EL CID

EL CID

This historical epic film produced in the 1960s, tells the romanticized story of the life of Christian. Not only did he fight the North African Almoravides in the 11th century, but also contributed to the unification of Spain! Featuring Charlton Heston as El Cid and Sophia Loren as Dona Jimena, this dark film is a fantastic one for all history buffs. Nominated for three academy awards and a golden globe award, El Cid is highly recommended.
