    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Pontius Pilate (Frank Thring) takes his seat in the arena as the chariot racers make one lap around the racetrack with uniform precision before they begin the race.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    This 1959 version of Lew Wallace's best-selling novel, which had already seen screen versions in 1907 and 1926, went on to win 11 Academy Awards. Adapted by Karl Tunberg and a raft of uncredited writers including Gore Vidal and Maxwell Anderson, the film once more recounts the tale of Jewish prince Judah Ben-Hur (Charlton Heston), who lives in Judea with his family during the time that Jesus Christ was becoming known for his "radical" teachings. Ben-Hur's childhood friend Messala (Stephen Boyd) is now an ambitious Roman tribune; when Ben-Hur refuses to help Messala round up local dissidents on behalf of the emperor, Messala pounces on the first opportunity to exact revenge on his onetime friend. Tried on a trumped-up charge of attempting to kill the provincial governor (whose head was accidentally hit by a falling tile), Ben-Hur is condemned to the Roman galleys, while his mother (Martha Scott) and sister (Cathy O'Donnell) are imprisoned. But during a sea battle, Ben-Hur saves the life of commander Quintus Arrius (Jack Hawkins), who, in gratitude, adopts Ben-Hur as his son and gives him full control over his stable of racing horses. Ben-Hur never gives up trying to find his family or exact revenge on Messala. At crucial junctures in his life, he also crosses the path of Jesus, and each time he benefits from it. The highlight of the film's 212 minutes is its now-legendary chariot race, staged largely by stunt expert Yakima Canutt. Ben-Hur's Oscar haul included Best Picture, Best Director for the legendary William Wyler, Best Actor for Heston, and Best Supporting Actor for Welsh actor Hugh Griffith as an Arab sheik.

    The chariot race, including the set and the music, is just fabulous movie making. I wonder what ancient Romans would think if a time machine existed that could take them to a 20th century theater showing the movie!

      The Romans would think that the movie maker was an idiot. Where do I begin? All the chariots start from behind starting gates. The chariots stay in lane until they reach a zone where they can break like in middle distance track races. The chariots are made of wicker baskets; these type of heavy chariot would exhaust the horses by the first of the seven circuits. There would not be soldiers on the circuit for safety reasons. The chariots were standardised so that nobody had unfair advantage. There would not be this fanfare before each race. There was the initial religious events, then many chariot races. The chariot drivers had the reigns tied around their bodies, using their body to guide the chariots around the circuit. The chariot racers had to balance their nasty tactics of winning against the emotions of a crowd, because if the crowd was displeased, the race would be aborted and rerun.

    Ben Hur and so many other great productions of the golden age of cinema. Without the exaggerated features of today's computers and their applications. Clean images, laborious and expensive scenes. Always filled with the talent of their stars. Nowadays everything has become easier for directors, producers and 'stars'. Ben Hur é um, assim como tantas outras grandes produções da era de ouro do cinema. Sem os recursos exagerados dos computadores e seus aplicativos dos dias de hoje. Imagens limpas, cenas trabalhosas e caras. Sempre recheadas pelo talento de seus astros. Nos dias de hoje tudo ficou mais fácil para os diretores, produtores e 'estrelas'.

      At the end of race in thanks Judah hugs those magnificent horses (nice touch that). Take a close look at them. They had been run and run hard. Their coats were black with sweat, their nostrils flaring, their eyeballs bulging. That's the real deal; CGI still can't do that. We may not notice it at first, but it registers. That race actually happened, it was real.

    When I was a wee shaver back in the early 1960s, in Chicago, IL. WBKB Channel 7, (long before it became WLS). Because of the 'popularity' of the Hollywood epics of the day, like Ben Hur, The Ten Commandments,, and the like,, The station would run a lot of 2nd teir Gladiator movies, on Saturday Nights. They used this music track, for their "Gladiator Theater". Until I actually got to watch Ben-Hur, in the theater, in 1970, that I learned what the Music I heard when I was a kid, was really CALLED, and what movie it actually came from.

