The whole face reveal scene where he says his name, commander of the true army of the north, husband to a murdered wife…….. is probably one of the hardest lines in all of cinematography. Nothing has ever come close for me.
Joaquín Phoenix was only 24 years old when he did this film! He said he was absolutely terrified the entire time and had the shakes. We never saw how scared he was and he was one of the greatest villains of all time!
Oliver Reed was drinking and partying pretty hard during the filming of this movie and passed away of a heart attack after a drinking contest at a pub before the movie was finished, so they had to use some CGI and tricky lighting to finish a few of his scenes.
It's really sad he died. That said, he went out like a legend. The amount of alcohol he drank was insane. There was one point in his life where it was said he drank over 100 pints in a 24 hour time period.
When listening to Maximus describe his home, I can't help but wonder has everyone ever tried to landscape a home like that. As Marcus Aurelius said "sounds like a good home".
I studied Cinematography in Romania and our teacher for Film Production told us Ridley's team came to check out some locations for the first battle scene. The one they liked the most was at the end of a really rough forest path and he asked Ridley's Producer - won't it be an issue to get all the cars and vans to this place? No, if we decide on this location, we'll just build a road up to here. That's the kinda budget it had.
Just wanted to praise you for the new method of presentation. Really enjoyed being able to clearly see the parts of the movie you do show. I know there are tough copyright laws to abide by.
It's interesting you mention the screenplay, because I believe Crowe said they only had about 20 full pages when they started filming. Large swaths of the dialogue, including Crowe's beautiful description of his home in Spain at the beginning of the film, was improvised, and it's always bothered me that Crowe wasn't given a writing credit on this film.
Not completely.There was Marcus Aurelius and Commodus who did fight with gladiators and was killed by one.Rome did exist and had wars against barbarians.Roman historian with a PHD wow those can’t be wrong on anything.😂
@@piotrswat169I think that someone who Would consider themselves a historian in that way would just not even pay attention to the generalities as accurate or not... He's most likely hyperfocused on like things that we wouldn't even pay attention to because we would say obviously those are creative liberties but I agree with you.That that generalizing the whole thing is not historically accurate.It's kind of missing the general historical accuracy... It's the individual accuracy that's not historical... You can't see the forest from the trees kind of thing
@@piotrswat169 There are many inaccuracies. First and foremost, Commodus didn't kill his father. Marcus Aurelius loved his son almost to a fault. The problem is that Commodus had no interest in ruling so he would shirk pretty all the good advice and lessons his father tried to teach him. After Marcus died, he (Commodus) basically handed the rule off to one of his advisors. Unfortunately, he was a corrupt advisor that would steal grain and withhold it from the citizenry so they would be left starving. This, in turn, made the citizenry hate Commodus. Commodus was a horrible emperor, but he also had some pretty big shoes to fill. He might've only been a mediocre emperor, but his father's shadow was long and made him look so much worse by comparison. He entered the Gladiatorial games to prove himself to his people, but once his trainer found out that he was making sure his opponents swords were blunt while his was sharp, he was strangled in the bath because it was wildly dishonorable. The trainer was then quartered for it if my memory is right.
I have to say, many said the gladitors games wouldn't be watched today. I beg to differ. No doubt some would protest them, but MANY people watch horrible things. It's like some weird part of our brains. Hence the term "It was like a trainwreck, I couldn't look away!" If a gladiator game aired on TV (somehow past censors), it would get ALOT of views. It's human nature. And worse yet, I bet many of the people watching would gamble on it. Even if video games we are entertained by arena battles. While many games have arena battles, some of those in the game universe are viewed by others. For example in the Unreal Tourament games, it was a universal thing where people watched deathmatch tournaments. It was aired for everyone to watch. As for real life modern arenas. Before the UFC/MMA stuff became airable on tv, people loved it. There were very little rules. It could be super graphic and violent. With death happening to often. Even today people post videos of themselves having battles, smashing each other over the body with long holligen tube lights, throwing each other onto tables...etc. Not WWF style where its safely done, but I'm talking ametures. Again, I have no doubt people would watch gladiator games if they came back. To note though, I'm talking about games where people volunteered instead. Obviously most people would not be ok if people were captured or forced into said games.
Humans are drawn to misery and suffering. It's a weird instinct in our brain like we desire to experience the bad so that we might be better prepared in future. We seek knowledge in all of its forms, and knowledge of a violent and deadly nature is so taboo in the modern world, that it would feel like true forbidden learning, when watching a gladiator game. That is human greatness in one act. Seeking knowledge. ALL knowledge.
You stop and jump to conclusions too quickly. Marcus Aurelius changed the map. It wasn't arrogance it was contemplation. You don't need to comment every minute. Give yourself time to understand what you are seeing.
Slave revolts in Rome were punished with crucifixion, which is what a gladiator killing the owners would be considered. And it'd be really hard to get to Rome being hunted be the legions.
I remember watching this at the Cinema when it was 1st released and it was stunning to see it on a large screen. An amazingly well crafted and acted movie from start to finish. And yes, very very rewatchable!
I was flipping my table when you said between 8 and 9, this film is a masterpiece. pleased to see how much you enjoyed it though, its got to be one of the best movies ever made.
22:56 In real life she DID try to poison him. Her attempt failed and she and 2 co-conspirators were exiled and then very soon after executed on Commodus's order. Also, Marcus Aurelius and Commodus co-ruled for 3 years until Marcus died. This story is kind of... an alternat teality story. That is, it's similar to the true history (much more than, say, Braveheart) and yet there was no Maximus to execute him out of vengeance in the arena, thereby saving Lucilla's life. Commodus was eventually assassinated (allegedly) by his sparring partner and Commodus did sometimes join in arena duels.
