Cecil B DeMille's almighty epic stars Charlton Heston as Moses and is particularly notable for the Oscar-winning "parting of the Red Sea" sequence. Ironically, the left-leaning Edward G Robinson's waning career was given a shot in the arm by right-wing DeMille's casting of him in the key role of Dathan opposite Heston's colossal tablet-carrier. A bush-burning bonanza of biblical proportions.
