Indignation surrendered. And just in time

Rating: Null/10 (20 August 2001)

Heston returns 3 years post Moses in Cairo as the wealthiest man in the Province of Judaea in the Roman Empire. Stephen Boyd in his bread and butter role here, to my notion. Boyd portrays Masala, Centurion of the Roman Empire whose loyalty is to the emperor. Thusly his attempt is to crush his one time best friend, Ben - Hur. It backfired in the Chariot race. All the while a Silent Man whose face we could not see is watching over Ben Hur - sometimes face to face , sometimes from distance. Ben Hur then realizes thios man was just like him IN THAT He was also a wealthy man but became a slave.
"Father forgive them. They dont know what they have done." The silent faceless man did. I believe Ben Hur did as well.
