 DVDActive - Reviews - DVD - Spartacus: Criterion Collection (US - R1)
Films such as Braveheart and Gladiator borrow liberally from elements such as the theme, the structure, and even specific scenes such as the huge battles.
Spartacus himself takes center stage throughout the film, not just as the leader of the rebellion, but also as a man experiencing freedom for the first time, and falling in love with his fellow ex-slave Varinia (Jean Simmons).
Spartacus apparently took some severe abuse over the years, and had to be pieced together from various sources for its 1992 restoration.

His body of work has been impressive as "Manhunter" (1986), "The Last of the Mohicans" (1992), and "Heat" (1995) all have been wonderfully crafted films that still entertain to this day.
Gladiator should be regarded as pay off for The Insider.
Even if the details aren't always precise (as Mike Wallace and others protested prior to the film's release), the film adheres to a higher truth that was so blatantly violated by tobacco executives seen in an oft-repeated video clip, lying under oath in the service of greed.

 Black Hawk Down : Production Notes
Zimmer had already pioneered merging traditional African music with dramatic film music with one of his earliest scores, World Apart, A (1988), and continued with Power of One, The (1992), Lion King, The (1994) and Endurance (1998), which he produced for composer John Powell.
Coming into the Black Hawk Down fold in crucial positions were longtime collaborators of Ridley Scott's-most of whom had worked on Gladiator (2000) or Hannibal (2001), or both.
In fact, most actors in Black Hawk Down were more than willing to cast their egos aside for the opportunity of working with Ridley Scott and Jerry Bruckheimer on a project of such significance.

Due to the lack of appealing film offers and a series of flops Harris decided to quit films entirely during the early 1980s.
Latterly, Harris found a new generation of fans thanks to his screen portrayal of Harry Potter's wise old mentor and professor Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001).
