| Summary: | The major problem of this study is to elucidate the struggle of Spartacus reflected in Robert Dornhelm’s Spartacus movie. The objectives of the study are; to analyse the structural elements of the movie and to analyse the character of Spartacus based on Marxist perspective.

It consists of characterization, setting, point of view, plot, style, theme, intent/ message, and cast. Meanwhile, technical elements involve mise-en-scene, cinematography, editing, and sound is analyzed to bring the readers understand totally.
