Spartacus: Behind the Myth
This film tells the story of what I am tempted to call an ancient Che Guevara.
Blacklisted writer Howard Fast eventually wrote a novel about this ancient anti-imperialist rebel. It was adapted to film by blacklisted writer Dalton Trumbo. The film starred Kirk Douglas and was directed by Stanley Kubrick.
The story of a slave rising up against Rome has inspired many who find it in the pages of history.

Hi, please don't call me names. Other than that, say what's on your mind.
If you don't have a user name click on "other", and put down whatever the heck you want to call yourself.
Or put anonymous...
