How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A monumental spectacle of biblical proportions, unfolding with grand pageantry and earnest spiritual conviction. DeMille's vision transforms the story of Moses into a sweeping, character-driven epic that wrestles with identity, duty, and the will of the divine.
