One secret of mine that today I have decided to share with you all on flickr for the sake of the spirit of a great actor and man, who passed away on April 4th 2008.
This personal story goes back to Easter Sunday 2006. It was a beautiful and warm evening as I sat to check my e mails.
I received a most heart warming and moving e mail from Mr Charlton Heston. The e mail is something so personal and moving and special to me so I wont reveal the e mails contents, but basically he Thanked me for my support and healing, that I had touched him deeply with something I had discussed with him. He felt his illness was a challenge that he would overcome with our and his family and friends help and Gods grace and told me to "fear not".
I am not prepared to reveal more only to say he took his time when he was at one stage, very poorly, and even then in his confusion took time to write to me and to thank me for the work I did.
Sadly his illness took his physical life force as will all illnesses to all of us here on earth: We all have to face the inevitable.
My e mail was framed . For a while I had it placed in my home, now I keep it in a safe place as it is something to cherish all the days of my life.
And to receive an e mail from someone who played the part of Moses, and to receive it on Easter Sunday was something very emotional to me.
Heres to a Man. A Man who gave his life who not only played the greatest roles on the big screen, but to a kind warm and loving gentle-man whose faith in God remained all of his days.
May God Bless you Charlton and may your new life in Gods world be as wonderful as it has been in this. Peace and great joy, Ed .
I can only imagine what civilizations and societies were like when these Ten Commandments were introduced to the masses. Did they influence the outcomes of history as we know it to date? Do they have any influence in shaping modern civilization and modern societies?

I already saw this shot a few times on flickr. My girlfriend left her rings at home and with the badly cold day alone at home I gave it a try, too. Thought about the book. The ring. The lightning. Hope you like it.

