R.I.P. Judah

Charlton Heston, 84; actor, Oscar winner, played grand figures

With such a body of work to choose from I decided to limit the clips to three.


Omega Man, 1971


Planet of the Apes, 1968

For some reason all of the good Jason Colby clips are un-embeddable (click the link for Sable & Jason's divorce scene), so it came down to Ben-Hur or Soylent Green.


Soylent Green, 1973

It turns out I couldn't leave out a clip of Judah. My father introduced me to Ben-Hur when I was a kid.


Ben-Hur, 1959
