Extract from movie "Gladiator", 2000
"Maximus The Merciful"
My favorite scene is the scene where he is declared "Maximus the Merciful" by the crowed. The reason that I choose this scene is because regardless from increasing popularity and further frustration of Commodus from that scene, I find that this moment is where he showed compassion and forgiveness as a leader, as well as a survivor. It was noble and mercy where he willing to put down his self-pride, lower himself as a normal human being and finally spare his enemy. Such quality should be reflected to everyone in our world nowadays which is very rare to find.
