Episode: #49: Ben Hur (1959)
Description: 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.
