I was fortunate to see a good many of the epics in their original releases Timothy and they were events on the big (sometimes very big) screen with great sound ( in many cases). Being the late 50’s and 60’s TV was in its infancy and in Australia at that time a 12” black and white television was a big deal. The epics took us as young children to exotic places and Times in history that was exciting and on occasions informative. I look back on those films and experiences with great warmth and nostalgia and as a life long movie fan consider myself very fortunate to have had those opportunities.I just wish I was alive when these films were coming out. It must have been something else.
I missed them all by at least a few decades unfortunately. My overall favorite genre of film to be honest, especially those in the various widescreen processes.
