The Ten Commandments (1956)

Written by Cat Ellington on February 22, 2017

(The King of Egypt - with his sword drawn - and his Queen, together, converse about killing Moses, servant of the Most High God) ...

Queen Nefretiri: 'Bring it back to me, stained with his blood!'

Pharoah Rameses: 'I will... to mingle with your own!'

Inspired by the Book of Exodus, this Cecil B. DeMille-directed, Academy Award-winning biblical epic, the seventh most successful film of all-time, needs no further analysis.

Among the undisputed, where exceptionally classic one-liners are concerned, The Ten Commandments is a timeless generational masterpiece, and a National Film Registry-honored landmark of the Hollywood cinema industry ... Period.

Five out of five glittering stars.
