The Ten Commandments - Official Trailer [1956]

To escape the edict of Egypt's Pharoah, Rameses I, condemning all first-born Hebrew males, the infant Moses is set adrift on the Nile in a reed basket. Saved by the pharaoh's daughter Bithiah, he is adopted by her and brought up in the court of her brother, Pharaoh Seti. Moses gains Seti's favor and the love of the throne princess Nefertiri, as well as the hatred of Seti's son, Rameses. When his Hebrew heritage is revealed, Moses is cast out of Egypt, and makes his way across the desert where he marries, has a son and is commanded by God to return to Egypt to free the Hebrews from slavery. In Egypt Moses's fiercest enemy proves to be not Rameses, but someone near to him who can 'harden his heart'. Written by Ron Kerrigan

Awesome movie , I had a chance to meet Yvonne De carlo and I missed it :o(.. No way they can duplicate a movie like this would be way to costly now and no good actors or actresses around

It is interesting to read the history of ancient Egytpian religion as seen in the 1500BCE papyrus of Ani and The Negative Confession which showed they had an advanced sense of morality. See also 1760 BCE Hammurabi code. Authors who have examined the evidence for Old Testament times events include Donald Mackenzie, Wallis Budge, Israel Finkelstein,Gary Greenberg, John W. Loftus, Richard Carrier, Ken Humphreys, Earl Doherty, Joseph Wheless, Hector Avalos, Paul Tobin, Mark S. Smith, Robert M. Price
