Working as a cameraman for PBS, I had the opportunity to visit Rózsa at his studio a year or so before he passed on. We hit it off very well, and he was quite friendly and open during the interview. One of the most thrilling moments was when he opened his safe and presented us with the original manuscript for "Ben Hur", which was bound in red silk. You can imagine what it was like to flip through it and read the score in his own hand. (I still get goosebumps when I remember it.) Of course when he realized that I could sight read his score, he opened up even more. "Would you like to know where I got my inspiration from?" he asked. Naturally, I did. He pressed a button and the curtains covering the entire northern side of his studio opened to reveal the San Gabriel Mountains, just above Glendale, in all their splendor. Touching that score was better than holding an Oscar. It was 2 of the most enjoyable hours I ever spent in Hollywood.
Shudders. I envy you!
Extraordinary that you got to meet him !
Miklos Rozsa is one of the greatest film music composer and his music always give the essence of human emotions. You are lucky person. God bless you.
Lucky you,thank you for your great story!!!😁🇬🇧
I envy you, to be there in that same room with one, if not the greatest composers of all time "praise be to jesus".
素晴らしい映画ですスペクタル全て最高です❤😊🎉
You see, in this world there are two kinds of people, my friend: Those who adore Miklós Rózsa music and those who are deaf.
I was a lucky man (film projectionist) to show this 'epic movie' in the wonderful and original 70MM format, 12 'heavy' reels, running with 2 PHILIPS TODD-AO DP70 projectors,
11 Oscars to Titanic was a joke.Half the movie is computer created.
Agreed
And you forgot lord of the rings the return of the king
Best Story, Best actors, Best music, Just BEN HUR 1959
4 de octubre de 2023. Se cumple un Centenario. Un Siglo del Nacimiento del Gran Charlton Heston. Mi Actor Favorito. Por Siempre.
You can feel it when it first starts
The power of older movies
You’re such a fling bore.
"Ben Hur" is not a film score, it is a whole world.
And sometimes the music in "Spellbound " and "The Lost Weekend" sound like it. When Don Birman is looking for his liquor bottle, I'm saying, "He's in the desert again!!"
Yes it's 1959 movie Still f classic these days
@@chrisroger8774 Ben Hur is the best movie e er made. You can find all the atributes you need for a great adventure. No movie can does it before and after.
@@arminv8169 it's great era for movies bk then 1930s to 1970s odd one after that ps King of kings 1961 1925even tho is silence movie and Ben Bur same1959 and1927/5 but new one sorry I think its a bit crap even good actors actresses
@@arminv8169 it's great era
I ' ve followed Ben Hur since I was a child. I consider Ben Hur as the best work written for the cinema ever seen. A wonderful soundtrack that is and will continue to be a gift to many who cherish Ben Hur.
I agree completely. I have done and feel the same and I'm nearly 70 years old. I had my Sunday school class of 13 and 14 year olds come to my home on a Saturday and watch it. I would quote some of the movie lines in my Sunday school lessons. "In his eagerness to save you, your God has also saved the Roman fleet", "Does that interest you 41? I can see that it does." "What has he done to merit this?" And so many more.
I think you are 100% correct in praising the script, because I did try to read Lew Wallace’s original work and had to admit that the novel wasn’t so good as I thought it should be.
William Wyler’s epic classic Ben-Hur won 11 Academy awards when there were only 12 categories. It is a monumental achievement as compared to Titanic and Lord of the Rings which won 11 Oscars when there are 18 categories. Ben-Hur’s achievement is historic and colossal. ✌️
And not to speak of the advanced technology available no w. photography is superb - i can still see the chariot race when I shut my eyes
Maybe I'm an old fashioned, but I, personally, cannot put Lord of the Rings alongside Ben Hur. I realize these films all bagged numerous Oscars, but the CGX of LOR seemed too busy and impersonal.
