"Are you not entertained?"

Once a great Roman General, Maximus (Crowe - who is also starring in our 35mm screening of Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World) is forced into exile and slavery by Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) the jealous heir to the Emperor's throne. 

During his captivity, Maximus trains as a gladiator and returns to Rome, intent on avenging the murder of his family by killing Commodus, now the Emperor. Ridley Scott's Gladiator arguably revived the ailing genre of the historical epic with its sure pacing, on release it was described as 'the first proper stab at the genre for 40 years'.
