Pagan Rome was at the
zenith of her power.
The tread of her iron
legion shook the world;
and from every land rose
the cries of captive
peoples — — praying for a
deliverer.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In Judea the glory that
was Israel's lay
scattered in the dust —
and Jerusalem the
Golden, conquered and
oppressed, wept in the
shadow of her walls.

Oppose; while the nom is correct that this is the only film with that exact name, the name of this film is the name of the 1880 novel, of which there are multiple adaptations. Unless the reader is already very familiar with all of the Ben-Hur versions, they are likely to confuse this film with one of the other adaptations, especially if they are familiar with the title of the novel. This change only serves to confuse readers and serves no practical benefit.

Why do we need a "See also" link to "List of films with a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a film review aggregator website", if the film doesn't have a 100% rating?
