Looking back on the name of "Benxu" in 1959, I watched this remake half a century later, and then I was so angry.
It is said that the religious plot of this film has been deleted. As far as the cut-off plot is concerned, Binxu is not only not great, but also a prodigal.
1. The dandy, racing horse to show off his wealth - At the beginning of the film, Bin Xu and his adopted son Messala (Roman) gallop in the Gobi wilderness. The same dandy is showing off his wealth, but today he will drive Maserati on Beijing Third Ring Road. Sa Huan'er. The little prince of Binxu showed off his wealth a bit powerfully. The horse stumbled and almost fell to his death. But he was very dead and was rescued home by Messala. Still in the sick bed, the maid at home can be played well.
2. The benevolence of women implicated the nine races-Romans ruled the territory, not only by force, but also by fair laws; a Roman code became the blueprint of today's code. Most of the Jews in Jerusalem actually lived comfortably under the rule of the Romans, including the Benxu family. As a result, there were several Jewish fighters with fierce national sentiments (today, they became terrorism), who happened to be the family members of the little lover of Binxu. Bin Xu hid them at home, probably without letting the family know. During the Caesar's parade, the terrorist used Benxu's arrows to assassinate Caesar from the eaves of Benxu's house. Binxu is not only the benevolence of women, but also partial to the nationalist bastard. He also doesn't understand the law. Didn't he know that the assassination of Caesar would involve the nine races?
3. Family feud, national crisis, His Royal Highness chose the former-after five years of slavery, Binxu only remembers the two words "revenge", which is family feud. This is all justifiable. However, he was poorly planned, and the revenge plan quickly alarmed the Romans, so a bloody incident surrounding the slaughter of Jews chasing "Benxu" spread in Jerusalem. As a result, the little lover parted ways with Bin Xu, because the old man died in the innocent killing of the Romans in the last time the Romans captured Bin Xu. Binxu won miraculously. He won Messala and rescued his mother and sister who was already a leper. From then on, he wandered all over the world. On the other hand, in the F1 Championship 2000 years ago, the Romans lost to the Jews, and the sense of honor was lost. What a bloody genocide will follow. At this moment, the Jewish prince chose his family instead of his own nation.
Regardless of the fact that your Binxu fame has been promoted for half a century, a film has ruined your fame for the rest of your life.
