Fifty-three years ago the movie Ben-Hur hit the big screen creating a worldwide sensation, much as Lord of the Rings did recently. In the short list of truly epic movies, Ben-Hur is distinctive for pointing to Jesus while portraying a powerful story of love, heartbreak, slavery, heroism and redemption.

Everything about Ben-Hur is big - the backdrop, the music, the acting, the sheer number of actors and extras required to film it - and as you watch you can't help feeling dwarfed by the enormity of it. Now restored and digitally remastered, this is a DVD worthy of your library.

Storyline: Living in the time of Christ, Judah Ben-Hur would have been a prince of Israel if not for the oppressive occupation of the Romans. As a man of wealth and privilege the last thing he expected was to be unjustly condemned to the Roman galleys, which was the same as a death sentence. His heroic escape, journey back to Jerusalem, and his quest for revenge would have ended in tragedy if not for one thing ... coming face to face with Jesus.
