Did you end up watching Ben Hur after downloading? That one is supposed to be amazing. Might have to try some of these. Godfathers are great. Apocalypse Now is great too, didn’t realize it was just a modern / contemporary historical piece / cinematic twist on Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad. It’s long and at times it drags, but at the end of the day it is terrific. It also gets consistent reviews as one of the greatest movies of all time. And then to see the difficulties they had in making it, kind of makes it that much cooler.
