This telling of Spartacus’ legendary story about a great slave uprising in the Roman Empire in 70 BC wasn’t initially Kubrick’s project. Brought in by producer Kirk Douglas as a replacement to director Anthony Mann, Kubrick treaded in unfamiliar waters in this adaptation of Howard Fast’s novel-he was a newcomer to the “sword and sandal” genre which was popular at the time. The result wasn’t very Kubrickian, but it’s still a majestic example of epic film with its exteriors full of abundant number of extras, its large scale set design, star-filled cast, and unforgettable dramatic scenes requisite of the genre (“I am Spartacus!”).
