Download I Am Spartacus (Remix)
With Francine Stock
"I Am Spartacus" is one of the most famous lines in film history and Francine tells the turbulent backstory of that line and how it involved the so-called Hollywood witch-hunt, in which writers had to secretly change their names to get work.
She hears from actor Kerry Shale and historians Pamela Hutchinson and Colin Shindler.
