Well, the 1966 version won academy awards, but there was also the 1988
version with Charlton Heston, which, while it's true it was a made for TV
movie, and therefore not "Oscarable," there is much to recommend it (it's
the one I have a copy of). Just as a matter of interest, there was also a
1964 Australian TV production.

Great stuff, no matter which version you have.  The costumes in the Heston
version are particularly well done.
