NOT A TYPICAL HOLLYWOOD BIG BUDGET EPIC
Created: 23/02/07
This Biblical spectacle was one of the biggest grossing films of the year. It does something many movies of the "Hollywood era" does not....it's focus is on character and not intense action. Led by Gregory Peck and Susan Hayward and a fine supporting cast, the movie is propelled into an interesting vehicle for the lovers of classic movies. The two principal leads standout in their roles as illicit lovers and Peck's redemption after forsaking God, is a memorable flashback. Hayward with her long red tresses is seen to her advantage in glorious Technicolor and she adds depth to a somewhat secondary character over Peck's lead turn. Both roles are understated for this type of movie and should be in every collection. One of the most unusual early 50's religious epics to grace the silver screen. Bravo.

I love the old movies, where you don't have to make the children leave the room because of the filthy language in all the newer movies or the bad scenes.
