An epic and daring achievement successful through its magnificent artistic direction, special effects, cinematography, costume design, acting and bold stunts including great chariot scenes.
The special effects during the exodus are light years ahead of its times. The deliverance of the tent commandments and the scenes of charlton heston leading the Israelites from Egypt are among the greatest images cinema has ever produced.
The outrageous Egyptian sets are some of the greatest and largest to have been Constructed.

Charlton Heston's finest moment, almost the same for Baxter, Brynner and Dexter.
Other great actors include Edward G Robinson, Vincent Price, Yvonne DeCarlo, Debra Paget, John Carradine and Olive Deering among others.