Actually, when Maximus stepped into the Colosseum as a gladiator, that was the first time he had ever seen the Colosseum. That's something that he and the emperor talked about at the beginning of the movie.
A cinematographer in (I'm guessing) his fourties that has never seen this epic and top notch production? That's like a football (soccer) player that never saw Messi or Ronaldo.
Interesting fact. Oliver Reed died after filming his parts. Look up the story of how they ended up keeping him in the film and even cobbled together parts of the film and unused scenes to change how he died in the film. It's pretty interesting.
From Australia, love your reaction , there isn't a person on this planet that doesn't love this movie, absolute epic in cinema , sorry mate but this movie is 10 out of 10 , I'll give you a few days to think it over and you'll soon agree, 8 out of 10 is way harsh for this great movie , watching you over many years love your music reactions , Peace from down under.
Under Roman Law, if any slave unalived their "master" all the slaves owned by the deceased were put to death. Maximus absolutely would know that so that's why he didn't kill the enslaver
clicked off just shy of 27 mins when you decided you laughing was better use of camera time than the powerful "My name is Maximus...." lines. Interesting choice cutting arguably the best sequence of lines in the entire movie.
This is stupid... We know what the lines are... So do the copyright people... Quickest way to get demonetized.Put in the most iconic lines From giant intellectual properties.... None of that's an interesting choice except you clicking it off like you're watching the director's cut commentary instead of a youtube reaction channel...
Us poor Brits/ Celts had to put up with the Roman army and still have their ruins all over the place. The film is brilliant and the story is part of us.
Not in the original script.... because in the original script Lucius is the son of Lucius Varus...another general which Lucilla married and had that child with...but then Lucius Varus died out in combat.
Yeah... Those two notes are really really great... 😂😂😂... I think john williams just rolled over in his grave... I mean they're really effective but when I think of The Dark Knight trilogy soundtrack All I hear is those two notes... And I know there's more to it but like if you had said inception which I don't think isn't as good of a movie as some people believe but the music is way more intricate... But maybe. That's your point and it's the simplicity of the that types of theme music that you enjoy in specific situations... I mean, I'm someone who believes that You can make an entirely amazing song by using just one note and having rhythm, And bending it, In certain genres especially, so, it's not even completely sarcastic when I say those 2 notes are really great LO.L... But I do think it's kind of a strange choice to get you into that type of thing ( I guess in all fairness john williams did make the jaw's theme and that is basically two notes as well...)
russell crowe was on rogan fairly recently. the only full podcast that i've watched in a very long time. he's one of the only good ones that deals with hollyweird. he's austrailian, lives in austrailia, and his hobby weirdly enough is being an actual rancher on the ranch that he's built up and lives on.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that in some regions, if a slave (Gladiator) were to kill the master of the house, the entire stock would subsequently be executed.
Love the whole 'No, no you didn't.' haha *edit* Also, yea, big plot hole... in this scenario setup, that 'sister' could have slipped a stiletto into that guy's heart and taken the L for the 'better good'. Instead, they all wanted someone else to take the fall while patting themselves on the back for the likes. *edit edit edit* Go on and get this, this is for you, this is for you... DAAAAAAMN hahahhahaa
Did you get to see the film crew (white t-shirt & blue jeans) in the crowd left side during the "Are you not entertained" speech. This film has a lot in common with the 1960s film Fall of the Roman Empire. Gladiatorial battles at the Colosseum, this is what happens when there is no Saturday morning TV.
In my estimation the closest anything else gets to what gladiator life was... are the Tributes in The Hunger Games. Forced to fight? Absolutely. But for their 15 minutes of fame all eyes are.on them and if they do well and manage to live through several bsttles, they're treated like favorite sports athletes by the arena patrons and street hypemen.
Everyone forgets Dreamworks has a live action movie division. They have made some great movies. Saving Private Ryan, Castaway, Lincoln, Tropic Thunder just to name a few…
The "historical aspects" of this movie are pure fantasy. "Maximus" did not exist. Commodus and Marcus Aurelius shared the throne for the last 11 years of Marcus' life. Marcus died of "a plague" (probably smallpox) in what is now Vienna, not smothered in Germania. Commodus died, as you noted, in a public bathhouse, not stabbed in the Coliseum (though Commodus did fight in the Coliseum from time to time). It's a good flick, but it isn't even close to reality! ;)
The story is highly inaccurate Marcus Aurelius had no desire to make rome a Republic again he infact went to lengths to strengthen the process to make emperor inheritable and he dragged his son with him on campaign to teach him how to be emperor, the entire reason Commodus was such a terrible emperor is because he never wanted to be emperor he just wanted be a spoiled rich nobel who partied all the time, it wouldn't be until a failed assassination attempt that Commodus would really become a problem and even then it was only really the nobility that didn't like him the general public quite liked him
The whole face reveal scene where he says his name, commander of the true army of the north, husband to a murdered wife…….. is probably one of the hardest lines in all of cinematography. Nothing has ever come close for me.
That and the look on Joaquin Phoenix's face.
And Crowe hated the line, but couldn’t improvise anything better so he went with it.
@@waylonbocephus that is why, it must be him!
"My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father. Prepare to die!"
Yea that's for you, yea yea, right, yea that's for you, I like that for you, yea yea. Hahhahahahahha had me dead hahahahahahaha
And spoken so gently and softly, like to a child...
that empathic looks and the nodding while saying it. He truly wanted him to have it.
5:50 "Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times."
Joaquín Phoenix was only 24 years old when he did this film! He said he was absolutely terrified the entire time and had the shakes. We never saw how scared he was and he was one of the greatest villains of all time!

