        Charlton Heston, in his Oscar-winning role, is Judah Ben-Hur, a Jewish nobleman in Palestine whose heroic odyssey includes enslavement by the Romans, vengeance against his tormentors during a furious arena chariot race and fateful encounters with Jesus Christ. "Best Director" Oscar-winner William Wyler masterfully grips the reins of this enduring and spellbinding spectacular.

        For the special "50th Anniversary" release, "Ben-Hur" underwent a $1 million restoration – frame-by-frame from an 8k scan of the original 65mm camera negative, making this the highest resolution restoration ever completed by Warner Bros. studio.

        "We have been working on this extensive restoration for several years, hoping we could be ready with a 2009 release for the actual 50th. The meticulous process took longer than expected, but our primary goal was to deliver the finest quality presentation possible, and we have succeeded in doing just that," said Jeff Baker, WHV’s Executive Vice President and General Manager, Theatrical Catalog.
