Ben Hur (1959) just beginning on TCM. One of my all time favorites, a spectacular film, Charleton Heston carries it like no other actor could have...and for those of you who seem to enjoy dwelling upon the subliminal homo-erotic themes, who cares.

It's the story of a man, beautifully told and acted...and THAT is why it has stood the test of time for 50 years.

Enjoy....

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.

- THOMAS JEFFERSON
