I watched Spartacus on hi-def tonight. My husband was completely oblivious during the oysters or snails scene, which made me chuckle. Wikipedia has a nice entry on Spartacus. The entry explains that Anthony Hopkins dubbed Olivier’s lines when the film was remastered to include the Oysters or Snails scene with Tony Curtis.

  1. That elicited a chuckle. Tell Steve-O he’s not alone in his obliviousness… I had to consult the link myself. I always thought the flick was more about pickles than snails.

    BTW, you ever seen this site? Women’s speeches from around the world!
