S6E39 - #63: Spartacus (1960)

Thrillseekers: The pitfalls of training slaves to fight

Show Notes

This week we discuss Spartacus from 1960, directed improbably by Stanley Kubrick and staring problematic and not particularly charismatic Kirk Douglas. We discuss the historical accuracies and inaccuracies, the majesty of Woody Strode, colonizers who are self aware, and how fun Peter Ustinov is. Recommendations: Cabinet of Curiosities (Netflix); The School of Good and Evil (Netflix) Next up: Cape Fear (1962) Email us at [email protected] Twitter: @latecomerspod Find Amity @ www.amityarmstrong.com and @AmityArmstrong on Twitter Our Facebook group is here for those who consent: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1754020081574479/
