Directed by Cecil B. DeMille

Cast

Theodore Roberts Charles de Roche Estelle Taylor

Plot

A silent epic that tells the story of Moses and the Exodus, then a modern story of two brothers and the Commandments.

Sinekatalog’s take

Cecil B. DeMille's silent epic stages Moses and the Exodus, then a modern morality tale of two brothers. Lavish in spectacle, with a famous Red Sea parting, it is a grand and sermonising piece of early Hollywood showmanship.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
