Synopsis


2-Disc Set

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 Commandment." Filmed in Egypt and the Sinai with one of the biggest sets ever constructed, this version tells the story of the life of Moses, once favored in the Pharaoh's household, who turned his back on a privileged life to lead his people to freedom. Digitally restored to the original VistaVision splendor, with a new Dolby Digital track made from the original sound elements.
