The Ten Commandments

Director: Cecil B. DeMille Cecil B. DeMille

Overview

The biblical tale of Moses' liberation of the Israelites is paralleled with the contemporary story of two sons of a religious family and their divergent paths in life. Cecil B. DeMille's first rendering of this story, which he redid in 1956, is in many ways more entertaining.
