We PULL BACK to reveal BLOOD spewing in slow motion as a ROMAN GUARD lazily flies through the FRAME, dying from massive wounds. RAMP TO NORMAL SPEED as he crashes to the ground, dead. THREE MORE GUARDS rush in, stepping over their fallen comrade to confront the cause of his brutal end. SPARTACUS greets them, his sword drawing fresh blood. He moves with deadly purpose, striking the Guards down in a gory display. NOBLE ROMANS scream as they rush to flee the slaughter. Spartacus ignores them, bellowing for the only man he seeks. SPARTACUS Batiatus! A threat. A challenge. A promise of impending doom... INT. TROPHY ROOM - BATIATUS' VILLA - NIGHT (EP 113 SEASON 1) [MATERIAL SHOT IN SEASON 1] Batiatus hustles through the carnage with Lucretia, Domitia, Numerius, and Aurelia.

Raleigh Louise McReynolds Beth Holmgren John Kasson Chad Bryant © 2010 Marko Dumanĉić ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARKO DUMANĈIĆ: Rescripting Stalinist Masculinity: Contesting the Male Ideal in Soviet Film and Society, 1953-1968 (Under the direction of Dr. Donald J. Raleigh) This dissertation traces the evolution of a new type of cinematic masculinity in the fifteen years following Joseph Stalin‘s death and examines how controversial post-Stalinist movie heroes became a battleground for the country‘s postwar values and ideals. During the 1950s and 1960s, postwar Soviet leadership faced the kinds of sociopolitical ruptures that were also evident on the other side of the Iron Curtain; the Communist Party leadership struggled to moderate the combined destabilizing effect of consumerism, a recalcitrant youth (sub)culture, and Cold War anxieties. Nowhere was the angst of the postwar period more obvious than in the way Soviet filmmakers portrayed their movie heroes. Unlike their hard- bodied and zealous Stalinist counterparts, post-Stalinist protagonists conveyed physical imperfection and ideological ambivalence. Stalin‘s successor, Nikita Khrushchev initially promoted the turn to more realistic protagonists as part of his de-Stalinization campaign.
