positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching from 1959. I never liked this movie for a long time. Mostly because I didn't know the story. After watching a synopsis video I became a fan. Never understood why it didn't receive network airplay than The Ten Commandments around Easter. Starts with the nativity and ends with the passion
positive · AI labelView post →Truth. False Christians who only know that the Ten Commandments was a movie trying to dictate what a nation believes. Sad.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you ever want to take in a silent movie doing what only silent movies can do, I can't recommend too highly Mr. DeMille's 1923 version of The Ten Commandments.

The Ten Commandments without Moses? Are we just going to film a new Hamlet without Hamlet? Is this a game like Garfield without Garfield

neutral · AI labelView post →It cracks me up to see white people who think Jesus, born in Bethlehem to Jewish parents think he's white. What kind of morons are these people. The Jesus they worship was created by MGM Studios from the movie the Ten Commandments. Jesus has never been white. Never will be. They can't wish it so.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ok so two parts here and you can decide which part makes you mad: 1) I like The Ten Commandments, it’s a certified classic and appointment viewing every year in the Core Home 2) it’s also a very bad movie. The dialogue and acting is community church play-level clunky and awkward

neutral · AI labelView post →The City of Pharos set was built near Guadalupe, California for the 1923 silent epic, "The Ten Commandments". It was planned and directed by Cecil B DeMille, and it was the predecesor for his more famous talking remake of the movie. It was the biggest set from its time and almost ruined DeMille.

positive · AI labelView post →THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (1956, VOD, #film) A full stop cinematic triumph. Four hours of Biblical storytelling that never confuses, befuddles, droops, or too-clevers its way out of watchability. It's riddled with jiggles without ruffling Grandma's feathers, and the Exodus scene is genuinely emotional.

positive · AI labelView post →#lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday The Ten Commandments marks my 100th movie this year and while I enjoyed it especially for the sets they built for it I think Prince of Egypt is a better movie
neutral · AI labelView post →The Ten Commandments. A largely white cast portraying Egyptians and Hebrews. Nearly every movie made about Jesus. Christ was portrayed by a white man. Have the same people protesting this addressed those?
neutral · AI labelView post →The use of leitmotifs in Hollywood film scores continued through the 1940s and 1950s, reaching a peak with big religious epics like THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (1956). Cecil B. DeMille, a devoted Wagnerite, insisted that composer Elmer Bernstein use leitmotifs in the score. 10/16 #filmsky #moviesky #BOTD
