I’m not a big sword-and-sandal gal. Except for Spartacus.

I do love the story about the conversation between the director and Stephen Boyd about adding a homoerotic undertone in Ben Hur. Apparently the director was going to discuss it with Charlton Heston. Boyd said “No way. I know Charlton. He won’t be able to handle it. Let me take care of it. I’ll work it in, and he’ll never notice.”
