      The Prince of Egypt--National Culture and War

      The Hebrews have suffered many disasters in history; they have been defeated, enslaved, marginalized, slaughtered, and then fled and migrated to find their own home. Decades ago, they finally built a piece of someone else's territory. A series of problems, such as the rise of their own country and the ethnic conflicts with the local people, have stimulated serious Palestinian-Israeli conflicts, and the world they live in is...

      When you believe

      In order to facilitate the class tomorrow, I watched "The Prince of Egypt" today. I didn't think it was so good-looking. It was just a song and dance drama about a biblical story.
      "The Prince of Egypt" tells the story of the second chapter of the Old Testament of the Bible, about the Jews who were suffering in the kingdom of Egypt, looking forward to helping them. When the Egyptian pharaoh started to kill a large number of babies, a Jewish family had to put their child into the bamboo blue...

      believe or not

      A film born out of a myth story, no matter how hard it tries to get rid of the religious overtones in the original work, is difficult to innovate, because the characters in it exist because of the myth, and they are tall and inviolable because of their attachment to the myth. This is a fatal flaw for a work that needs to tell a story-how can a character that lacks layers resonate with people? As a result, it can only become a multiple-choice question for the audience in the end: do you believe...

      Unknown encounters are beautiful

      Knowing this movie is actually from its theme song, when you believe, the collaboration between Mariah and Whitney, two American diva Diva, made this classic. Yesterday afternoon, I wanted to drop the name of the elective course. I heard a movie in the large lecture hall downstairs. The ceiling of the classroom is very high. There are windows on the first and second floors. I took a look at the window on the second floor. , almost at a glance I concluded that it was an Egyptian prince, which...

      Excerpts from Excellent Anime Appreciation Homework

      Although the movie reflects the classic plot of the Bible, it has been shaped by the designer, especially the adaptation of the brotherhood of Moses and Ramsey, which plays a finishing touch to the animation. The play between brothers at the beginning of the animation, Moses' reluctance when he left, his joy when they meet again, his ruthlessness when facing the enemy, and his final cry. When Ramses knelt on the boulder and shouted to Moses, his outstretched hands seemed to be waiting for...

      I knew this story for a long time, so I was worried about Moses' final ending when I first watched it. Fortunately, it has been revised. Haha, the production is really beautiful, and it's not bad for...

      Epic movie; being chosen by God is really a helpless thing; Brother Pharaoh can't be more bitter; fortunately that child flower head is a fake headgear; God is really a willful being; the God of Egypt must have been caught, and the Hebrew The gods are doing nonsense; do you have the ability to force the Pharaoh to say that he agrees with you to run...

      I thought how touching it was, the result. . . I think he did almost nothing, and God came out to help him at the critical moment. The climax scene is even weaker, with an epic but not...

    Years ago, the Egyptian pharaoh ordered all Hebrew boys to be drowned. A desperate mother put her son in a basket and floated away.

When Moses learned of his life experience, everything changed.
    Moses, a Hebrew child, was put into the Nile River with a bamboo basket by his mother in order to...

    Background creation

    Based on the "Exodus" story in the Old Testament of the Bible, it was made with computer animation, and hundreds of historical and religious scholars served as consultants. "Prince of Egypt" used 350 chief painters, animators and technicians from 35 countries, costing nearly 100 million U.S. dollars, and was completed in four years. The art director personally went to Egypt to film the scene in order to present the ancient Egyptian...

    Movie quotes

    • Chorus: [singing] Thus saith the Lord: Since you refuse to free my people, all through the land of Egypt, I send a pestilence and plague into your house, into your bed, into your streams, into your streets, into your drink, into your bread! Upon your cattle, on your sheep, upon your oxen in your field! Into your dreams, into your sleep, until you break, until you yield! I send the swarm, I send the hoard! Thus saith the Lord!

    • Tzipporah: I won't be given to anyone, especially an arrogant, pampered, palace *brat*!

      Rameses: [laughs, to Moses] Are you going to let her talk to you like that?

      Moses: [Scoffs] You will show the proper respect for a prince of Egypt.

      Tzipporah: But I *am* showing you all the respect you deserve: None!

      [Pulls rope free]

      Moses: [to approaching guards] No, wait!

      [Dives and grabs rope]

      Moses: Be still!

      Tzipporah: [Starts pulling rope] Untie this rope! I demand you set me free!

      Moses: Be still!

      Tzipporah: Let go!

      Moses: [Notices pond behind Tzipporah, smiles] As you wish.

      [Abruptly lets go]

    • Moses: Yes, Aaron, it's true. Pharaoh has the power. He can take away your food, your home, your freedom. He can take away your sons and daughters. With one word, Pharaoh can take away your very lives. But there is one thing he cannot take away from you: your faith. Believe, for we will see God's wonders.
