Spartacus is the story of a Roman slave rebellion. (A favorite topic for Soviet socialist- realism, by the way.) This is a fairly early movie (pre-Lolita), and I remember it as a well done pot-boiler. "Lolita" is an interesting movie too. It caught the flavor of the Nabokov novel quite nicely. I think James Mason played the lead, with Peter Sellers in a very odd role. "Barry Lyndon" was a beautiful movie to look at, if nothing else. - Judy Grass, University of Illinois - Urbana {ihnp4,pur-ee,convex}!uiucdcs!grass grass%uiuc.arpa Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
