THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (1956)
They don’t come any more self-important than this epic religious wax museum of a movie. Grand spectacle and incredible special effects counterpoint a cast of thousands and thousands of Pageant Actors. Charleton Heston award for the presence of the incomparably self-important Charleton Heston. Worth watching all four hours just for the Yul Brynner experience.
The Ten Commandments (Three-Disc 50th Anniversary Collection)
Thats a great selection and the inclusion of Airport 75 is genius.
Guess you don’t watch a lot of foreign cinema 😉 I can name a number of bonkytits pictures that leave most of these in the dust. Week End (1967), Fitzcarraldo (1982), Diabel (1974), The Laughing Woman (1969), Last Year at Marienbad (1961), anything by Lars von Trier… And how come Zabriskie Point (1970) didn’t make this list? Classic.
You forgot the award in Magnolia: The Tom Cruise Award for the presence of the incomparably self-important Tom Cruise. I know… it’s so obvious it’s redundant…
