Description
|
|
|
|
Nominated for eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, this lavish 1951 adaptation of Nobel Prize winner Henryk Sienkiewicz's novel about the early days of Christianity became MGM's biggest moneymaker since Gone With the Wind and featured 110 speaking roles and more than 30,000 extras. Robert Taylor stars as a triumphant Legion commander who falls in love with a Christian slave (Deborah Kerr). Leo Genn (as Petronius) and Peter Ustinov (as the definitive Nero) both earned Oscar nods. This two-disc Special Edition includes a featurette on biblical epics, commentary by film historian F.X. Feeney, and the overture and exit music from Miklós Rózsa's Oscar-nominated score.
