6:28 that arrow hitting the sail originally was not planned but an extra's accident. they rewrote the scene on the spot and reedited it so the one arrow was a ceremonial one and the remaining arrows were supposed to follow.

@diddymuck Excalibur has Wagner, it is not a fair fight, really! :D Tough this score is still great!
-
Very badly done swordfight. Hack, hack, hack! Those swords could STAB.
-
@CiNeMaN512 Eric did all that, then Eric was the real Viking, not Einar.
-
this sword fight was the template for the final sword fight in Secret Of Nimnh almost to the second....making both movies awesome! ODIN!!!!

@spacepatrolman and kirk douglas got kidded over the years of the way he spoke; sctv did a number of immitations.
curtis and douglas re-united for SPARTICUS---cause thats what happened in old hollywood.
douglas and burt lancaster were in a lot of movies together, even spoofing their work in the last movie they made together.
lots of big time actors now days are a lot worse than curtis....at least curtis could do a good cary grant immitation in SOME LIKE IT HOT.

@monk22yrs tony curtis was in spartacus because he was the number one box office star of the moment he wasnt that great an actor
-
@CiNeMaN512 it would be too morally reprehensible to have your ending kirk douglas doesnt truelly love her because he had a girl in the beggining of the movie at home in norway thats better looking he just wants her cause tony curtis wants her you cant have vikings going around raping women and enslaving men and attacking nations
-
one of the more stirring final scores! beat only by the closing theme of Excalibur.

@kittenmouse23 I wish that neither died, & they could've ruled over the vikings as brothers, but I guess someone had to die there. lol to also consider that I was named after the viking king, Ragnar
Music by Mario Nascimbene, 1913-2002. Great movie, but let's also say cheers to the composer of this fabulous music.

Is anyone else but me pissed off with this ending. I mean seriously Einar should have lived and Eric should have died. A mere slave attacking Einar (royalty) with an hawk in the begining. then feeeding Einars father to the English, while in the process stealing the one girl Einar truly loves away from him. And to top it all off in the end when Einar shows him mercy Eric suckershots him in the gut. Erics an asshole, the wrong guy died.
