Not My Victrola: New Ben Hur Movie!
I saw on the 'net that a new Ben Hur movie will be released during the summer. There have been three previous Ben Hurs; 1907, 1925, and 1959, Both the 1925 and 1959 movies are considered masterpieces, and I hope the new one is too. The Ben Hur Chariot Race predates all of the movies. It was published in 1894. It came to my mind immediately when I read the news of the new movie. I doubt that it did for anyone else. Maybe next time. I doubt the director called Joe for his musical expertise. Pity.
