► How can I reward Rome's greatest General? Let Me Go Home.

Gladiator, a truly powerful movie that will be remembered for eternity. This movie hits very personally to me, and It ventures into a lot of philosophy which I study a lot. I wanted to make this video, to tell the story of Maximus while he fights through hardship in the era of Ancient Rome.

"Wisdom, Justice, Courage, and Moderation." - The Four Stoic Virtues.
All are embodied in Maximus throughout this film.

Thank you all for watching, stay strong out there, and don't give up on the fight.

"What we do now, echoes in eternity" ~Marcus Aurelius

    Thank you everyone for watching! If you are interested in STOICISM, considering checking out my latest video which dropped a few minutes ago. It's a philosophical essay about death with the perspective of Stocisim. It also has lot of Gladiator clips in it. Thank you! https://youtu.be/fEhJULqY-qY

    Saw this movie at 10 years old. 33 now and it is still the greatest movie I've ever seen.

    “It is not death a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.” A wise man.

    “Death smiles at us all, all we can do is smile back!” What a powerful quote!
  • @Petey17564
    Ahhh when movies were good and about strong men that had values. Hollywood is a joke now

    Heavenly Father I pray you keep the person that's reading this alive, safe, healthy and financially blessed. Amen
  • "Your faults as a son, is my failure as a father." Damn that hits different, every single time. This is the best movie I have ever seen.

    Excellent film... The most powerful men that I knew didn't seek power... It always came to them, even when they didn't want it.

    Humanity is lost right now. This message brings me back to what really matters. Thank you!!

    “What we do in life, echoes in eternity.” “Death smiles at us all, all a man can do, is smile back.” “STRENGTH & HONOUR.” "Now We Are Free..."

    23 year later & still the best movie ever 🙏❤✔

    I have to admit, this movie made me weep. The most honourable stands of all time. Men understand.
  • I can watch this movie over and over again and not get bored!
  • I watched this movie with my father at 11 years old. It touched my soul. I’m 34 now and they’ve still never created a movie like this ever again.
  • It sad that I can't watch this movie again for the first time. Always had a goosebumps when Russel says "I am Maximus Decimus Meridius...."
  • Simply one of the best movies ever made. This is the pinnacle of movie making! They dont/can't make them like this anymore

    That "Let me go home" always breaks me
