It's always been my conviction that Bible movies were more dangerous to ones spiritual health than lascivous images. We know that the latter are unseemly and there is no confusion between good and evil, qodesh and khol. But how many of us still see Charlton Heston when we think of Moshe Rabenu and Cecil B. DeMilles special effects when we imagine the parting of the sea of reeds? These impressions are childish, shallow and almost inavariably at odds with Torah she-baal peh. Biblical history is best left abstract and imagined from the word pictures painted by Chazal rather than from the oil paintings and sculptures of the great masters.
Whish is why it took a goyisher kop to come up with this and moronic Jews (see comment 13) to cheer it and find something positive about it!