The Ten Commandments (1956) was director and producer Cecil B. DeMille's last and most successful film, a partial remake of his 1923 silent film of the same title. It was filmed on location in Egypt, Mount Sinai and the Sinai Peninsula, shot in VistaVision with colour by Technicolor. The film dramatises the biblical story of the life of Moses, an adopted Egyptian prince who becomes the deliverer of his real brethren, the enslaved Hebrews. He leads the Exodus to Mount Sinai, where he receives, from God, the Ten Commandments. Charlton Heston played Moses, Yul Brynner played his jealous half-brother Rameses II and Anne Baxter the Egyptian throne princess Nefretiri.
Based on the Holy Scriptures, with additional dialogue by several other hands, The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956) tells the story of Moses, leader of the Hebrews, considered to have been a prophet by Jews, Christians and Muslims. He is thought to have lived in Egypt, in or around the 14th century BC. The older he became, the more Cecil B. DeMille was convinced that he had been put on Earth to do God’s will. He decided to remake The Ten Commandments, in response, he claimed, to scores of imploring letters: “The world needs a reminder, they said, of the Law of God.” Charlton Heston, who had previously worked with DeMille in The Greatest Show on Earth (Cecil B. DeMille, 1952), won the part of Moses after he impressed DeMille at his audition with his knowledge of ancient Egypt. The film follows Moses from the time he was discovered in the bull rushes as an infant by the Pharaoh's daughter, to his long, hard struggle to free the Hebrews from their slavery at the hands of the Egyptians. Heston was also chosen to be the voice of God in the form of a burning bush, toned down to a softer and lower register. As soon as Heston announced to DeMille that his wife Lydia was pregnant, Heston's newborn son, Fraser (1955), was cast by DeMille. Fraser Heston was three months old during filming. Edward G. Robinson was cast as Dathan, Yvonne De Carlo as Sephora, Debra Paget as Lilia, and John Derek as Joshua. The film features Sir Cedric Hardwicke as Sethi, Nina Foch as Bithiah, Martha Scott as Yoshebel, Judith Anderson as Memnet, and Vincent Price as Baka. For the large crowd shots, at least 14,000 extras and 15,000 animals were used.
In 1957, The Ten Commandments was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture. John P. Fulton, head of the special effects department at Paramount, won the Academy Award for his effects. Fulton’s effects included the building of Sethi’s Jubilee treasure city, the Burning Bush, the fiery hail from a cloudless sky, the Angel of Death, the composites of the Exodus, the Pillar of Fire, the giving of the Ten Commandments, and the highlight, the parting of the Red Sea. The production, at the time incredibly expensive with a budget of $13 million, grossed $122.7 million at the box office. It was re-released in 1966 and 1972, and one more time in 1989. The liberties taken with the biblical story of Exodus nor its nearly four-hour length has had any effect on its popularity. According to Guinness World Records, in terms of theatrical exhibition, The Ten Commandments (1956) is the seventh most successful film of all time when the box office gross is adjusted for inflation. During production, DeMille had customarily spread out prints of paintings by Lawrence Alma-Tadema to inform his set designers of the look he wanted to achieve. However, in terms of accuracy about Moses and his time, The Ten Commandments is patchy. Alex von Tunzelmann in The Guardian: “It's amazing how much the fashions of New Kingdom Egypt seem to resemble those of 1956. DeMille can just about be forgiven for the makeup because ancient Egyptians did indeed paint their eyelids, lips and nails, but he is pushing it by dressing dancing girls in fluorescent green bikinis. At least the spectacular scenes filmed on location in Egypt and Sinai, with thousands of extras, lend the whole thing a sense of authenticity.” Hal Erickson at AllMovie: “DeMille's The Ten Commandments may not be the most subtle and sophisticated entertainment ever concocted, but it tells its story with a clarity and vitality that few Biblical scholars have ever been able to duplicate. It is very likely the most eventful 219 minutes ever recorded to film - and who's to say that Nefertiri (Anne Baxter) didn't make speeches like, "Oh, Moses, Moses, you splendid, stubborn, adorable fool"?” During the production in Egypt, Cecil B. DeMille had a colossal heart attack. The doctor insisted that he spend the next two weeks flat on his back in an oxygen tent, and then recuperate for several weeks after that. Typically, DeMille took no notice and was back at work the next morning. He finished filming The Ten Commandments on the day after his 74th birthday. But although he lived for another five years, his health never recovered. On 20 January 1959, his doctor paid him a visit and suggested he should go straight to the hospital. “No,” DeMille told him. “I think I’ll go to the morgue instead.” He died the next day.

DeMille, 1955). Caption: Yul Brynner, film actor and photo enthusiast, takes a break to photograph director Cecil B. DeMille.
Between 1914 and 1958, Cecil B. DeMille (1881-1959) made 70 silent and sound films. He is a founding father of American cinema and the most commercially successful producer-director in film history. DeMille is synonymous with religious epics: The Ten Commandments (1923 and 1956), The King of Kings (1927), and Samson and Delilah (1949). He blended spectacle, sex, and spellbinding narrative to convey a message of faith. His silent films also included social dramas, comedies, and Westerns. DeMille created the image of the omnipotent director, megaphone in hand, wearing boots and a visored cap. DeMille created numerous stars: Wallace Reid, Gloria Swanson, William Boyd, Claudette Colbert, Jean Arthur, and Charlton Heston.
Yul Brynner (Юлий Борисович Бринер, 1920–1985) was a Russian-born United States-based film and stage actor. He was best known for his portrayal of the King Mongkut of Siam in the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The King and I. He played the role 4,625 times on stage and won two Tony Awards. For the film version, The King and I (Walter Lang, 1956), he also won the Academy Award. He quickly gained superstar status with his roles as Rameses II in the blockbuster The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956) and General Bounine in the historical drama Anastasia (Anatole Litvak, 1956) opposite Ingrid Bergman, and made the 'Top 10 Stars of the Year' list in both 1957 and 1958. Later roles include Chris Adams in the Western The Magnificent Seven (John Sturges, 1960) and a gunslinger robot in the Science fiction Western-thriller Westworld (Michael Crichton, 1973).

