>>> And I want a REAL Chariot Race, not a CGI Chariot Race!
The scene where the rider flips over the front of the chariot before climbing back in (don’t recall if that was the Ben Hur character) was actually a near death scene of the stuntman, but they kept the cameras rolling.
The Stuntmen (and Stuntwomen) are the real stars of Hollywood. I LOVE old-time special effects, make-up, and stunts.
It makes the movies so much more interesting and exciting.
Just my humble opinion, of course.
