Have you been thinking a lot about the Roman Empire? Have you already seen Gladiator II? Then it’s definitely time to get yourself to Vidiots for this special screening of 1960’s Spartacus, starring Kirk Douglas and directed by Stanley Kubrick. The event, co-hosted by the Getty Museum, will show the “definitive cut” of Spartacus in its 2015 4K restoration with scenes that were cut from the original 1960 classic. Getty antiquities curator Sara Cole will introduce the movie and share insights into the Thracians, drawing from the Getty Villa exhibition Ancient Thrace.
