One of my all time favorite films!!! I still grip the armrests in this scene:
And the ship galley's scene with the rhythmic beat of hammer to block ... "ramming speed!" However, my favorite scene remains this one:
Fabulous - CLASSIC - film. And Charlton Heston remains one of the best actors in Hollywood history. Here is my Moses!
Easter blessings to you and yours!
My favorite scene in Ben Hur, along the scene where Jesus gives water to Judah Ben Hur, is the crucifixion scene. The healing of Judah's sister and mother amidst the storm tears me up. Judah recounting the sword being taken out of his hand, figuratively, at the foot of the cross is breathtaking.
And the scene at the end as the Shepherd takes the flock of sheep past Golgotha, at sunrise is priceless.
