The Ten Commandments movie

[acehealth001]

I've read that the film The Ten Commandments was showing in US theatres for a continuos six months duration. These days, if a hit movie is in the theatres for 2 weeks its quite a feat already and considered a box office hit. But six months? And a religious film at that? But that was during the 50s when people still had their moral and ethical values intact; when marriage was still seen as a covenant and child bearing a duty than a liability. It's sad how things have changed for the worst I should say. And entertainmewnt can be our guage for society's state of morality.

That's the thing, when entertainment and religion are together, people just want to see it!

I've seen the film so many times, and I must say the script is well-written and it comes in color so a feat during that time. However, I love the other one which depicts Noah's Ark and not the book of Exodus.
