«El tormento y el éxtasis» is the historical drama movie directed by Carol Reed and starring Charlton Heston and Rex Harrison, on DVD.
Set in the early 16th century, it tells of the clash between Michelangelo and Pope Julius II when the latter commissions him to paint the Sistine Chapel. The artist, who prefers sculpture, reluctantly accepts; his clash of temperaments with the pontiff becomes the film's focus. Adaptation of Irving Stone's bestseller.
Single-disc DVD, region 2, with audio in Spanish and English and an approximate running time of 133 minutes.
For fans of classic historical cinema and stories of Renaissance artists.