It is very likely the most eventful 219 minutes ever recorded to film - and who's to say that Nefertiri (Anne Baxter) didn't make speeches like, "Oh, Moses, Moses, you splendid, stubborn, adorable fool"?” During the production in Egypt, Cecil B. DeMille had a colossal heart attack. The doctor insisted that he spend the next two weeks flat on his back in an oxygen tent, and then recuperate for several weeks after that. Typically, DeMille took no notice and was back at work the next morning. He finished filming The Ten Commandments on the day after his 74th birthday. But although he lived for another five years, his health never recovered. On 20 January 1959, his doctor paid him a visit and suggested he should go straight to the hospital. “No,” DeMille told him. “I think I’ll go to the morgue instead.” He died the next day.

The Ten Commandments (1956) was director and producer Cecil B. DeMille's last and most successful film, a partial remake of his 1923 silent film of the same title. It was filmed on location in Egypt, Mount Sinai and the Sinai Peninsula, shot in VistaVision with colour by Technicolor. The film dramatises the biblical story of the life of Moses, an adopted Egyptian prince who becomes the deliverer of his real brethren, the enslaved Hebrews. He leads the Exodus to Mount Sinai, where he receives, from God, the Ten Commandments. Charlton Heston played Moses, Yul Brynner played his jealous half-brother Rameses II and Anne Baxter the Egyptian throne princess Nefretiri.
Based on the Holy Scriptures, with additional dialogue by several other hands, The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956) tells the story of Moses, leader of the Hebrews, considered to have been a prophet by Jews, Christians and Muslims. He is thought to have lived in Egypt, in or around the 14th century BC. The older he became, the more Cecil B. DeMille was convinced that he had been put on Earth to do God’s will. He decided to remake The Ten Commandments, in response, he claimed, to scores of imploring letters: “The world needs a reminder, they said, of the Law of God.” Charlton Heston, who had previously worked with DeMille in The Greatest Show on Earth (Cecil B. DeMille, 1952), won the part of Moses after he impressed DeMille at his audition with his knowledge of ancient Egypt. The film follows Moses from the time he was discovered in the bull rushes as an infant by the Pharaoh's daughter, to his long, hard struggle to free the Hebrews from their slavery at the hands of the Egyptians. Heston was also chosen to be the voice of God in the form of a burning bush, toned down to a softer and lower register. As soon as Heston announced to DeMille that his wife Lydia was pregnant, Heston's newborn son, Fraser (1955), was cast by DeMille. Fraser Heston was three months old during filming. Edward G. Robinson was cast as Dathan, Yvonne De Carlo as Sephora, Debra Paget as Lilia, and John Derek as Joshua. The film features Sir Cedric Hardwicke as Sethi, Nina Foch as Bithiah, Martha Scott as Yoshebel, Judith Anderson as Memnet, and Vincent Price as Baka. For the large crowd shots, at least 14,000 extras and 15,000 animals were used.
In 1957, The Ten Commandments was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture. John P. Fulton, head of the special effects department at Paramount, won the Academy Award for his effects. Fulton’s effects included the building of Sethi’s Jubilee treasure city, the Burning Bush, the fiery hail from a cloudless sky, the Angel of Death, the composites of the Exodus, the Pillar of Fire, the giving of the Ten Commandments, and the highlight, the parting of the Red Sea. The production, at the time incredibly expensive with a budget of $13 million, grossed $122.7 million at the box office. It was re-released in 1966 and 1972, and one more time in 1989. The liberties taken with the biblical story of Exodus nor its nearly four-hour length has had any effect on its popularity. According to Guinness World Records, in terms of theatrical exhibition, The Ten Commandments (1956) is the seventh most successful film of all time when the box office gross is adjusted for inflation. During production, DeMille had customarily spread out prints of paintings by Lawrence Alma-Tadema to inform his set designers of the look he wanted to achieve. However, in terms of accuracy about Moses and his time, The Ten Commandments is patchy. Alex von Tunzelmann in The Guardian: “It's amazing how much the fashions of New Kingdom Egypt seem to resemble those of 1956. DeMille can just about be forgiven for the makeup because ancient Egyptians did indeed paint their eyelids, lips and nails, but he is pushing it by dressing dancing girls in fluorescent green bikinis. At least the spectacular scenes filmed on location in Egypt and Sinai, with thousands of extras, lend the whole thing a sense of authenticity.” Hal Erickson at AllMovie: “DeMille's The Ten Commandments may not be the most subtle and sophisticated entertainment ever concocted, but it tells its story with a clarity and vitality that few Biblical scholars have ever been able to duplicate.

