The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964)
Gladiator (2000) 5 Oscars
Troy (2004)

Music by
Miklos Roszas: Ben-Hur Title Theme
Miklos Roszas: El Cid Love Theme
Hans Zimmer: Honor Him (from Gladiator)
Other Thoughts: The original version came out to about 20 minutes and had to drop Hans Zimmer Honor Him music due to licensingso I had to pick and choose. Why not more than 10 minutes? Its an epic :). El Cid love theme was as substitute for Ben-Hur love theme (I had technical problems of which, there are always many).

Thank you. I have loved these movies all my life. Your compilation is exquisite. I appreciate your time and effort in sharing these scenes with the world.

This conclusion is so moving. Each actor portrayed a character who was strong, good and an example of what a man should be. Spot on ending with Crowe returning to his family. So many emotional finales in such a short space of time! Beautifully done Doug, youve done the epic genre justice with this magnanimous tribute. I hope that every film lover out there gets to see this.
