3 things about Cecil B. DeMille’s THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

Posted on August 20, 2011 by robchristopher

The Ten Commandments [1923]

1. “They are not laws–they are the LAW.”
2. Not in the remake: Ramses’ son is a bratty boy pharoah with a little whip.
3. He shoots Sally Lung. As she falls to the floor she grabs the edge of the curtain, ripping it off its rings. Closeup on the curtain rings. Just like Psycho.
