This is the classic Roman epic of Charlton Heston as the man sent into slavery by his friend, and who then vows to get his revenge. The chariot race at the centre of film has become a piece of cinema history. Remember this film was made in 1959 and all the scenes are "live" and are not computer generated. The charoiot race is run with real people and horses. At the time it was the most expensive film to have been produced and was filmed on the biggest sets ever produced. It was also the film that saved MGM from financial bankruptcy.
