Maximus: I once knew a man who said "Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back."
Commodus: I wonder, did your friend smile at his own death?
Maximus: You must know. He was your father.
Mistakes
In the scene where the Praetorians attacks the gladiator's quarters and the gladiators are forced to fight in order to hide Maximus' escape, Hagen is shot full of arrows. Note the blocky silhouette of his torso area? What kind of padding is he wearing under that canvas jerkin? See more...
Trivia
The film was filmed in Malta and many of the extras are Maltese. In the scene where Maximus is escaping through the tunnels to get away from the Romans, he finds Cicero on a horse with his neck in a noose. This apparently almost killed Tommy Flanagan (the actor who played Cicero) as the horse was restless during filming. This is because the scene is in a not very-well lit area underneath the entrance to the capital city of Malta and was filmed at 2 am. Apparently some drunkards walking home from drinking in a local bar decided to urinate there, and upset the horse. See more...
When we get to the comedy play fight between Maximus and Commodus, we look at the front of the stage and we see the actor playing Maximus is standing in the middle of the stage and the one playing Commodus on the right side. When we get a view from back of the stage 'Maximus' is standing on the left side of the stage and 'Commodus' in the middle. They have suddenly switched sides.