@@yaffayafo82 In fairness to *Lord of the Rings,* the trilogy couldn't have been done any other way. CGI was the only way to translate that story from page to screen without chopping the material to pieces (as John Boorman's notorious failed attempt at adapting it would have). Practical FX wouldn't have been nearly enough to pull off the task.
@@yaffayafo82 Hey, credit has to be given to the guys who worked their buns off for the special effects.
Très très beau film et très belle musique et acteurs exceptionnels
One of the greatest Hollywood composer of all time.He along with Alex North,Dimitri Tiomkin,Max Steiner,Aaron Copland,Bernard Hermann and Elmer Bernstein ruled Hollywood for many years.Undoubtly this is one of his best.Benhur was not a mere movie but dream project of William Wyler.👍👍👍👌
I'm a fan of Dimitri Tiomkin but I think, for example, that Ennio Morricone's soundtrack for the film "The mission" is an absolute masterpiece. For me the titans of film scoring are Williams, Morricone, Rosza and Tiomkin here in no particular order.
The Ben Hur version from 1959 is the best film of all time and will be forever ! Rip Chuck Heston ❤️🇩🇰
Yes, perfect.
Son hermosos tiempos que no volverán, la humanidad ha cambiado y se ha vuelto insensible y apática, sin visión del futuro.
Circus's parade and the chariots race, the best
@@casullas1 Y la batalla naval?
Great cast as well.
The greatest film score of all time, this is the masterpiece of movie history.
It truly is. Everything about it just says EPIC.
It's hard to argue with that.
In the spring of 1972 our high school band played a concert band arrangement of some of the music from Ben Hur. Learning it may me fall in love with movie sound track music, have been a fan of it ever since. And I still love the "big" musical sound of the movies of this time period.
OF...ALL...TIME!!!
Beyond Epic!!!
Life changing!!!
I was 8 or 9 years old when I saw Ben Hur in a movie theater with a wide screen when it 1st came out (i was born in November 1951) ~ the theater was filled with priest's & nun's & bus loads of youngster's taken out on field trip's in 7th & 8th grades from school.
It had a powerful effect on cementing my faith in Christianity!
Did you know that General Lew Wallace showed his script/book to an atheist & the atheist became a believer?!
Awesome fact; reinforces my faith & increases the value of this magnificent one of a kind film!
Miklos Rosa was born to compose this score; as Stephen Boyd was born to play Masala & Heston to be Ben Hur!
This story was not in the Bible; but It Could Have Been!
Greatest Film Ever Made!!!
An Epic Score by an Epic Composer for an Epic Movie
The greatest film score ever written! As much I am a John Williams fan, this has to be the most overwhelming epic and sweeping canvas of film music.
Absolutely right
I think Mr John Williams, being a genius also, thinks like everyone!!! Ben hur Soundtrack. The best of the best in the musical history !!!!! RC
Maybe John Williams agreed whit this
I don't believe in this or that being the greatest. Let us just enjoy those we consider great. That being said, what a marvelous film score this one is.
That final scene, where he's reunited with his healed mother and sister, chokes me every time.
I actually did not like that scene. I thought it was a very bad Deus Ex Machina that made no sense logically. It felt like the writer gave Ben-Hur a get out of jail free card, which felt forced.
Glad you liked it though.
@@markparkinson6947 But....it was literally Deus. God cured their leprosy. The miracle made total sense in the context of the story.
@@vladimirhorowitz I guess that makes sense. Just wasn’t a very enjoyable ending for me, because if you introduce the fact that people can be cured of their diseases, it makes me wonder why God chose to cure the people with leprosy at the very end of the film, as opposed to when they were first afflicted with it.
@@markparkinson6947 Haha but that's a religious/philosophical question, not a screenplay criticism! I'm not sure if that's what happens in the novel, but I'd like to read it eventually.
