- This made-for-video documentary treats film fans to a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Ben-Hur, a classic which has seen many incarnations on the silver screen, but perhaps most notably as William Wyler's 1959 epic. Includes footage from all three film versions of the tale, as well as discussion of the impact they had on later filmmakers.
What also blows me away is the stunning acting, just amazing!
My favorite movie of ALL TIME !
👍👍 😊 🙏
This classic epic, suprtb cast, and the sountrak proved why it earned 11 Oscars it remains a masterpiece since its release.
Das größte filmische Meisterwerk der Kinogeschichte! Alles handgemacht in einer Zeit ohne digitale Hilfe. Beeindruckend von Anfang bis Ende mit einer unerreichbaren Orchestermusik, fabelhaften Bauten, wunderschönen Kostümen und ausgezeichneten Schauspielern. Ich verneige mich vor dieser Leistung. Ein Jahrhundertfilm für alle weiteren Generationen mit einer so großen sozialen Botschaft!
Ich erinnere mich nicht von dem Film in seiner Ganzheit, und es ist nicht wichtig, - aber gilt er als noch grösser als "Vom Winde verweht"?
Still one of my favourite movies of all time. Heston is the GOAT, every movie he's in in awesome.
I TOTALLY agree
I'm 87yre old. One of my prized possessions my original Ben Hur cd!
……have ALL the 33&third rpm LP’s which were ever released of its’ beautiful soundtrack………
My dvd one
Lucky you, dear 88 y o! I hope they will upload the whole film for us all to see for free soon. What is particularly precious in it to you? To me, it was the facial expression of the impact looking into the face of Jesus Christ made upon Judah Ben Hur, and how that military giúard denying Judah a drink of water in the heat along with the others, but not withstanding Jesus Christ's correction, being powerless before His I. Has Ben Hur lived for real? I haven't heard of him, so don't think so.
@@Medietos ……no, he wasn’t real. Just thought up by General Lew Wallace, for the book………
I was 12 and in grade six at a Catholic school when our class was taken to a Saturday matinee of Ben-Hur during its first run. To say it was a memorable experience for me would be an understatement. The film remains one of my top favourites and I have been listening to the majestic score ever since.
I hear you loud and clear.My parents took me and my siblings to a Drive in Theatre to see the Movie
Masterpiece of a film 🎥📽️
I love the 1959 version. A great film. One of my favorites.
Saw it in 3 vhs back in the 90s
This emotional rollercoaster wrecks me every time I see it.
Definitely a top 10 of all time. Right up there with Lawrence of Arabia and The godfather 1 and 2. Absolutely defined the modern epic film.

SPARTACUS....
When Masala says "the game, Judae, it goes on..." superb.
I feel Ben Hur was greatly favored and blessed by Heaven above.
Thank you so much for sharing this🙏🏿
You are welcome. This is a fantastic documentary that not many people know about
Only one word..Epic
Greatest movie of all time a mega classic
Best biblical film ever
Unmatched!
best film that stood the test of time
An amazing film.
Poor Ramon Navarro. Met such an ugly demise.
Ramon navarro's death at 69 was so shocking. Beaten by 2 brothers who posed as escorts from an agency offering him sex. They tortured him for 7 hours thinking he had loads of money in his home which he did not. Choked on his own blood from the beatings. Even more shocking was how the brothers were given life but paroled in just 7 years.
When a movie is so iconic it basically all but erases an already fine original from public consciousness you know it cannot have been made any better. Ladies and Gentlemen, Ben Hur (2016) is such a landmark.
When I asked my dad how it was, he said, "Loved Ben. Hated hur." Nyuck, nyuck.
Wonderfull

Never understood the context that Gore Vidal was going after with "Lovers Quarrel" and "emotional relationship" between the characters @31:36 can anyone explain this segment further?? Or why try to write it to imply? The fuse I think was from my pov was that Messala wanted power and his friend would not support him.
……for your answer, read Mr Heston’s autobiography, ‘In the Arena’………
When Vidal was called in to doctor the script, he made an attempt to try something different and bounce something different. This screenwriting is nothing new for the movies. Vidal, of course, was one of America's most famous GAY writers of the time. And it makes sense to at least view this objectively. There WERE, after all, homosexuals in the first century. Look at the famous toasting scene where Ben-Hur's and Messala's meet before sipping the, uh, the forbidden fruit of the vine.
@@williamsnyder5616 ……when Mr Charlton Heston was told about the ‘storyline’ that Vidal wanted to put into the script, he told Director Wyler, that he’d have no part in it. As Wyler didn’t want his leading actor walking off set, he dropped the ‘idea’ altogether………
Vidal was a snake.
Gay A Hole.
Dangerous example of Hollywood evil.
Titanc ben hur lord of the rings 11 oscars each one
But it is not the number of prizes that decides the greatness of a work of art. The judges may not have the sensibility to be the best judges. And there may be trends, prestige, money and policy involved in the nomination and decision. As good as Titanic is, it is not in the same class as Ben Hur. She was not a convincing heroine and not worthy of his sacrifice, at least to my feeling. What do you think of "Gone With the Wind"?
Glad story great movie timeless

1 Corinthians 15:1-4
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Maybe watch it again...
Please spanish subtitles of this important documentary BEN-HUR one of my favorites movies
Imho Boyd was a far superior actor to Heston and would have made an amazing Ben Hur. The narrator of this piece Christopher Plummer an amazing Mersala. Heston was never believeable being too detached, stiff and wooden. His love scenes are always cringeworthy. Similarly Liz Taylor ruined Cleopatra. She was an american broad to her very bones and Sophia Loren would have brought the exoticism and class the role so needed. Burton and Harrison were both superb.
……Boyd wasn’t even nominated for an ‘Oscar’. Mr Charlton Heston was, & won ‘Best Actor’, most deservedly so………
@@elizabethroberts6215 in your opinion not in mine. William Wyler had to take him to one side and said you are phoning it in. Very famous line from backstage. The fact that Depp has never been awarded an Oscar just shows the judging team don't always get it right.
Stephen should have won an Oscar for his performance but it was politics as usual in Hollywood. If Stephen had one, there would have been a huge frenzy the over shadowed Heston's win. That is the main reason he was not given an Oscar or allowed to even accept a statuette for any other actor in their absence. Still angers me to this day.
Wtf Heston was genius in that movie
