A Beautiful Mind and Man of Steel star Russell Crowe recalls wild audience reactions to Maximus and Commodus' fight at Gladiator's climax.
Actor Russell Crowe recently recalled wild reactions from the audience to Gladiator's climactic fight scene. Directed by Blade Runner's Ridley Scott, the blockbuster sword-and-sandal epic followed Hispano-Roman General Maximus Decimus Meridius in 180 AD after he was betrayed by newly-ascended Emperor Commodus . Left dying at his home after burying his wife and son, he is sold into slavery, only to fight his way back to Rome to confront Commodus as a gladiator.
"Blown away" by the theatrical experience, Crowe recalls the emotional connection people had with the movie, reminding him of going to the cinema as a child. As the film reached the climactic fight between Maximus and Commodus with the former general nearly killed, the actor admits he was floored by the crowd's visceral response. Read what Crowe said below:
The Emperor puts that knife under Maximus' arm towards the end. People were angry, they were standing in their seats and going [points at screen] and calling him a motherf--ker and all that. And I was like, "Whoa! This is big."
