Line 5:
* [[Adored by the Network]]: ABC has shown this on either Easter Sunday or the the day before every year since 1973, according to [[The Other Wiki]]. The one year they didn't air it, they received more complaints for that than for anything else they did the season.
* [[Enforced Method Acting]]: Of a sort. Heston, many years later, told of how on one location shoot, many of the locals were rounded up to serve as a huge crowd of extras... many of whom didn't even need to be dressed up as they were still wearing that sort of clothes today, and didn't really have the scene explained to them other than very basically. As Heston walked through the crowd in costume during the scene, he heard many of them whispering "Mosah! Mosah!"... and realized they thought that ''he actually was Moses''.
** De Mille, normally very kind to his actors, said mildly nasty stuff to Deborah Paget before the scene where she becomes Dathan's sex slave, so she would be appropriately distraught.
