   Is El Cid a good movie?

   • The motion picture will appeal to historic story buffs and spectacular film lovers. As a movie El Cid grows on you. At first it is the story of a relatively ordinary man whose trip to his wedding is interrupted by a battle between the Moors and the Christians of 11th century Spain. But this is no ordinary man.

   When was El Cid released?

   • By James Turner El Cid was released in 1961 at the absolute zenith of the historical epics’ reign in Hollywood. Coming hot on the heels of Spartacus’ runaway success, El Cid bullishly shouldered its way towards the top of this swaggering and bombastic genre of filmmaking.

   What do you think of El Cid?

   • El Cid is the story of legendary Rodrigo Diaz who lifted his country with valour and integrity to drive the Moorish invaders from Spain. I think the best thing I can say about this film is that even though it's nearly three hours long, I never once look at the clock.

   For me, El Cid is a wonderful movie, great story, magnificent action scenes and shot very close to where the original saga is believed to have taken place. I'll never forget the image of the dead El CID riding along the beach into eternity on his magnificent white horse.
