Today I've got another soundtrack post up here on James the Movie Reviewer's blog, this time about the score for Ben-Hur, one of my absolute favorite soundtracks (not to mention a movie I dearly love). Cowboy gave me the two-disc full score for our first Christmas together because I had once mentioned that I wished I could find the soundtrack (he was wise in the way of internet shopping long before I was). One of the best gifts I've ever gotten. Thank you again, Cowboy! Also, thanks to you, DKoren, for helping me decide which tracks to feature in my post.
I love this movie and the music in it! I'm rather dreading the remake, which is due out next year.
ReplyDeleteWell, I figure this is a remake too, since there was also a silent-era version, so I'm trying to keep an open mind. That being said, Hollywood has royally screwed up their last few efforts at Biblical-leaning epics, so I don't have high expectations for it.
