Trama
Scampato alla strage dei primogeniti ebrei, il piccolo Mosè viene allevato come un vero egiziano, ma quando scopre le sue origini rinuncia a tutto per condividere le sofferenze del suo popolo. Ma solo dopo l'invio delle terribili sette piaghe il faraone accetta di lasciarli partire. Più tardi, pentitosi di aver ceduto, li insegue con il suo esercito, ma viene inghiottito dal Mar Rosso. Mosé, dopo aver ricevuto le tavole della Legge, muore, ormai vecchio, vedendo soltanto da lontano la Terra Promessa. Il film è diventato l'esempio per eccellenza dei kolossal. Particolarmente sontuosi, per l'epoca, gli effetti speciali (premiati con l'Oscar) e l'uso che De Mille fa del Cinemascope.
