This is great inspiration,very expectant and allways a great teacher ....you.guys know it ..love the 10 commandments...young n l e !?,
The epic retelling of the incredible Exodus from Egypt by the Hebrew Nation. The story of Passover. Wikipedia may be wrong about how many times this movie has aired. I seem to remember 2-night broadcasts as far back as circa 1970, always on ABC(?) It was "split" as Moses was cast into the dessert by Pharaoh. The real intermission occurs about 20 minutes later, as released. Several minor edits for TV include the infamous opening scene when a guard runs his sword through a first born Hebrew child. Some (apparently code objectionable) harsh language between Pharaoh and his betrothed is also cut, with reference to him treating her like property or an animal. Such edits are minor. Unintentionally funny in spots, with various English accents and catch-phrases. Often regarded as a work of fiction by many, every attempt was make to make it as historically accurate as possible, using biblical and rabbinical works as well. Thousands of extras. Lustfully done, with some slightly "salty" language and rather melodramatic staging and dialog. Attempts to successfully remake this classic have (usually) failed, due to the extremely vivid performances by the actors. Multiple well-deserved awards and a rousing musical score by Elmer Bernstein. Wonderful costumes, amazing sets, impossibly rich Technicolor, and stunning cinematography. The parting of the Red Sea was later "colorized" as bluer for re-release. In the original, it was more greenish. One of the most famous and effective optical special effects of all time. Also, still one of the top grossing films of all time at the time of its release. No animation studio is credited with its special effects, so it is assumed to have been all "in-house". Cecil B.DeMille's finest and final film, and he died soon after completing it. It cannot be truly appreciated on even a "giant" home screen or a typical multiplex. I saw it in the "60's" re-release in "Super-Panavison" in an old theater with a huge screen!
Could have been a great movie and should have been a great movie. But Charleton Hestons over acting just spoils this movie. It is painful to watch. Sure we all have our opinions and that's just mine but wow! One the other hand Yul Brenner as always was very good. Terrible direction by what is otherwise a great director but to try to make a movie and surround it with a ''halo'' so to speak was a big mistake.
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS is a biblical epic film about human spirit and the freedom of a people, which is inspired by faith in their Maker. This is the biblical story of life of an adopted Egyptian prince and redeemer of the Jewish people from slavery. The film is based on the Book of Exodus. The film was DeMille's last work. It is a partial remake of his 1923 silent film of the same title.The director has tried to present a biblical story through a romantic, moving and visually expensive spectacle. The visual effects are really impressive. Given the duration of the film, it can be concluded that this is the most expensive film to date. Some scenes may be described as legendary. However, this spectacle can act too aggressively for less devout viewers. Given the fact that this drama lacks sincerity, especially in the second part of the film. Some of the special effects are overblown, given that they are signs of God's will.Nevertheless, I am delighted with the scenery and I think the costume is simply amazing.Charlton Heston as Moses is the embodiment of a heroic character that is honest and modest. I thought he was much better accustomed to the role of a young and capable Egyptian prince. His character possesses extraordinary strength of spirit. He is a very good choice for this role, which would later prove to be right in one film from year 1959.Anne Baxter as Nefretiri is a beautiful princess. She is something between the poisonous snake and lovelorn woman. Her appearances are too theatrical. Yul Brynner as Rameses II is quite a tough competitor. He is not presented as the villain. However, his character falls into the trap called the exaggerated melodrama.There are a number of different characters in this film. Edward G. Robinson (Dathan) as a treacherous overlord is the biggest villain in the film. Sir Cedric Hardwicke (Sethi) is a reasonable, good-natured and witty old Pharaoh. Yvonne De Carlo (Sephora) is a shepherdess, Moses's wife and probably the strongest female character in the film. Debra Pegat (Lilia) and John Derek (Joshua) are young Jewish slaves and loving couple who in the general plot are trying to preserve their love. Nina Foch (Bithiah) is an Egyptian princess who, out of love for the "son" who was brought up, joins the exodus. Judith Anderson (Memnet) is the designer of the main plot.This is not entirely credible and insightful drama, but it is certainly an exciting movie.
