Seems I've still got a lot of epics to work through which might delay any Hitchcock watching. Think JFK, Deer Hunter, Spartacus will be my next three. Intrigued by LaLaLand's Italian suggestion as well. I'd like to try watch Gone With the Wind at some point as well
It's funny how many ancient history/religious epics were produced in the late 50s/early 60s, must have been a proper swords and sandals craze

Is it Ben Hur where some actors actually lost their lives in the chariot race
Families agreed to leave the footage in the movie ..
