Synopsis:
The Man Who Saved Ben-Hur explores my relationship with my 89-year old second cousin, Johnny Alarimo, at the end of his life. A charismatic loner, Johnny spent a dazzling career behind the scenes in show business without never forming any lasting relationships. Destine to die that way, the film is a subtle dance between a subject who wants to control his legacy, and a filmmaker/family-member who simply wants to know him.

Reviews:
"This is an odd documentary about an odd man, but I found it engrossing and touching. I was disappointed when it was over-but only because I wanted it to continue."

"An unexpectedly intimate portrayal of life comprised as a series of almosts. John Rimo is Hollywood. He is marvelous, and fantastic and secretive and he is fleeting."