For the film version, The King and I (Walter Lang, 1956), he also won the Academy Award. He quickly gained superstar status with his roles as Rameses II in the blockbuster The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956) and General Bounine in the historical drama Anastasia (Anatole Litvak, 1956) opposite Ingrid Bergman, and made the 'Top 10 Stars of the Year' list in both 1957 and 1958. Later roles include Chris Adams in the Western The Magnificent Seven (John Sturges, 1960) and a gunslinger robot in the Science fiction Western-thriller Westworld (Michael Crichton, 1973).

Tall, well-built, and ruggedly handsome American actor Charlton Heston (1923-2008) appeared in 100 Hollywood films over the course of 60 years. With features chiselled in stone, he became famous for playing many historical figures, particularly in Biblical epics.
His film debut was in the Film Noir Dark City (1950). His breakthrough came when Cecil B. DeMille cast him as a circus manager in The Greatest Show on Earth (1952). Heston became an icon for portraying Moses in the hugely successful film The Ten Commandments (1956). Furthermore, he is best known for his roles in Orson Welles' widely acclaimed Film Noir Touch of Evil (1958), Ben-Hur (1959) - for which he won the Oscar for Best Actor, El Cid (1961), and Planet of the Apes (1968).
These starring roles gave the actor a grave, authoritative persona and embodied responsibility, individualism and masculinity. Heston rejected scripts that did not emphasize those virtues. He supported Democratic politicians and civil rights in the 1960s, but eventually, he rejected liberalism, founded a conservative political action committee, and supported Ronald Reagan. Heston's most famous role in politics came as the five-term president of the National Rifle Association from 1998 to 2003. In 2001, Heston made a cameo appearance as an elderly, dying chimpanzee in Tim Burton's remake of Planet of the Apes.

Estelle Taylor (1894–1958) was an American actress, singer, model, and animal rights activist. With "dark-brown, almost black hair, and brown eyes," she was regarded as one of the most beautiful silent film stars of the 1920s.
After her stage debut in 1919, Taylor began appearing in small roles in World and Vitagraph films. She achieved her first notable success with While New York Sleeps (1920). She was a contract player of Fox and later Paramount, but for the most part of her career, she freelanced. She became famous and was commended by critics for her portrayals of historical women in important films: Moses' sister Miriam in The Ten Commandments (1923) starring Theodore Roberts, Mary, Queen of Scots in Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall (1924) starring Mary Pickford, and Lucrezia Borgia in Don Juan (1926) starring John Barrymore.
Although she made a successful transition to sound films, she retired from film acting in 1932 and decided to focus entirely on her singing career. She was also active in animal welfare before her death from cancer in 1958.

