Which was your favorite movie he made? I love Planet of the Apes and 10 Commandments.
It has to be the "Ten Commandments"... indeed.
I wonder . . . were they able to pry that gun from his cold dead hand?
[Sorry. In very bad taste.]
I liked The Omega Man.
I like Ben Hur and El Cid. ::smile::

It was... have you seen the modify/edit button? Top of your post... to the right.
I am also an Omega Man fan.
Actually, kensington and CDH, I figure Mr. Heston would enjoy the joke and laugh a huge, larger-than-life sort of laugh about it. Don't let it bother you.
People tend to forget how he stood up for civil rights back when the Civil Rights Movement was in full sway. That might not have been the easiest career move, back in that time. Very politically incorrect, even back then when I don't think that term was in popular use.
And you know his recent years supporting the 2nd Amendment were not a terrific ticket into all the best parties of the leftist Hollywood crowd.
Y'all ever get the feeling that Chuck stood up for what Chuck thought was right, never mind the potential harm to Chuck?
I always liked him.
