The True Story of Hannibal (2005)
Benjamin Maccabee, Victor Mature
5 April 2006 - 3 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
Benjamin Maccabee (2005) plays the same role as Victor Mature (1960), and both actors posses the qualities of a true hero: power, charisma, strength... mixed with a deep love for their cause and their people, and a very real sensitivity. Maccabee was the perfect choice, following valiantly in the shoes of Victor Mature and doing him justice. Without limited dialog due to the nature of this documentary, Maccabee still manages to convey an extreme sense of passion and one can really imagine him leading his troops into battle. And those deep, dark, beautiful eyes convey everything he is feeling on the battle field and off. This was an immensely moving historical recount of events in that era, with a true star at the helm
