Episode 82: The Ten Commandments

Praise the Lord! TGMEM is covering yet another adaptation of the book of Exodus, but this one has absolutely zero musical sing-alongs and definitely has an extrabiblical romance that takes up too much of the run time! But then again, it also has Yul Brynner’s huge biceps and a hell of a Charlton Heston fake beard, so hopefully those make this movie’s four hour journey worth it. What’s the 11th commandment? It’s “thou shalt listen to The Greatest Movie Ever Made!”The Ten Commandments (1956) is directed by Cecil B. DeMille and stars Charlton Heston, Yul Brynner, Anne Baxter, Edward G. Robinson, and Yvonne De Carlo.Music: “Fractals” by Kyle Casey and White Bat Audio
