Ben-Hur (1959) + Extras [w/Commentary]

Audio Commentary by Film Historian T. Gene Hatcher with Charlton Heston. Hatcher is a very genial host and has some good information to impart, but more than once he opts for less than insightful comments like, "Every time you see someone wearing red in this film, you know you're looking at the bad guys." Heston's comments, recorded separately and well edited into the commentary, provide a good deal more interest overall, as sporadic as they are.

Extras:
– Ben-Hur: The Making of an Epic (58:15) is a fairly standard making of piece, which includes a lot of background information, including on General Lew Wallace and the book, and which features interviews with a slew of people like the always reliable and informative Rudy Behlmer.
– Screen Tests (8min).
