Review of El Cid (1961) by John S — 15 Jun 2008
The movie Kingdom Of Heaven wanted to be this is what a historical epic should be like. One of my favourite films, the only real flaw in it is that it stars Charlton Heston. This is the story of the legendary El Cid rather than the historical mercenary and warlord and is all the better for focusing on the legend rather than being distracted by irrelevant details.
Excellent.
