A sequência final de El Cid assombrou a minha infância, assombrou a minha vida inteira. O cavaleiro estático e imaculado recebe uma luz, um reflexo do sol do crepúsculo, e o órgão (o meu instrumento favorito) irrompe grandiosamente, com a solenidade de uma epifania. O último take projeta o cavaleiro, o homem, que atravessa todo o screen, passa da vida de sofrimento finalmente para a lenda. Jamais encontrei outro momento que me marcasse tanto.
Remarkable score by Miklos Rozsa--and a remarkable horse, never throwing a dead rider off! As wildly unbelievable as the ending is, it fits the "legendary" character played so well by Heston. One quibble--couldn't they have taken the poor man off his horse after the battle?
He was Christian Spanish ! he had both Moslem and Christian supporters

This always sends chills up my spine. The organ solo, a work of genius whilst the glare from the Cid's helm blinds the Berber army. Inimitable.
