    I just want to know is this Judas the one who betrayed Jesus? And the 30-minute horse racing bunker, why technology can't replace the real thing, just read this paragraph to...

    Heston is one of the few actors who won the Oscar with a positive hero image (the gladiator many years later), and this film is also the only film that has been nominated for many performances. Prize...

    I'm ashamed, I haven't watched such a famous movie until now. It's really an epic blockbuster. From the appearance of the actors, to the set, to the lines, to the powerful music, all of them have an epic atmosphere. The carriage race was really exciting. It's hard to imagine that such a good film could be made more than 50 years ago, but the religious color is too strong, and we Chinese people can't understand...

    Half a century ago, people were very particular about making movies, at least they didn't wear anything on the...

    Based on Lou Wallace's novel of the same name, the film tells the story of the love-hate relationship between the Jewish Ben-Hur and the Roman commander Marcella, and his struggle against the oppression of the Roman Empire. The most exciting part of the film is the chariot race that will forever carry the history of film. There were 15,000 extras in this scene, 18 tanks were built, and the entire scene took five weeks to shoot, and the unexpected performance of the stuntmen was preserved in the...

    An epic about Judas. Whether it is the pomp and luxury of Rome, or the thrill of the carriage chase, even the scene of Jesus being nailed to the cross at the end, we have to praise the production level in 1959. Many passages still seem so alive and...

    The epic masterpiece, the magnificent scene is not inferior to today's blockbuster. . . Love is always a more powerful and charismatic force than violence,...

    It was really shocking. Especially the part of the two-carriage race, which is said to be completely real shooting, resulting in the death of some staff....

    Such epic works with grand and magnificent layouts that can be detailed and detailed will probably never appear in this era of fast-food movies. . ....

  • Etha 2022-03-22 09:01:21

    Well, 11 Oscars for its grand war scene... but what's up with this IMDb Top 250 title? ! But from another point of view, a blockbuster in 1959, without any computer effects, is stronger than any blockbuster in the 21st...

    Not the Revenge of the Jewish Prince, but How Ben-Hur Returns to Ben-Hur

    The new version of "Ben-Hur" has been released. Whether you have seen it or not, it has become a fact that the new version has a bad reputation, so it is business to look at the old version and appreciate the classics.
    The shortest version is 212 minutes, but it is only three and a half hours. I...

    The Christian Propaganda Behind Vengeance

    Ben Hur is not smooth. Although he used to be a Jewish prince and is now an aristocrat, he has no rights and no army in his hands, so he has to fight with the local tribune.

    Ben Hur did not understand the essence of the question that Masala asked him to support or oppose. This question is: do you...

Ben-Hur quotes

  • Centurion: There's a Jew outside. He wants to see the Tribune Messala.

    Messala: I assume he has a name.

    Centurion: [sneeringly] He says he's a prince, Prince Judah Ben-Hur.

    Messala: [loud and quickly] Then treat him like one!

    [quietly]

    Messala: Tell him I'll join him.

    [the centurion starts to leave, and Messala shouts again]

    Messala: CENTURION!

    [Again quietly]

    Messala: This was his country before it was ours. Don't forget that.

    Centurion: Yes, Tribune.

    [the centurion then goes out]

    Sextus: That was very wise. This Judah Ben-Hur is the son of one of the wealthiest families in Judea.

  • [Quintas Arrius wakes up, chained, on ship debris; the chain is held by Judah]

    Quintus Arrius: Why did you save me?

    Judah Ben-Hur: Why did you have me unchained?

    [they struggle briefly, Arrius is overpowered; he looks at the shackle on Judah's ankle]

    Quintus Arrius: What is your name, Forty-One?

    Judah Ben-Hur: Judah Ben-Hur.

    Quintus Arrius: Judah Ben-Hur. Let me die.

    Judah Ben-Hur: [ironically] We keep you alive to serve this ship. Row well, and live.
