Ridley Scott's Roman revenge epic — the general who became a slave, the slave who became a gladiator, and the movie every dad quoted for a decade. Five Oscars, including Best Picture, and a Hans Zimmer score that turned every commute into a chariot ride.
Rome, Paolo, the Trevi Fountain, and "What Dreams Are Made Of" sung at the International Music Video Awards. The 2003 movie was the first theatrical film ever spun from a Disney Channel show, the finale of Lizzie McGuire, and the moment Hilary Duff graduated from cable to the multiplex, opening second only to X2.
