The Ten Commandments

We own The Ten Commandments movie set. What can I say, other than we love it?! It's rated G. Yes, any age will enjoy this classic. The following comes directly from the sleeve:

For sheer pageantry and spectacle, few motion pictures can claim to equal the splendor of Cecil B. DeMille's 1956 remake of his epic The Ten Commandments. Filmed in Egypt and the Sinai with one of the biggest sets ever constructed for a motion picture, this version tells the story of the life of Moses (Charlton Heston), once favored in the Pharaoh's (Yul Brynner) household, who turned his back on a privileged life to lead his people to freedom.

No matter how many times you read about Moses in your Bible, seeing it makes it come alive. Hard to imagine what the Israelites went through. It's obvious that a lot of research went into this production.

This movie is a must see!
