Spot on - I like the MGM orchestra heard a clip from the 1960 Oscars when he got the Ben Hur Oscar and they play some music from Ben Hur I think the opening theme and Rozsa says praise of the musicians and said some are here tonight the music here
He was the KING of scoring Biblical epics! I am so thrilled to be FB friends with his daughter Juliet Rozsa when I refer to him I call him "The Maestro." His score for King Of Kings was Golden Globe nominated and should been another Oscar nod - it is a sweet, inspiring, bold, heartbreaking...
Interesting any documentation on that fire wonder what else was lost - on King of Kings two years after the release Jeffrey Hunter said he was getting 1,500 letters a month telling him how much the film meant to them
Thank you you pegged it --- it had me saying what scene is this from? Great film - great score I actually love it more than Ben Hur I also love Quo Vadis
Surprised we have not seen a three film release of QUO VADIS, BEN HUR, and KING OF KINGS 1961 with tons more extras on Quo Vadis and King of Kings. Have seen a great short subject made during the filming of Quo Vadis with great scenes of Cinecitta and shots of Robert Taylor and Deborah Kerr...
