    The 1960 film 'Spartacus' gave English one of its most quoted scenes: the Romans offer to spare the captured men if they identify their leader, and one after another every man stands up and says 'I am Spartacus' so that none of them can be picked out. To this day, when many people all claim the same identity to protect one person, English speakers call it an 'I am Spartacus' moment. That scene, worth knowing, was written for the film, not recorded by history.