The Ten Commandments (1956) was director and producer Cecil B. DeMille's last and most successful film, a partial remake of his 1923 silent film of the same title. It was filmed on location in Egypt, Mount Sinai and the Sinai Peninsula, shot in VistaVision with colour by Technicolor. The film dramatises the biblical story of the life of Moses, an adopted Egyptian prince who becomes the deliverer of his real brethren, the enslaved Hebrews. He leads the Exodus to Mount Sinai, where he receives, from God, the Ten Commandments. Charlton Heston played Moses, Yul Brynner played his jealous half-brother Rameses II and Anne Baxter the Egyptian throne princess Nefretiri.
Based on the Holy Scriptures, with additional dialogue by several other hands, The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956) tells the story of Moses, leader of the Hebrews, considered to have been a prophet by Jews, Christians and Muslims. He is thought to have lived in Egypt, in or around the 14th century BC. The older he became, the more Cecil B. DeMille was convinced that he had been put on Earth to do God’s will. He decided to remake The Ten Commandments, in response, he claimed, to scores of imploring letters: “The world needs a reminder, they said, of the Law of God.” Charlton Heston, who had previously worked with DeMille in The Greatest Show on Earth (Cecil B. DeMille, 1952), won the part of Moses after he impressed DeMille at his audition with his knowledge of ancient Egypt. The film follows Moses from the time he was discovered in the bull rushes as an infant by the Pharaoh's daughter, to his long, hard struggle to free the Hebrews from their slavery at the hands of the Egyptians. Heston was also chosen to be the voice of God in the form of a burning bush, toned down to a softer and lower register. As soon as Heston announced to DeMille that his wife Lydia was pregnant, Heston's newborn son, Fraser (1955), was cast by DeMille. Fraser Heston was three months old during filming. Edward G. Robinson was cast as Dathan, Yvonne De Carlo as Sephora, Debra Paget as Lilia, and John Derek as Joshua. The film features Sir Cedric Hardwicke as Sethi, Nina Foch as Bithiah, Martha Scott as Yoshebel, Judith Anderson as Memnet, and Vincent Price as Baka. For the large crowd shots, at least 14,000 extras and 15,000 animals were used.
In 1957, The Ten Commandments was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture. John P. Fulton, head of the special effects department at Paramount, won the Academy Award for his effects. Fulton’s effects included the building of Sethi’s Jubilee treasure city, the Burning Bush, the fiery hail from a cloudless sky, the Angel of Death, the composites of the Exodus, the Pillar of Fire, the giving of the Ten Commandments, and the highlight, the parting of the Red Sea. The production, at the time incredibly expensive with a budget of $13 million, grossed $122.7 million at the box office. It was re-released in 1966 and 1972, and one more time in 1989. The liberties taken with the biblical story of Exodus nor its nearly four-hour length has had any effect on its popularity. According to Guinness World Records, in terms of theatrical exhibition, The Ten Commandments (1956) is the seventh most successful film of all time when the box office gross is adjusted for inflation. During production, DeMille had customarily spread out prints of paintings by Lawrence Alma-Tadema to inform his set designers of the look he wanted to achieve. However, in terms of accuracy about Moses and his time, The Ten Commandments is patchy. Alex von Tunzelmann in The Guardian: “It's amazing how much the fashions of New Kingdom Egypt seem to resemble those of 1956. DeMille can just about be forgiven for the makeup because ancient Egyptians did indeed paint their eyelids, lips and nails, but he is pushing it by dressing dancing girls in fluorescent green bikinis. At least the spectacular scenes filmed on location in Egypt and Sinai, with thousands of extras, lend the whole thing a sense of authenticity.” Hal Erickson at AllMovie: “DeMille's The Ten Commandments may not be the most subtle and sophisticated entertainment ever concocted, but it tells its story with a clarity and vitality that few Biblical scholars have ever been able to duplicate. It is very likely the most eventful 219 minutes ever recorded to film - and who's to say that Nefertiri (Anne Baxter) didn't make speeches like, "Oh, Moses, Moses, you splendid, stubborn, adorable fool"?” During the production in Egypt, Cecil B. DeMille had a colossal heart attack. The doctor insisted that he spend the next two weeks flat on his back in an oxygen tent, and then recuperate for several weeks after that. Typically, DeMille took no notice and was back at work the next morning. He finished filming The Ten Commandments on the day after his 74th birthday. But although he lived for another five years, his health never recovered. On 20 January 1959, his doctor paid him a visit and suggested he should go straight to the hospital. “No,” DeMille told him. “I think I’ll go to the morgue instead.” He died the next day.