I think that's kind of like the Problem of Evil, right? If God can cure people of leprosy, why does God let anyone get leprosy? Why did God let Judea throw his wife and sister in prison in the first place, or let Judea go to the galleys? I interpreted the miracle as God's reward to Judea for 1) offering Jesus the water and repaying the favor and 2) rewarding Ben-Hur for opting to be a slave and embarking on this arduous journey when he could have had this nice cushy life in Rome as long as he sold out his own people.
@@vladimirhorowitz I think the question can be both philosophical/religious and a screenplay criticism. The two can sometimes hand in hand, especially with a movie like Ben-Hur, that provides philosophical and religious questions and answersto questions about the abilities and necessities of God.
As you suggest, the film leaves God’s motivation and intentions very ambiguously, which means you can pretty much interpret God’s actions however you want, which kind of defeats the purpose of a narrative, but if the point was to question the motivations of God in the story, than it was pretty successful.
Rosza's score for BEN-HUR is one of the grandest and melodious ever composed for a motion picture.
Yes
@ Brian Sandernbergh I absolutely agree agree.It's majestic stuff.
This movie was MGM's crown jewel. A masterpiece, in EVERY sense of the word.
Ha! You should see the film itself, I mean... this was before there was CGI crowds and sets! They didn't have any COMPUTERS in fact! Even if they did use computers, they probably would have to be the sizes of whole planets! They had to get all those extras (over 10,000), 300 sets scattered over 148 acres of land and nine sound stages, all built in Rome, and enough costumes to send Rarity into a whole month of sleep deprivation, and yet they still got enough to get Charlton Heston to play the title character! Man! 15 million dollars can get you a lot in 1959, I mean, this was a time when you could get a hamburger for just... What? 15 cents? If I could get back in time, I'd bring with me three quarters and see the movie in theaters myself (tickets back then costed only 68 cents). But still, I say the score matches the film's scope. Man, Hungary's got lots of talented people.
Well dont forget El Cid or Quo Vadis soundtracks!
Casi me atrevería a jurar que Ben Hur es la mejor película de la historia , pues en la misma se conjuga : música , escenografía , actuación , belleza , amor , traición , dolor ,etc , etc . No cabe dudas que éste filme fué lo mejor en su época y lo es en la actualidad .
Es cierto es arte puro y sublime, creo que ni lo que el viento se llevo, ni el padrino ni casablanca ni titanic ni el señor de los anillos han llegado a tal nivel de magistralidad
Es la mejor!
Si para mi lo es, no hay ni habra otro film igual con él me e acercado más a nuestro señor y aún lloro al verla
@@vielkaramirez3587 SÍ !!!! 🥲🥲😢😥😢😥😢😥
O melhor de toda a história do cinema. Merecidos os 11 Oscars que recebeu.
My favorite score of all time. A masterpiece in every sense of the word.
And GONE WHIT THE WIND ? I am BRAZILIAN ok ?
Did you ever heard The Ten Commandment's score? Do it!

I agree youre right it is sublime
si è bello,ma le musiche del maestro Morricone non hanno eguali
Gran Dios!!!! Que tal música se ma eriza la piel cuando la escucho, me parece estar viendo la película , yo tenía 10 años cuando fué filmada, y ahora tengo 73 años y sigo viéndola cada año en semana santa, mi familia y yo nunca nos cansamos de verla, para admirar al gran Charlton Heston
I grew up watching this, Ben Hur is the only movie that makes me cry like a baby the beautyful way the protray the crusifixtion of Jesus never seems to not make me weep

Todo lo mejor en esa película...de mis favoritas tanto actores, historía, música, lugares y su conexión con Jesús.....es una hermosa pelicula!!!!!
I love you too Nancy
Ben Hur was or may have been the greatest film of all time with one of the best actors of all time Mr. Charlton Heston. a great great actor of film and screen. he was gifted and talented. and a sports man.
he was always in shape,and had to be for the demand he also had on his body,in films.and stage actor.God Bless you always Chuck.
