Product Information
The epic story of the real-life legendary Spanish hero Rodrigo Diaz (El Cid), who fought to keep his country from the brink of civil war in the 11th century and then went on to lead the fight against the North African Moors. Sophia Loren stars as El Cid's beautiful and ethereal fiancee, torn between her family and her lover, while Charlton Heston plays the role of the determined hero who ultimately sacrifices his life for his country. The breath-taking spectacle of battle and transcendent splendour of the cinematography result in a monumental film not to be missed.Product Identifiers
