Hardened Roman Marcellus Gallio (Richard Burton)
oversees the crucifixion of Jesus Christ in Jerusalem.
But problems arise when Marcellus wins Christ's
robe in a dice game, played beneath the dying man.
Haunted by guilt, Marcellus hopes that destroying
the garment -- now in the possession of his escaped
slave (Victor Mature) -- will cure his hallucinations.
The film won Oscars for Best Costume Design, Best
Art Direction and Best Set Decoration.