Finally, one of the most requested scores is here! Miklós Rózsa’s magnum opus and one of the (literally) greatest film scores of all time, even featuring instruments the composer specially let built for the recording sessions, based on his researches in Rome.
Originally it was planned to publish this video earlier this year but I thought that now is the perfect time. Christmas and on the jump to 2019, which will mark the 60th anniversary of the movie.
As big and untouchable it is, it had to be put into an exceptional 20 minutes presentation. Many popular cues, such as the Overture and Star Of Bethlehem are featured here, but I focused more on the great but lesser known cues to convey the feeling of the epic journey Ben Hur had to take, such as the fantastic Fertility Dance, Farewell To Rome, The Procession To Calvary and the outstanding Sea Battle sequence, where the orchestra performs Rózsa’s music with such an energy and as striking as the scenery for which it was written for. Also, I have to say that the beloved “Jesus Theme”, could not be featured here more than two small times, during copyright reasons. The famous Parade Of The Charioteers is not featured here, too, because the cue is unfortunately one of the so few(!) that did not survive in good audio quality. So, I included Panem Et Circenses, instead. I hope that you enjoy this shortened, but no less epic journey Miklós Rózsa invites you to!
Tankyou for soundtrack in ben hur fantastic movies god movies. Merry crismas for me and México
Oh my Lord (Pun intended) you did it! This is my favorite score of all time and it means the world to give Miklos Rozsa's magnum opus a first-class treatment! It means even more that you released it at the most appropriate time of the year! Thank you so much!
Diese Musik gibt mir Gänsehaut .... Thank You Fred for this x-mas Gift
God bless you for this lovely present, Fred. My WWII Army dad just went Home, and my brother gave me dad's original soundtrack. Merry Christmas, brother.
Unlock 41... One of the best scenes in the movie 🙏❤️
Ben Hur es una completa joya: actuaciones, música, escenarios, obra literaria. Fue filmada en una época gloriosa del cine. Una nueva versión jamás se le podía ni acercar, aun con toda la tecnología de hoy.
Aju de CT de ,00 .,,,,,,,,,,,
Las tecnologías actuales anularía ésa magia que ésta película emana, mezcla de espectacularidad, historia, religiosidad, los sentimientos del ser humano. Ésta película marcó nuestras vidas yo a nuestra generación para bien. Gracias a quienes fueron parte de éste proyecto y realidad.
the music puts you right there in that period
When I saw this motion picture in 1959 I haven't forgot in all that time how this made me fill. Thank GOD we have motion Pictures and music sound tracks to listen to for we will never see or hear it's likes again. This wonderful movie and sound track brings real talent and true artistry which we will never see in this day and age , (OUTSTANDING )
I saw this movie together with my Dad when i was 10 yrs old in the biggest Theatre in my hometown (with two balcony, big entrance etc) in 1974 and it was the biggest thing i can remember. This year i invited my dad at easter to watch this Movie on Blue Ray again and only for this i bought a new 66 " flat screen TV. Because its our most favorite movie and you cant watch Ben Hur on a small screen. This nice old man turns 87 this year and i dont know how long we can be together. Maybe we can share another big movie this year on Christmas and watch The Ten Commandments.
You saw this in theaters? Man I would have given anything to have been there in 1959 with the crowd, discussing the movie at intermission in the lobby while getting popcorn.
Every time when there is the theme plays the presence of our Lord, it put cold shivers in me! I love this soundtrack. Without the soundtrack there is no movie! Ben Hur is one of the best epics of all times!
You speak for me also. Divinely inspired work if ever there was one !
Masterpiece movie. Masterpiece music. And Heston. Wow! I don’t know how many times I’ve watched it. Never get tired of this awesome moving story. And the emotional, ultra - powerful soundtrack is for me one of the greatest most inspiring, and awesome musical creations regardless of genre.