In 1947 she played her first leading role in Slave Girl and then in 1949 had her biggest success. As the female lead opposite Burt Lancaster in Criss Cross, she played a femme fatale, and her career began to ascend. The 1957 film Band of Angels featured her opposite Clark Gable in an American Civil War story, along with Sidney Poitier and Efrem Zimbalist, Jr.
However, her most famous role that led her to pop culture legacy is of Lily Munster in the cult television series The Munsters (1964-1966), which allowed De Carlo to demonstrate a comic flair that her films had failed to utilize. She also played Lily in the 1966 feature film Munster, Go Home and the 1981 TV movie The Munsters' Revenge
For the next several years, she was constantly working although many of the films failed to advance her career.
Cast in The Ten Commandments (1956) in a leading role (as Zipporah, also spelled Sephora, Moses' wife), De Carlo was part of a major hit. The film was a huge success and De Carlo was among those to be praised for her restrained work.
Dutch postcard by Gebr. Spanjersberg N.V., Rotterdam, no. 5183. Photo: Paramount. Charlton Heston as Moses in The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956). Moses' robe was hand-woven by Dorothea Hulse, one of the world's finest weavers. She also created costumes for The Robe, as well as textiles and costume fabrics for Samson and Delilah, David and Bathsheba, and others.
Tall, well built and ruggedly handsome American actor Charlton Heston (1923-2008) appeared in 100 Hollywood films over the course of 60 years. With features chiselled in stone, he became famous for playing a long list of historical figures, particularly in Biblical epics. His film debut was in the film noir Dark City (1950). His breakthrough came when Cecil B. DeMille cast him as a circus manager in The Greatest Show on Earth (1952). Heston became an icon for portraying Moses in the hugely successful film The Ten Commandments (1956). Furthermore, he is best known for his roles in Orson Welles' widely acclaimed film noir Touch of Evil (1958), Ben-Hur (1959) - for which he won the Oscar for Best Actor, El Cid (1961), and Planet of the Apes (1968). These starring roles gave the actor a grave, authoritative persona and embodied responsibility, individualism and masculinity. Heston rejected scripts that did not emphasize those virtues. He was a supporter of Democratic politicians and civil rights in the 1960s, but eventually he rejected liberalism, founded a conservative political action committee and supported Ronald Reagan. Heston's most famous role in politics came as the five-term president of the National Rifle Association from 1998 to 2003. In 2001, Heston made a cameo appearance as an elderly, dying chimpanzee in Tim Burton's remake of Planet of the Apes.

German postcard by Ross Verlag, no. 681/1. Photo: Paramount-Film / National-Verleih. Estelle Taylor as the woman who embraces the Golden Calf, in The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1923). Caption: The Adoration of the Golden Calf.
Estelle Taylor (1894–1958) was an American actress, singer, model, and animal rights activist. With "dark-brown, almost black hair, and brown eyes," she was regarded as one of the most beautiful silent film stars of the 1920s. After her stage debut in 1919, Taylor began appearing in small roles in World and Vitagraph films. She achieved her first notable success with While New York Sleeps (1920). She was a contract player of Fox and later Paramount, but for the most part of her career she freelanced. She became famous and was commended by critics for her portrayals of historical women in important films: Moses' sister Miriam in The Ten Commandments (1923) starring Theodore Roberts, Mary, Queen of Scots in Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall (1924) starring Mary Pickford, and Lucrezia Borgia in Don Juan (1926) starring John Barrymore. Although she made a successful transition to sound films, she retired from film acting in 1932 and decided to focus entirely on her singing career. She was also active in animal welfare before her death from cancer in 1958.
