One of the best movies ever made, with a magnificent Miklos Rosza score! The final scenes always make me cry.

Love how this movie correctly adapts the fact that El Cid fought for both Muslims and Christians during his time

Great Movie makes me Proud of my Catillean Heritage. Castilla La Vieja Provincia De Leon. Thank you for the download.

It is hard to comprehend just why they don't make magnificent epics like this one, Ben Hur and others any more. But one problem is that there was only one Charlton Heston and there never be another of the same calibre to play the wonderful that he played. I miss those wonderful epics that had no access to CGI at all and used real people. And the soundtracks of these films are ones which no one could easily forget.

From the days when a trailer showed you what to expect. Would I be right in thinking that you have been able to recreate the original trailer by using the blu ray and matching each shot to the original trailer's soundtrack? It looks fantastic.

The flag of Castilla y Leon, the flag that explored the Oceans, discovered and conquered new Continents, in USA for instance, first city (town) established under this flag was San Juan in South Caroline in 1560 I recall, last spanish city in USA was San Diego (California), in 1821 in San Diego the flag of Castilla y Leon was lowered, that day San Diego changed from spanish sobvereingnity to mexican, the spanish soldiers were ordered to cut their pigtails, their wifes cried because of that.

All I want is a blu ray release with english subtitles.

"El CID" FILMED IN SPAIN at the famous Spanish coastal town of Peniscola, with its huge Moorish era "Castle on the beach". (Roughly halfway between Tarragona & Valencia). A genuine fishing village when filmed in 1961, but sadly the film resulted in wall to wall tourist Hotels within just a few years. Which destroyed this little towns medieaval flavour, so now it looks more like Miami Beach in Florida USA today !!!

[georgeinfante]

Should have won a Oscar for the character . Charles Heston did

“Who will besiege Valencia with me?”

- El Cid.
