We are definitely in the time where all things old become new again. Ben Hur comes back to theaters in big bold and brash color.

The story:

A falsely accused Jewish nobleman survives years of slavery to take vengeance on his Roman best friend, who betrayed him.

Now watch the trailer:

The original Ben-Hur had the largest budget ($15.175 million) as well as the largest sets built of any film produced at the time.Costume designer Elizabeth Haffenden oversaw a staff of 100 wardrobe fabricators to make the costumes, and a workshop employing 200 artists and workmen provided the hundreds of friezes and statues needed in the film.
