#49: Ben Hur (1959)

Show Notes This week Amity goes for a round two with Charlton Heston and it goes so much better as we watched 1959 epic Ben Hur. That chariot race sure is famous for a reason but the other vignettes are also mostly very good. We learn a little something about Jesus, about leprosy and about the relationship women have to men and how referring to them by those relationships can really mar a family tree.   Recommendations: Best of Enemies: Buckley vs. Vidal; The Midnight Club (Netflix); Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre (Netflix)   Next up:  Dial M for Murder (1954)                                                                                            Email us at [email protected] Twitter: @latecomerspod Find Amity @ www.amityarmstrong.com and @AmityArmstrong on Twitter Our Facebook group is here for those who consent: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1754020081574479/
