I watched a good chunk of it. I love that movie. The thing I noticed the most this time around was Nefertiri. She makes my eyes bug out of my head. What a hottie!

DeMille once said that he loved doing Biblical epics, because you could fill them full of sex and still not upset religious people.

My favorites in the movie are Joshua and Lilia. Moses after he went to work in the pits and before he got the beard wasn't so bad either.

I kind of have a problem with the movie because he only brings out the 10 commandments after they already were worshipping the golden calf. In the book (both the Bible and Stone Tables ) they are told the ten commandments before Moses goes up, and sin in that knowledge.

I used to have this thing about watching it every year. I would get really upset if I missed it, or even part of it. Now, I don't really care.

That's kind of how I felt as a kid, but I hadn't seen it in well over a decade.
Moses succumbing to the desert heat, staggering around with the narrator talking over him. Fantastic. Like a prelude to Chevy Chase stumbling around Monument Valley in Vacation. If only Moses had put his pants on his head.

Nathan watches this a lot - and then he quizzes the Pastor about various parts of the show. It's kind of funny, the questions he comes up with. Frequently, the response is a blink of surprise and the comment "You sure pay close attention, don't you?" The questions aren't answered directly - Nathan's encouraged to think about them and come up with his own idea and answer, which I love!
