watch it, the goose bumps i get when he first falls to the floor along with lisa gerrards voice it just sends me to that place i can't explain it, i just really hope that is what happens when you die, living in peace being with your loved ones for enternity, great movie.

[@davec3651]

Epilog: Commodus gets up and says "well, that wound wasn't fatal after all, I'm still Emperor!"

[@harbingerd.8457]

Also Commodus: *Get strangled in his bathtub by his coach after that*

[@muratylmaz2995]

This movie makes you believe that you will be see your loved ones again, even if you are atheist it doesn't matter, just for a moment you wanted to believe deeply... Father, if you hear me somehow i want you to know I miss you so much... People, don't forget to save some time for your loved ones, when i am graduated from collage my father was at hospital because of cancer. It was the most emotionless day of my life.

[@dope6239]

A man dying after being betrayed and taking his revenge and STILL saying " THERE WAS A DREAM THAT WAS ROME .... SHALL BE REALISED" only a true man who has real respect to his dreams and duty would utter those words

[@BWong1234]

A movie, a class of its own. The music and the ending that makes so many cried, including me.

[@arnaugarzaran1375]

People say this is a fighting film with action, but it's more than this...

[@mamory3791]

I love how silent the crowd was during his departure!

[@vyshak4455]

I wish I could have seen him leading his army back to Rome like the original plan. Would have loved to see the soldiers' reactions to him being alive.

[@Elmo1989xx]

No matter of age, geography, religion and all the world's problems, we all feel. We ALL have compassion, empathy and we all LOVE. Just wish we showed these qualities to everyone all of the time.

[@user-wk4iw8gt8r]

Elmo. " We are all one " is what you truly meant

[@mac9162]

24 Yes, we all come frm Star dust matters.

[@kathyrene3586]

Elmo. It’s hard to show love to everyone, especially your enemies, like comudas he needed to go away, a very evil man.

[@pixelart59]

I'm a 37 year old man and this scene still makes me cry 😭

[@connorkenton1067]

Greatest Gladiator movie of all time. 😊

[@p_j6159]

This is the most emotionel moment of this awesome movie with awesome music.I cann’t keep it dry.

[@Twister051]

Yes, Maximus was a fearless warrior and leader, but what makes him so powerful is that he actually preferred peace to violence, and men like that are more powerful than any army.

“I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien (Faramir, son of Denethor, Steward of Gondor, in THE TWO TOWERS)

[@sophieamandaleitontoomey9343]

And then…after so much suffering… He finally found peace.

[@solidsnakeisme]

One of my all time favorite movies. Even though I've seen it hundreds of times, this scene still makes me cry. He finally gets to go home to his family, he's truly free.
