One of the all-time classics, which surely needs no introduction. A beautifully paced and witty comedy, including Curtis's great parody of Cary Grant's playboy image, and one of the greatest lines of all time.... "Nobody's perfect" when Joe Brown discovers his fiancee is a man.

Huge epic, set during the heyday of Republican Rome, in all its ostentatious glory. The story details the purchase and selection of slaves, the harsh discipline and routine of the gladiators' school, the new comradeship balked by the realisation that a gladiator must kill or be killed. Then the film really comes into its own with the superbly staged revolt and escape, led by the slave who, with his unlikely army, holds the Roman army at bay for four years. Magnificent, masterful....a classic! find out more...
