Ben-Hur: A Tale of The Christ: A Modern Film Miracle

Hello my friends. I know the 1959 film version of Ben-Hur is hailed as one of the classics of cinema, and I love it too. Still I think that the 1926 silent film version is actually an even better movie. The 1926 film is pure movie magic at its finest, and is still just as entertaining and engaging today as it was back then.

Here is a 1926 article from Photoplay magazine that about the silent movie. If you have any trouble reading the pages, click on them and use your touch screen to zoom in.
