The Ten Commandments

Enjoying a life of ease in the court of Egypt's pharaoh, Moses (Charlton Heston) discovers his Hebrew heritage and, some time after, God's mission for him. He dedicates himself to liberating his people from captivity and, with the aid of plagues and divine intervention, manages to lead them out of Egypt and across the Red Sea. A greater challenge comes in the form of the Golden Calf, however, and it takes a final, unforgettable visitation from God on Mt. Sinai for Moses to prevail.
