    See the 4k restored ben-hur at the China Film Archive. At first I thought it was about Jesus, but later I thought it was about Judas, and later I found out that this Judas is not the other Judas. . In addition, I have always been amazed that the great Hollywood studio is really awesome. In 1959, it was able to shoot such a large-scale production. The horse racing scene instantly killed me,...

    First the protagonist was named Judas, and then even Jesus came out, so I thought it was a movie about a traitor Judas at the end... a little disappointed TT.. The story is still very strong, which is rare among epic films of the same period I am not hypnotized. What impressed me the most was that the face of Jesus was not captured in the shots from the beginning to the end. This is probably the director's message that God cannot be interpreted and interpreted by...

    There is no direct connection between spending a lot of money and becoming an epic. The only condition that can truly equate a blockbuster with an epic is to make good use of a huge amount of money. This film is a model. However, the award music for this red carpet segment is too vulgar. I usually watch old movies short and I can endure it for nearly four hours. I can only say that my ears are infertile....

    I found that the films of that era had a strong religious atmosphere. Great productions such as the Ten Commandments and Ben-Hur are like this. Heinous...

    The racetrack scene is very impressive, and it is still thrilling to watch now; the difference in knowledge system will cause some confusion. After a miracle occurs, there are more plays than moving, but it is hard to say that such a film could be made more than 50 years ago. It is not a miracle...

    God's blessing

    Ben-Hur was released in 1959, starring Charlton Heston as Yoda Ben-Hur. Everything he experienced, was imprisoned by his childhood friend Misara, rowed on the boat for three years, rescued the consul Aris, became his adopted son, competed with Misara, and found that his mother and sister had...

    Ben Hur's thought-provoking lines

    No matter what this man has done to you, you have no right to kill him!

    Life is a miracle!

    Why don't you accept God's judgment?

    Great emotions, great mercy, mistakes are great too.

    We mature through mistakes. Roma has said that in the great future she will unite your life with her, and there are...

Ben-Hur quotes

  • [last lines]

    Judah Ben-Hur: Almost at the moment He died, I heard Him say, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."

    Esther: Even then.

    Judah Ben-Hur: Even then. And I felt His voice take the sword out of my hand.

    [Miriam and Tirzah appear at the top of the stairs; Judah goes up to them, sees that they have been miraculously healed; they embrace each other]

  • Esther: Oh, Judah, rest. Sleep. For a few hours of the night, let your mind be at peace.

    Judah Ben-Hur: [bitterly] Peace! Love and peace. Do you think I don't long for them as you do? Where do you see them?

    Esther: If you had heard this man from Nazareth...

    Judah Ben-Hur: Balthasar's word.

    Esther: He is more than Balthasar's word. His voice traveled with such a still purpose... It was more than a voice... a man more than a man! He said, "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God."

    Judah Ben-Hur: Children of God? In that dead valley where we left them? I tell you every man in Judea is unclean, and will *stay* unclean, until we've scoured off our bodies the crust and filth of being at the mercy of tyranny. No other life is possible except to wash this land clean!

    Esther: In blood?

    Judah Ben-Hur: Yes, in blood!

    Esther: I know there is a law in life, that blood gets more blood as dog begets dog. Death generates death, as the vulture breeds the vulture! But the voice I heard today on the hill said, "Love your enemy. Do good to those who despitefully use you."

    Judah Ben-Hur: So all who are born in this land hereafter can suffer as we have done!

    Esther: As you make us do now! Are we to bear nothing together? Even love?

    Judah Ben-Hur: I can hardly draw breath without feeling you in my heart. Yet I know that everything I do from this moment will be as great a pain to you as you have ever suffered. It is better not to love me!

    Esther: It was Judah Ben-Hur I loved. What has become of him? You seem to be now the very thing you set out to destroy, giving evil for evil! Hatred is turning you to stone. It is as though you had become Messala!

    [Judah looks at Esther, shocked]

    Esther: [sadly] I've lost you, Judah.
