1t has comedy, spectacle and drama;

The production takes a little over
two hours to show. 1t is divided in
to two parts, ancient and modern.
In the former the picture opens on
the lsraelite slaves building the city
of Rameses in Egypt. TheyA are
being cruelty treated by the Pharaoh,
and things look dark until Moses

their liberty, and when it is not
granted zen plaques are Visited upon
Egypt. After Rameses son Is killed
in the last of the plaques, Rameses
orders the Hebrews 10 leave. They
go with aching bodies and glad
hearts over the desert sands. This
part OF the picture is done in
natural colors and in its sweep Is
overwhelming.
Then follow scenes showing Moses
receiving the commandments on the
mount, the children of Israel wor-
shipping the golden calf in a wild
orgy. and finally the fade-out in
which Moses, wrathful at seeing his
peoples treachery, filings the tablets
which lie had received on the rocks.
