First class film - one of the best.

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2006)

I saw 'Ben Hur' when I was 15 years of age and was amazed at the wonderful structure of the film. The acting by all, (how unfortunate Stephen Boyd was to miss out on 'Best supporting Actor') the majesty of the Music by Miklos Rosza, the beauty of the photography, the magnificence of the sets and the strong story line make this one of the best films of all time. Whilst 'Titanic" equaled the total of 'Oscars' won, that film did not win any for acting. Although there have been many advances in the technological sphere over the years, the presentation of this film is still amongst the best. One wonders just what the outcome may have been if computer technology had been utilized.
