Producer-director Cecil Blount DeMille (1881-1959) not only perfected the epic motion picture, he can lay claim to having invented it. 1956's The Ten Commandments ★★★ (Sun., ABC) is actually the second time DeMille filmed the story of Moses leading the Israelites from bondage in Pharaoh's Egypt. He shot a silent version in 1923. This remake, starring Charlton Heston as Moses, was the box-office champ of 1957 and the winner of seven Academy Award nominations. First telecast (to huge ratings) in 1973, the movie has been a TV fixture ever since. Its lone Oscar was awarded to John P. Fulton for his special effects, the most impressive of which was the parting of the Red Sea. According to Exodus, the Lord drove the sea away with a strong east wind. Fulton did it by filming 300,000 gallons of water being poured into a tank. Then he reversed the footage and superimposed other footage of the Hebrews walking dry-shod across the sea bed.

1400. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. (1956)
Producer-director Cecil Blount DeMille
(1881-1959) not only perfected the epic
motion picture, he can lay claim to having
invented it. 1956's The Ten Command-
ments ★★★ (Sun., ABC) is actually the
second time DeMille filmed the story of
Moses leading the Israelites from bond-
age in Pharaoh's Egypt. He shot a silent
version in 1923. This remake, starring
Charlton Heston as Moses, was the box-
office champ of 1957 and the winner of
seven Academy Award nominations. First
telecast (to huge ratings) in 1973, the
movie has been a TV fixture ever since.
Its lone Oscar was awarded to John P.
Fulton for his special effects, the most im-
pressive of which was the parting of the
Red Sea. According to Exodus, the Lord
drove the sea away with a strong east
wind. Fulton did it by filming 300,000 gal-
lons of water being poured into a tank.
Then he reversed the footage and su-
perimposed other footage of the Hebrews
walking dry-shod across the sea bed.
