| With a burning intensity that few could match, Russell Crowe leapt off the screen in Ridley Scott's "endlessly exciting" sword 'n' sandals epic Gladiator (2000). He bagged an Oscar for his unforgettable portrayal of a Roman General who winds up fighting for his life in the name of entertainment. It cemented his A-List status in Hollywood and huge ticket sales marked the resurrection of a genre previously dismissed as a relic of Hollywood's golden age. |
