The King of Kings
The King of Kings is the Greatest Story Ever Told as only Cecil B. DeMille could tell it.

And of course there are the stories of the innovators themselves, people who often risked their own security and livelihood to make these films, believing in some way that what they were doing wasn't a 'bad' thing - and that it could rake in some dough.
