Funny scene

I think it's amusing when Ben-Hur and the others are looking for a good place to sit and view the Nazarene carrying his cross so all they do is just walk up to some people in good seats. When they see the lepers in Ben-Hur's group (his mother and sister) they run away screaming. Then Ben-Hur and the others just casually sit down in their seats and make themselves comfortable. It's kind of funny really.

Never thought of that but yes, it is. I thought Hugh Griffith as the Sheik was hysterical when he was yelling at his original horse trainer. So funny!

It's like when I walk by without a mask and face-diaper morons panic and step back with wide, frightened eyes.