Same here! ❤😊
I cannot think of a movie that conveys such amazing history and the music, is epic. I was born in 1959, the year Ben Hur came out. The score is utterly amazing. Every detail. Nothing left to chance. One watches the movie, sees and hears the actors, the action, but it is this beautiful score that keeps everything moving along. Everything about this movie, the actors, the scenery, the messages, the various stages, the costumes and of course, the music is of the highest standards and quality.
The movie itself is my personal favorite. My favorite scene. The chariot racing. Which was done in absolute stunning detail. So many scenes were amazing, but it was, in the end this most beautiful score that made it all come completely together. 🌹
Miklós Rózsa um dos melhores compositores do tempo do cinema de ouro
Excelencia músical de todos los tiempos.
Una maravilla irrepetible e incomparable.
Me deleito escucharla una y otra vez.
Un tesoro.
Banda sonora magistral,apoteósica,sublime de la mas compleja y grandeza musical que hace de "BEN HUR" una de las más grandes producciones cinematográfica de todos los tiempos. Imposible de superar.
Estoy. En. Delicioso. Éxtasis. Que. Prodijo. Músical. !
Por todo lo que es una película (actores, banda sonora, vestuario, escenografía, etc.), no creo que sea una de las grandes producciones cinematográficas, es simple y sencillamente La Mejor.
One could run out of adjectives trying to convey the sweeping grandeur of Rozsa's magnificent overture and film score. I believe it to be the perfect blending of music and story.
Hearing this magnificent score brings back that great image of Heston standing tall with Hawkins on the makeshift raft in the high sea.....WOW. ...Baba Long Beach Ca
A century from now, people will still wonder at this amazing score from the epic "Ben Hur."
Hence, needs to be preserved for posterity.
This movie (and its wonderful soundtrack) was part of our Christmas trilogy with my late Dad. Every christmas we watched Ben Hur, The Thief of Bagdad and The Time Machine together. :) Good memories.
Wich ones...? I hope the originals with Sabu and Taylor...
@@drhkleinert3245 , same for me they get my preference. The 1960 version is so common compare to the Korda version !
@@drhkleinert3245 Well, that's the british Remake.
@@Ratchet2431 I believe it is an Italian remake.
I would rank miklos score for the thief of Baghdad every bit as great as ben her. There is an innocent freshness In scenes like after sabu steals the keys and the 8 arm statue coming to life. So many different instruments used. I miss that in his more later films.
Best Overture in the history of movie cinema.
"This mix is timeless. I’ve heard this one countless times
There will never be a time like the epics, songs and movies. This bring tears to my eyes listening to the music of Ben hur!!! This man who create this had truly a gift from God. Thanks and God bless you!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😉😄
Nuestros padres crecieron con esta película... nuestros hijos aún lo disfrutan... no cabe duda que hicieron un gran trabajo que no caduca y envejece muy bien
Since my childhood I see this movie and even today I'm listening to it's music.... There's nothing like Ben Hur music...
Hermoso el tema músical del inolvidable film " Ben Hur ", con el magnífico actor Charlton Heston.
This movie was made in 1959 with the greatest technology availeble at that time 70mlm film 6 track sound system glorious production a perfect cast superb music score by doctor Rozsa and mr Wyler superb direction made this film one of the greatest achievments in world cinema a FLOWLESS motion picture and a great gift to humanity Charlton Heston at the peak of his artistry in a sublime perforfmance it is my most beloved film ever I was addicted to films since I was 7 I am one year short of 80 and still love movies
This masterpiece of Miklos Rosza will sit forever with the best classical music on this planet ! Makes one feel Divine providence is at hand !!
Una de las mejores bandas sonoras, de la historia del séptimo arte, una auténtica maravilla.
Majestuosa y exquisita sonorización.
This is absolutely the most beautiful music and the moove Ben Hurr the best of all time.
I think if you grew up in the 1970s, you would have heard one of Miklós Rózsa’s scores at one time or another, whether it was that of El Cid, King of Kings, or Ben Hur. The magnitude of the score is difficult to put into words even.