Definitely a cinematic masterpiece. One of the best for theater surround sound. Especially the opening battle.
When listening to Maximus describe his home, I can't help but wonder has everyone ever tried to landscape a home like that. As Marcus Aurelius said "sounds like a good home".
RIP Oliver Reed. Shadows and Dust!

The writer's guild has very strict rules about who gets screenplay credit. You can't just get credit if you improvise lines.
Good to know, that's even more of an accomplishement to have made such a good film then
14:09 Because a brutal death would be assured if you tried that. Whereas there's a miniscule chance of survival by obeying.
Per a Roman historian, with PHD, this story is a complete farse historically. But.stil a most favorite of mine. I love the story and cinematography.
The historical accuracy may be a farce, but what about period accuracy, in his opinion?
How do you feel about the film "The Fall of the Roman Empire" which Gladiator closely follows?
Not completely.There was Marcus Aurelius and Commodus who did fight with gladiators and was killed by one.Rome did exist and had wars against barbarians.Roman historian with a PHD wow those can’t be wrong on anything.😂

HArd men create weak times, weak times create soft men, Weak times create hard me, rinse lather and repeat.
they put $103M in and got $430M out. not a bad investment for this movie.

lol yes it's haunting how far up this movie sets the bar for a reviewer few will compare.
MrLBoyd its just a movie. its not historically accurate. still enjoyed your commentary
I dont think being a slaver or slave owner back in the day makes them scum. This was just the world.
Have you seen Tom Cruises The Last Samurai? I love that movie as well.
#1 Favorite movie of all time
There's a slight buzz from the mic? Not from the movie playing.
yes
Maximus got poison dagger to the heart
Dead in 8 minutes commodus dead in 5
Masterpiece
I can't speak to the truth but in Spartacus, if any slaves rebelled all the slaves would be executed.

Never watched gladiator?
In an interview, the Sister revealed that she believed during filming, that Lucius' father was Gladius.
