Charlton Heston as Judah Ben-Hur getting water from Jesus in Ben-Hur 1959
Summary The Oscar-winning historical epic Ben-Hur has failed to impress Roman expert Michael Taylor, who has criticized the film for its naval battle among other aspects within the same scene. The 1959 classic follows a Jewish prince who, after being sold into slavery, returns to Rome with his freedom seeking revenge on those who wronged him.
Starting at 11:50, the historian discusses the accuracy of the chariot scene and why it's a classic, before diving into how the pirate fleet wouldn't be so big and thenaval battle overall isn't how Romans would conduct themselves in combat. Check out what Taylor had to say about the naval battle scene below:
Yes, it's great to break their oars, but it's even better if you can just get your ram in the hull of their ship, and then that sinks it. We absolutely know that ships are sunk because of ramming.
