On a Lighter Note…


So, what is the best movie you have even seen?

For me, the best movie of all times has to be Ben-Hur!

A wholesome movie – brilliant, exciting and enjoyable and keeps one spell-bound throughout its entire screening time.

I have seen it at least 10 times and can even recall effortlessly the dialogue for most of the major scenes. A truly, truly wonderful movie. Love it!

The acting in Ben-Hur is superb even from the supporting cast. Charlton Heston takes the cake here for acting and exhibiting a full range of human emotions.

The music score by Miklos Rosza is hauntingly beautiful. Blissful and soothes the soul too!

Titanic
, which also won 11 Academy Award, pales in comparison to it. There is too much frivolity in Titanic and the film editing is also second best.

Ben-Hur
is the classic of all time.

Unsurpassed and still in pole position!

From your time as well, my dad crazy over Ben Hur.. he watched it endlessly when I was young. We learned so much from that movie..

I agree that it's a movie with characterictic that have since died in the modern world of special effects and dull acting.
