Adequate Acting

On the whole the acting was adequate. Yul Brynner's bald head has never appealed to me, yet his Rameses has its moments. Charlton Heston's Moses improved with age, but was never as great as his character.

In all fairness to de Mille we should mention his share of the profits is going to religious and charitable institutions, yet that hardly justifies hearing about the "American Way of Life" in a biblical setting.

If you have seen the film, for heaven's sake read the book.
