This certainly demonstrates what Arrius was all about in the "Battle speed! "Attack speed! "Ramming speed!" segment that came before this. Not only is Arrius trying to find out just what he's working with as far as the rowers are concerned but he's also looking for material to add to his stable of gladiators and charioteers. And as the emperor's right-hand man he's got the pull to take who he wants. And he wants Judah, but interestingly only if Judah's willing. Some great acting in this film!
I always found these two characters fascinating. Arrius has achieved greatness in his life, and yet he is without faith, even on the eve of battle he has nothing to bring him solace, yet here he faces a condemned man who has endured incredible hardship longer than anyone in his situation would and yet he has never lost his faith. It's a humbling experience for a man who has everything to envy a man who has nothing.
I love this movie as a child and watched it recently. The sea battle is actually very funny looking at it today. You can see the model figures on the decks as the ships collide.
The best scene is the raft scene. I love the way the slave Judah verbally repeats the Roman Generals words back at him on the raft. Almost like the slave Judah is mocking the Roman with the Romans own words. "We keep you alive to serve this ship - row well and live".
I'm not religious, but I consider myself spiritual. I'm convinced there is a purpose in life and the universe exists for a reason. One that is too complex and magnificient for us mere mortals to understand in its full sense. Our ignorance is our burden, as well our bliss. Truly is the imperfection of our species. Anger and vengeance is what kept Judah alive, but the experiences lived throughout the story opened his heart to love and redemption. His journey is the journey of mankind: a quest for meaning and (being careful here) absolution, which in my humble opinion is a deeper state of mind when you really feel free and most importantly... loved. An energy of love cascading inside you, which washes away all negative aspects. Some call them sins. I call them humane errors. Thanks for uploading this beautiful scene.
@@Americanpatriot-zo2tk I've made my own mistakes, but I try to build my life following a simple yet liberating philosophy: _live and let live._ Don't judge: love or at least be humble enough to tolerate. Hatred and violence only poison the soul, a poison that spreads among people. I do believe we can learn to coexist. Love doesn't know about ethnicity, languages, status or other attributes. Love is learned and can be teached, same as hatred. Thanks for your kind words. May life be generous to you in present as well future.
Yep, that’s how people who run these corporations can justify treating their workers so badly by making people expendable because profits are more important than paying people enough to live decently!
Common sense too. Judah's got the ambition of saving his mother and sister but he can't do it if he's dead. Besides I don't think he really has anything personal against Arrius to begin with. Messala of course is another matter.
A man in power sees in others the potential profit he could get from them!!! usually posing as a salvation or escape means... engage women with luring words appealing to their ego and vanity until the candidate is taken to bed.....the end
Epic bit of dialogue
Quintus Arruis rejected the conversation that exposed him as an empty aimless man!!!

Any wise man would in a world like this. When you know the Truth about it.
Many poor people are happier than rich ones, they have fulfillment in their hearts! The rich want to buy it with money!
Many great scenes in this Epic.

Oh, he is mocking Arrius, no doubt about it.

I think you’re more on the right track than a lot of people that claim to know Jesus. Something tells me we’ll see each other brother.

@@-Vitalis- totally awsome post! I agree God bless
Man, Huston had some shape on him
What’s out of context is the reason that Arrius is so harsh is because he lost his son and it broke his heart.
Right. The script could have given Arrius just a little more character development in that respect.
Thank you for this download and the title.
A man without God looks at everything as a business opportunity ...money is his god! And God uses them in his mighty plan! Without their knowing!!!
Yep, that’s how people who run these corporations can justify treating their workers so badly by making people expendable because profits are more important than paying people enough to live decently!
@@cherylT321 modern minimum wage= disguised slavery
@@cherylT321 their profit is foremost and above human life!!!
well, people who invented Judeo-Christian god also don't believe in after life.
so they see everything as a business opportunity.

Your name is from that lineage!! You are invented, then!!!
Um filme que não me canso de assistir. Revê-lo, é sempre um prazer. Obrigada!❤
Such an interesting scene as an Atheist. I see truth on both sides.

41 could have taken him out immediately but his faith held him back.
