Product Description
Description
Ten Commandments The 50th Anniversary Special Collector's Edition.
For sheer pageantry and spectacle, few motion pictures can claim to equal the splendor of Cecil B. DeMille's 1956 remake of his epic The Ten Commandments. Filmed in Egypt and the Sinai with one of the biggest sets ever constructed for a motion picture, this version tells the story of the life of Moses (Charlton Heston), once favoured in the Pharaoh's (Yule Brynner) household, who turned his back on a privileged life to lead his people to freedom. With a rare on-screen introduction by Cecil B. DeMille himself, this unforgettable movie experience is enhanced by a dolby surround stereo soundtrack.
Includes 1923 full screen version and the 1956 widescreen version. 3 Discs.

An Image of the Bible,
By
This review is from: Ten Commandments 1923/1956 (DVD)
The Ten Commandements (1956) is undoutedly a great movie. Created with a large scale deployment of decors and extras, it probably represents the best of what cinematographic capacity of the time had to offer. The story clings to the biblical version of events we were taught in religion classes fifty years ago. Actors perform with solemnity. However,the manifestations of God lack the evocative power and subtlety that is found in Ben Hur. Also, the movie shows its age in cinematographic techniques, actors play and atmosphere. A classic in the biblical genre.

What's a 'title'?,
By Richard B. Young (Calgary, Alberta Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ten Commandments 1923/1956 (DVD)
I don't have time to give a review that it at least 20 words long. What's wrong with just giving a star rating?