There is a magic of Miklós Rózsa’s scores; that is they have the effect of exuding the mood of the time(s) they portray. If you could transport back in time and play one of his scores, you would be forgiven to think that they would not be out of place. 🎼❤
Every one is in unity of this one and only timeless piece of film music capturing history and emotion Nothing has ever equally the magnificence soul stirring score Miklos you were and are a wonderful example of humanity and ultimate emotion in film history Listen to the angels in the original version of the score in The finally God bless you M R Your ultimate royalty in film composers
King of Kings, Spartacus, Quo Vadis, The Ten Commandments, and Ben Hur define the epic film.
I'm a Sucker for "Cleopatra" ..... That also has a Great Score! .... Her Entrance into Rome is Worth the Price of Admission!
Mill's Rozsa also wrote the score for King of Kings and Quo Adis however Spartacus was composed by Alex North while Elmer Bernstein did The Ten Commandments.
@@jamesalexander5623 Cleopatra was scored by Alex North.
A Magnificent film score!
True, right up there among the greatest film scores.It's extraordinary work by Miklos Rozsa.
This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful movies ever made. With William Wyler directing and Miklos Rozsa composition of absolute gorgeous music , Charlton Heston , Stephen Boyd and a cast of thousands an iconic film was made that will last thru the ages to come. As a child my parents took my 2brothers and myself to see this “wonder
Of a film... took away my breathe back then, still does today.
The chariot race scene is phenomenal, considering it’s now iconic, and considering the movie itself was made in 1959 unbelievable , but like our parents always said if William Wyler made a film you can be rest assured “ you will get the best that movie making has to offer” thank you Mr Wyler for always making my parents so happy with all your films including Some Like It Hot, one of their favorites my brothers and parents are gone now, but the glorious memories live on.
Undoubtedly, a very, very beautiful and inspired soundtrack, that perfectly complements an epic movie. Miklós Rózsa, what a great composer!
Maybe the best movie of all time
I’ve had the honor of watching it in theaters for the 60th anniversary of the film, and I have never heard anything so masterfully beautiful. I’ve watched it from my tv which is entirely a different feeling, but when you see it in the theater, I could not stop crying and was in awe.
AAAHHH!!! EPIC OF EPICS INDEED !!!! SEEN THIS MOVIE MILLIONS OF TIMES !!!! TIMELESS!!! INDEED R.I.P. TO ALL INVOVLED IN MAKING OF " BEN HUR" 1959. AND THE SUPER GREAT CASTING TOO!! AND THE THUNDEROUS MUSIC OF MILKLOS ROZSA. R.I.P. TO HIM . TRANSPORTED TO A.D. 33. FROM U.K. (2023)
It is one of my favourite classical piece this movie will never get old it remains evergreen
I first saw the movie ben hur in 1970 in a theatre l was 10 years old then l saw as a teenager when l was 16 years old l am now 61 years l am going to see it again in big theatre in new york city at the end of April 2019. It will playing un cut in many theaters
I wish I could see it on the big screen. My Father's favorite movie of all time.
@@mohammedakram4529 it is one of my favorites. Ben hur.
Esta película es una de las mejores de la historia, y las mas dulce y sublime, donde los valores cristianos toman un rol muy importante en la trama, enseñando muchas cosas como el amor, el perdón, la esperanza, la fe y el amor real del señor Jesucristo, que ahora se ven muy pocos en las películas modernas de Hollywood, podrán salir muchos Ben Hur con efectos especiales modernos, pero no superan ese sabor sublime y glorioso de la espiritualidad y el amor al Señor y al Prójimo. Una Obra maestra, un retrato de Cristo.
Que gran comentario 👍🏻👌🏻
el Ben Hur de 2016 también tiene méritos... sobre todo la escena final del perdón de Judá a Messala Severus eso si fue épico.
Seen the damn movie fifty times, can't get enough of it.
