The following clip is the deleted scene from 1960 film Spartacus. Although this scene was omitted from the original release (for obvious reasons) and didn't surface until a 1991 restored version, for many it marks a cinematic milestone. It's almost as iconic a moment as the 'I'm Spartacus' scene.
Where else would you find such masterful dialogue as this:
Where else would you find such masterful dialogue as this:
Marcus Licinius Crassus: Do you eat oysters?
Antoninus: When I have them, master.
Marcus Licinius Crassus: Do you eat snails?
Antoninus: No, master.
Marcus Licinius Crassus: Do you consider the eating of oysters to be moral and the eating of snails to be immoral?
Antoninus: No, master.
Marcus Licinius Crassus: Of course not. It is all a matter of taste, isn't it?
Antoninus: Yes, master.
Marcus Licinius Crassus: And taste is not the same as appetite, and therefore not a question of morals.
Antoninus: It could be argued so, master.
Marcus Licinius Crassus: My robe, Antoninus. My taste includes both snails and oysters.