    It's hard enough to get five outriders to stay in such a precise formation. Nine chariots, with four horses abreast each, keeping their line and making two turns around an end post rather than a modern racetrack wide turn.... All the drivers had to be trained for this, since four abreast is such an uncommon hitch, and training the horses for it might have been the easy part! I wonder what a real post parade was like at a circus. If it was anything like this, given that the chariots were all competitors and wouldn't have practiced this together, it would have been incredible.
    This scene, to me, is more of an accomplishment than the race itself.

    En Fanfares o Circus Fanfares primer segundo sobre todo , suena Preludio de Ben Hur( Rozsa ) ; Circus Fanfares es otra versión de procesión de los carros de ben hur, como lo son :Fanfare for Circus Parade : EN CORNETAS LA VERSIÓN CORTA DE PARADE OF THE CHARIOTEERS: Y QUE SUENA EN PARADE OF THE CHARRIOTEERS.
    En la Re-grabación Carlo Savina de 1960 Parade Of The Charrioteers o Procesión de los Carros: inicia con Fanfares o Circus Fanfares ; y se repite en el Soundtrack Procesión de los carros. LO MISMO EN ESTE RERECORDING.
    Circus Parade o Parade of the Charrioteers: Ben Hur- Rozsa. El nombre varia de acuerdo a la Colección: OST o BSO oficial conducido por el propio Miklos Rozsa. Pero para rerecording Carlo Savina , 1960, es Parade of The Charrioteers o Parade of the charriot. Igulmente para rerecording Rozsa: 1977. y demás Rerecordings.
    Se parece mucho el Tema de Star Wars- Williams: The Imperial March a El inicio de Parade of The Charrioteers Ben Hur-Rozsa para Rerecording Carlo Savina, que igual se repite en Parade of The Charrioteers Ben Hur-Rozsa OST Oficial 1959 Orchestra MGM. Ben Hur-Rozsa Rerecording Carlo Savina 1960. Ben Hur-Rozsa Rerecording Miklos Rozsa 1977: Que es el Prelude Ben Hur-Rozsa Tema de Ben Hur; que se repite en: El Inicio Finale Ben Hur-Rozsa. El inicio The Sea Battle Sequences Part Three. The Burning Desert. Messala Revenge. The Lepper Search for The Christ, Ben Hur-Rozsa. Misma Parte que Rozsa repite en su The Cid-Rozsa Prelude Tema The Cid; misma parte Rodriguo's Doubts - Death of The Cid. Y que Rozsa utiliza en su Inicio e su Hail Galba Quo Vadis Rozsa; y que repite en su Inicio de Prelude Knights of The Round Table -Rozsa. Misma parte también Fanfare o Circus Fanfare From Ben Hur-Rozsa, inicio. similarmente en el caso Williams está Partitura posiblemente la repite en su Superman Theme y Score Superman Williams donde se repita; Por ser Superman y Star Wars Temática Extraterrestre. Valgame aclarar que puede ser una remembranza del Maestro John Williams de su Maestro el Maestro Miklos Rozsa. No un Plagio. Nunca un Plagio, que igual no podría asegurar.

    No CGI, just 36 horses choreographed into one lap around the "coliseum," which is a miracle in and of itself that they could get it on screen. Add in one of the most recognizable film scores of all time and you get what can easily be called an epic scene in an epic movie.

Man's hopeless, "catch 22" type of life is given meaning and made rich with the faith-filled qualities of joy perseverance, fellowship, loyalty and forgiveness.

These films can't be remade. Especially the scene of Jesus and Ben Hur when only his back is shown. Great direction. Ultimately it's the talent level of the people that matters. Not technology or special effects alone.

      Harry Belafonte and Martin Luther King enlisted Charlton Heston and many other Hollywood stars to march with them to Selma, Alabama, a few years later. They would make world headlines when the yokel dokel police attacked some of them with tear gas, batons, dogs and fire hoses in front of movie cameras. It alerted the whole population to just how much brutality was used to enforce Jim Crow laws. Before that date, only people of color knew all this. After Selma, everybody knew and nobody had an excuse to ignore what was going on any longer. In the midst of all this, it was probably Charlton Heston's finest moment. Many years later, when he told the world he was retiring because of mild dementia, he made a point of saying how proudly he and his friends marched at Selma with MLK.