One of my all time favourite films over the last 60 years, the music is unforgettable & forever 🙏
GRANDIOSIDAD DE PELÍCULA, QUÉ MARAVILLA...NO ME CANSO NUNCA DE VER ÉSTA PEDAZO DE OBRA MAESTRA DEL CINE.
Música como esta es difícil de superar.
I'm a big fan of soundtracks, en passant a fellow countrymen of Miklós Rózsa (He arrived to the States from Hungary...)
I heard a lot of soundtrack albums - at least from 1000 movies and games - but with good heart and confidence I can tell Ben Hur's ost is one of the most complete, greatest, detailed, emotional, etc soundtrack of history. I cannot count the positive markers...
With all due respect I have to ask a question from those who doesn't like these tunes: "Guys, what's the matter with you?" :)
At this moment I am working and concentrating on other things, but while I am listening to this I have the feeling I am actually watching this magnificient film. It is the combination with this music what makes is so powerful!
MIKLO ROZSAS: "BEN HUR"
ABSOLUTAMENTE MUSICA EXQUISITA, UN ARTE MUSICAL
PRECIOSO!!! UN COMPOSITOR INIGUALABLE!!! BELLA ORQUESTRA!! MIL GRACIAS!!!

The most beautiful music of all cinema history!
Ben-Hur a great and classic movie epic and christian movie.
Soundtrack marked by Rosza.
11 Oscars and saved MGM from broke.
Heston became the hero from epic movies.
The chariot scene with no CGI!!
@@putinscat1208 They mention a chariot scene in the parody of biblical epic movies in HAIL, CAESAR! If you haven't seen it, watch it. Even the music is an overdone, exaggerated parody of biblical movie music.
ruclips.net/video/j9rXT8YiZhU/видео.html
@@The22on You want me to listen to some parody music of the great Ben Hur soundtrack?
For clarity, it's not a Christian movie but a movie about Christianity. The subtitle of Lew Wallace's book is A Tale of the Christ and that certainly seeks to proselytize readers but not the film.
Sadly, producer Sam Zimbalist died in Rome during filming of sequences there.
Still the only posthumous Best Picture Oscar awarded. His Oscar was accepted by his wife Mary Zimbalist.

Ben Hur es una película que representa el séptimo arte en su estado puro y más sublime ,sus 11 Óscar's son más que merecidos, ni con la tecnología que se tiene hoy en día no pueden lograr superar el clásico de 1959 , jamás lo harán , apenas tengo 28 años la ví por primera vez a los 18 años y la tengo como mi película favorita de todos los tiempos 💪 ,.

A great score to a great motion picture I was just 2 years old when this masterpiece of cinematic greatness was released on November 17, 1959. This film has become a holiday classic on Turner Classic Movies. Happy 60th Anniversary to this piece of cinematic history and Happy Easter 2019.
La mejor y grande obra del septimo arte, cuando el cine era cine; grandes actores, directores, musicos, argumentistas, compositores y grandes profesionales de la actuacion; que tiempos aquellos; se volvera a repetir mas alla?
Es muy dificil conseguir lo que alcanzo esta pelicula en su tiempo y el efecto que produjo cuando se estreno en todas aquellas personas que se dijeron : voy a verla. Hoy BEN - HUR figura como una de las superproducciones emblematicas del cine a nivel mundial por su tematica y por el colosal despliegue de medios que fueron necesarios para ser galardonada , al final , con 11 Oscar's. Partidarios y retractores de este genero del cine tuvieron a bien premiar a una pelicula cuyo sentido adquiere hoy , en nuestros dias, una realidad que siempre nos habra de acompan~ar en nuestras vidas : como el AMOR siempre vence por muy doloroso que sea el sacrificio
There never was,is or ever will be a sound track like Miklos Rozsa's for the immortal Ben-Hur.
Almost at the moment he died, I heard him say Father forgive them, they know not what they do.
Even then.
