Spartacus at The Palace

Spartacus posterThe eyes, the hair, the dimple... the sheer charisma of Kirk Douglas -- on the big screen.
They're reason enough to see Stanley Kubrick's 1960 classic "Spartacus" at Albany's Palace Theater tonight. This story of a slave turned gladiator who leads a revolt against the Roman Empire won four Oscars back in the day. It also stars Olivier, Peter Ustinov
and, of course, Tony "I love you Spartacus" Curtis.

And you gotta love the tag line: "They trained him to kill for pleasure... but they trained him a little too well." Schwarzenegger only wishes he'd played such a badass. The show starts at 7PM, and tickets are just $5.
