Benhur (1959)-The mega movie that earned the almost bankrupt MGM $75 million and 11 academy awards with a super star cast starring the man with a towering personality,Charlton Heston who plays the rich noble merchant during the time of Christ.

This movie is soo good that you cannot blink your eyes.Great scenes from this movie include the horse Charriot race and the blood of Jesus curing lepers.I still wonder how they were able to pull off such a mega movie during those times..fantastic is not the word!!!!
