Marcus Aurelius talk with him self about death and facing his on mortality when he know his son Commodus and the Roman empire isn't ready for his passing into the afterlife. Deep deep.

Funny how Richard Harris was to play Commodus in this film. ONly to play Marcus Aurelius in Gladiator.

Great scene, the best of the movie I think, that of the soliloqui, with the echo... And Guinness look like the real emperor, very much...

I agree. Besides, I found very ingenious the way the conspirators carry on the regicide, through an unsuspected blind man who gives the emperor poisoned fruit carved with a poisoned blade... An amazing idea, and a perfect murder!

The character that Mel Ferrer played - that of the blind freedman Cleander was a real person at this time.But,he was never involved in any assassination of Marcus Aurelius ( who died in 181 AD of natural causes,AFAIK).But it was good editing to put it in the plot. For all that Cleander was one evil SOB.He was ironically put to death on the orders of Emperor Septimius Severus for treason.

According to what I've read over the past several years, Marcus Aurelius likely died of cancer.

Maybe the Plague from parthia was the culprit.

Yes, or a general breakdown because of bad health.

Alec Guiness a giant over the likes of Basil Rathbone, James Mason and Eric Portman.
