'''''The Ten Commandments''''' is the last of the great [[Cecil B. DeMille]] epics.
 
This 1956 film from [[Paramount]] tells [[The Bible]] story of Moses and the Exodus. Charlton Heston plays Moses. Yul Brynner plays Rameses. They are in a [[Love Triangle]] with Nefretiri (Anne Baxter), whom Moses might have won, had the matter of injustice to Hebrew slaves not come up. Other important characters are, naturally, Moses's brother Aaron (John Carradine); Sephora ([[The Munsters|Yvonne de Carlo]]), daughter of Jethro and Moses's eventual wife; Joshua (Jon Derek); and Liliah (Debra Paget), the woman Joshua loves -- who happens to be the sex slave of the overseer Dathan (Edward G. Robinson), see?
