An oldie but a goody!!

I was watching this old movie last night with my dad, Ben Hur. He absolutely loves it. I don't "love" it but I really like the chariot race, I could watch that over and over. It was a really advanced/expensive film for its time, I guess that's really why people are fascinated by it. I'm just not into the whole Roman thing as much as he is. I don't know I really get emotional watching it. There are certain instances with Judah that make you cry...maybe it's a girl thing. I like the time period, but I that movie is just tooooo long :) He likes Spartacus as well, but that one I can actually sit through. It has a more interesting story, I guess. Well maybe interesting is the wrong word, succinct?? It's easier to watch, for me. I feel so bad for Spartacus, what a life, hunh? I hadn't seen either one of them in so long, I was wondering if anyone else has seen them or likes them??
