The Sheik was portrayed by Hugh Griffith. He won the Academy Award for this role as Best Supporting Actor. If one aspires to be a salesperson, watch and listen to his work. It's absolutely brilliant!
One of the greatest movies ever made! There are a few others and none from Hollywood after the 70's! But Hugh Griffith was amazing...the scene in the Roman bath with Messala is terrific-he fishes Messala in so well! Great film...William Wyler...well acted, wonderful message, great acting, good dialogue! Old Hollywood!
R.I.P. TO ALL THE CAST, CREW & PRODUCERS WHO WERE INVOLVED MAKING A SUPERB, FANTASTIC, STUNNING, FABULOUS EPIC OF ALL EPICS MEGA TIMELESS MOVIE WINNING 11 OSCARS HANDS DOWN !!! RICHLY DESSERVED INDEED !!! SEEN THIS MOVIE AGED 9 YEARS TO 72 YEARS !!!! GOT TO BE TRILLION TIMES !! FROM U.K. (2021).
Looking at Charlton Heston is always an enchantment but I’m sure that in those ancient times and places, people looked more like the Sheikh than like too american Hollywood star looking Heston.....
Precisely why Cecile B DeMille thought that Heston should play Moses. In the 1950s Americans wanted Biblical heroes to look like Americans..... But at least back then they admired the Bible.
RIP Hugh Griffith (May 30, 1912 - May 14, 1980), aged 67 And RIP Charlton Heston (October 4, 1923 - April 5, 2008), aged 84 You both will be remembered as legends.
But they left out what comes next in this scene which Belshazzar says “and you want to kill him I can see it in your eyes, God inevitably deal with him Judah Ben Hur? why cant you accept the judgment of God, I don’t believe in miracles, your whole life is a miracle God spoke to me out of the darkness and led me to a village where a child was born and in this child God would live and He is now to begin His work and all our lives will be touched!” Glory to God!!!
I personally hate watching a film made in English with Spanish dubbing..cause 99% of the time they mess up,but I've seen a few scenes of this film in Spanish and it's not that bad
The Sheik would have been a Bedouin, not an "Arab". The Egyptians called the Bedouins " Sand-Travellers" for their nomadic life style. And there was No Islam in 33CE...that was invented in 632CE...the land the Romans called " Arabia Felix" ( "Happy Araby") Was somewhat tongue-in-cheek...being a trackless desert for the most part, inhabited by quarrelsome nomadic tribes with goats and camels!!!
@CIA Imports we are here on this Earth and we staying by God's command so we won't see ur decsendants breeding pigs . All empires are gone long ago and we still exist hhhh gotta be for a reason hhhh
It's interesting the point of the picture is that Ben Hur doesn't have to settle scores himself but let me say this I think that we're only human and I think that when evil things are done to us we want retribution period you might note the souls under the altar in Revelation saying how long the Lord before you avenge our blood so I think it's a normal thing as created beings to realize that you know that we do want Justice
the weak point: a ramming scene during sea battle.Big plan on a model galley while there was ramming scene.All the figurines soldiers moved in the same time and failed to fall into the water.This scene should have been filmed in a far background in order to make figurines invisibles just before showing the spur getting into Ben hur's galley in a close-up (it was done).In a big movie like this,all has to be real like chariots race which was an epic moment of cinema history
Hugh Griffith (The sheik) was personally afraid of horses. You could never tell from his magnificent performance.
The sheik was one of my favorite characters in this particular movie.
In Ben Hur, he's the best character next to Ben Hur.
Lastima d peliculas x q no están traducidas al español. Mucha gente latina no la s ven
La quiero ver en español
He was one of the Oscar winners
The Sheikh is probably why I watch this movie over and over.
Yesss, a thousand talons.

Yes this film Ben Hur and the Ten commandments the Greatest Films ever this movie is so Beautiful and Fantastic Acting...!!!
I always thought the Ten Commandments was kind of hokey but I liked it.
Chariot race, on of the greatest scenes of all time; such great acting by Heston, and Stephen Boyd
Stephen Boyd its here in That film not Good choose he is a Weak Man oposozition with Great Charlthon Heston !
Arab and Jewish allies, this truly was 2000 years ago.

Jajajaja me encanta el poder de persuasión que tiene este árabe, magnifico actor.
The most literally eye-popping performance of all time.
Hollywood certainly do not make classic movies like this anymore.
The 3 fathers of Israel Abraham, , Isaac and Jacob ; the Sheikh is a descendant from the Ishmael he praying for the Jew because they are all related.
'The Star of David to shine out for your people and mine and to blind the eyes of Rome.'
Yes, back when there was no Arabian myth called Palestine
@@dovbarleib3256 Or Jewish myth called Israel
Does it not delight your imagination! I love Hugh Griffith in this role
Hugh Griffith was also very good in Mutiny on the Bounty (1962).
But they left out what comes next in this scene which Belshazzar says “and you want to kill him I can see it in your eyes, God inevitably deal with him Judah Ben Hur? why cant you accept the judgment of God, I don’t believe in miracles, your whole life is a miracle God spoke to me out of the darkness and led me to a village where a child was born and in this child God would live and He is now to begin His work and all our lives will be touched!” Glory to God!!!
Now that I watch the original version, can say that Latin dubbing is majestic
I personally hate watching a film made in English with Spanish dubbing..cause 99% of the time they mess up,but I've seen a few scenes of this film in Spanish and it's not that bad
The Great film Ben Hur in wonderful land Israel
incredible!

It was a movie, they needed the chariot race to sell tickets. Had nothing to do with higher concepts
@@Bubbles99718 It had a lot to do with higher concepts