EVEN THEN.
And I felt his words take the sword out of my hand.
Marvelous dialog, brilliantly acted. Love this film.
This movie and soundtrack has been inscribed in my soul💖
¡ Bellísimo ! , Una inspiración divina.
Thank you to all who put this movie to and touch so many lives, starting with general Lew Wallace.
Shalom🌿
Ben Hur is my all time Favorite movie!!!
Of Course,
Miklos Rozsa Is my Favorite Composer, For All His Wondrous and Majestic Movie Scores❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Y sentí que su palabra quitaba la espada de mi mano... dice Judah a Tirsa... Y sube su mirada a la escalera, dónde su madre y hermana le esperan, curadas por la fé en el Todopoderoso... Y Heston nos arranca el corazón con una actuación sublime, y se escuchan los angelicales coros, provenientes del genio incomparable de Miklos Rozsa. Tirsa se les une, la pantalla nos lleva al Monte Calvario, dónde un pastor conduce a sus ovejas, y la belleza inmortal de esta partitura nos inunda con un éxtasis brutal...
Dios, que final!!!
Bonita descripción ,parte final de la película ,tienes toda la razón. Cuando Heston abraza a su madre y a su hermana, es inevitable derramar lágrimas..
Magistral composicion musical de una de las peliculas mas epicas de la historia del cine.
As epic as the movie itself!
Ub clasico de todos los tiempos y esa musica muy especial ,,cuatro horas de pelicula con intermedio,. Un placer recordar,. cuando El Mundo era menos complicado,. Gracias RUclips por esta Joya,. Cuantos recuerdos de infancia.-
Qué hermoso, maravilloso, como no recordar tan hermosas melodías.
A classic! Thank you and God bless!
I´m fanatic of Ben Hurt film everytime.
In fact: Ben Hur would have 12 Oscars but bec there were some disputes about the real scriptwriter it wasnt nominated for. So in my opinion Ben Hur has 12 Oscars.
In fact it also shared the Oscar for technical achievement with Panavision for the Camera 65 cameras and lenses developed for the film. So it is 11.5 Oscars! And it remains the most honored film ever made and the most acclaimed and that is an undisputed fact. And in the top 5 biggest money making films in history, adjusted for inflation, second only to GWTW. It is perhaps the greatest film of all time.

Besides Tunberg, S.N. Behrman, Maxwell Anderson, Gore Vidal and Christopher Fry are known to have added to the screenplay, and both William Wyler and Charlton Heston were known to be making changes to the script while they were shooting it.
As I understand it, not much of the original Tunberg script was left by the time Wyler and the additional writers (Gove Vidal, Maxwell Anderson, S.N. Berman and Christopher Fry) he brought onboard were through with it. Wyler was insistent that Fry be given at least equal credit for the screenplay along with Tunberg, but the Screen Guild would not go along. I have also read somewhere that Wyler was so upset that he took out an ad in Variety urging Academy members not to vote for the Ben Hur screenplay in the Oscar race. It is a shame not to have won in that category as I believe it is a particularly difficult task to write for a film set in ancient times: one has to avoid making the language too archaic on the one hand and, on the other, avoid sounding too modern. Having seen the film in its original 1959 release at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood and many, many times subsequently, I noticed some time ago, for the first time, a wonderful recurring motif that weaves in and out throughout the entire film: the use of "hands" both visual and spoken. It starts with the Main Credits as the camera moves in on the hands of God and Adam as their fingers are about to touch in Michelangelo's fresco; many additional references leading up to the quick shot of Christ's hand nailed to the cross at the crucifixion scene, and the film concludes with Ben Hur's line "and I felt his words take the sword out of my hand." In a way, the film is framed from start to finish with "hand" references. I don't know for sure, but strongly suspect this was intentional. See how many other visual and verbal hand motifs you can pick up next time you watch the film. And, yes, I also believe it is the greatest score ever written for a motion picture.
