Kirk Douglas, noma u-Issur Danielovitch Demsky, ubesemhlabeni isikhathi esingaphezu kwekhulu futhi kubonakala sengathi uhlose ukuqhubeka isikhashana. Ngonyaka odlule ngambhalela Lesi sihloko futhi namhlanje ngifuna ukwenza enye engizobuyela kuyo gqamisa isici sakho njengomlobi. Futhi kudlalwe abalingiswa abaziwayo yezincwadi Futhi, njengabo, le nganekwane ye-movie iyobe ingafi noma kunjalo. Ake siye kwabayi-102, Mnu. Douglas. Noma kunoma ngubani.
Masikhumbule ukuthi isici sombhali sikaKirk Douglas saqala lapho singena 1988. Wayeseneminyaka engama-72 ubudala futhi washicilela izikhumbuzo zakhe zokuqala ngaphansi kwesihloko esithi Indodana yesidwedwe inkomba yokuhweba kukayise. Kepha yathinta nohlobo lwenoveli nezincwadi zezingane.
Izinhlamvu zezincwadi
Akunakwenzeka ukuthi kukhona abahamba ngama-movie abangabonanga Amaligi angama-20 000 angaphansi koLwandle o Spartacus. Futhi yebo, kungenzeka ukuthi kunabafundi ababone kuphela lezi zakudala zamafilimu kepha abazifundanga izincwadi. Yebo, ungakwenza kokubili futhi kumabhayisikobho uDouglas wayedlala kahle izinhlamvu zombili.
Umhlaba weNed
Amaligi angama-20 000 angaphansi koLwandle Kuyinto a kumele ube nenoveli ye-adventure zikhathi zonke.

UDouglas uhlanganise ngokuphelele iNed Land ethandekayo, eqhoshayo nesibindi ngesimo esingasoze salibaleka ngenxa yomzimba wakhe nomoya womdlandla. Mhlawumbe enye yezincazelo zakhe ezikude kakhulu zezindima zakhe ezibucayi njengezinzima, eziyindida, ezinamandla noma ezinobuqhawe azilima kakhulu.
Spartacus
