That's the meta-appeal for me. How did this guy get in so many movies? Back in the day, it was the pleasure of people seeing a favorite actor turn up in more things, I am sure.

Yes, for sure. What's your thinking on why it wouldn't?
- philwelch 3y agoCharlton Heston's peak was in the 1950's, which was a very different era for movies. Judging him by his performances in cheesy sci-fi movies isn't entirely fair if you haven't seen Ben-Hur or The Ten Commandments, and avoided the trap of thinking that our modern fashions are the last word in good art (be that acting or filmmaking more generally).
