Best $4 wife ever spent for a DVD.....Ben Hur.
« on: April 19, 2014, 08:30:50 PM »
Wife and son had never seen it and I talked about sometimes so when she saw it at WAL-MART she bought it. We just finished watching it a little while ago. Good Family movie for the night before Easter. They enjoyed it. I get more emotional at certain parts every time I see it.

My older sister, who did her best to bring a little culture to my country bumpkin ass, took me to see it 55 years ago when it first came out. Think I'll call her tomorrow and say thank you again.

OH....and Frank, it's captioned in several languages. You've probably read the book already so now you can see the movie if you haven't already.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Ben Hur is a great movie.  Have you seen Barabbas (1961)?

Hmmm. I haven't seen this in like, 20 years. Watching it again, it sucks.
Get the real Movie. Much better.

Spartacas
Ben Hur
Barrabas
Movie Marathon.
Not necessarily in that order.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

The all-bunny remake, Ben Hare, was better.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Fully armored for ptarmigan encounters no doubt.
