Review of El Cid (1961) by Samuel S — 25 Jun 2007
Epic tale of 11th century Spain, during the civil wars fought between the Christians and the Arab Moors. Personally, I loved the film... given an inspired performance from Heston, who to me seems like a 'hit and miss' much of the time.
Various right-wing references and ideologies give the film a very interesting edge.
