笔者留言--关于这部影片
这是最近由菲律宾网友JING通过邮寄送给本站和广大网友们的一件DVD光盘.这是一部以圣经旧约内容为依据而拍摄的一部宗教史诗性的电影,在国内网站上还没能找到有关该片的内容介绍.从笔者看过之后的第一印象而言,如果您对圣经和西方宗教史没有很多兴趣,那会感到片子情节很陌生乃至枯燥,突兀.如果不是为了更好地理解莫里康为此片所作的著名乐曲,也许我不会坚持两个多小时把它看完.但说也奇怪,正是由于看完了这部电影,却又引起了我对这段圣经故事的兴趣.当我在百度中输入"圣经
摩西""出埃及记" "摩西十戒"等关键词而浏览有关的搜索结果时,我才对影片的许多情节有了更多的理解和兴趣,这部影片几乎是完全依照圣经出埃及记(Exodus)的记载编排的.它讲述了摩西受神的指命,历尽磨难,带领几十万以色列人逃离埃及的一段史诗性的故事.包括摩西的出世(二1一六27),在埃及受压逼的希伯来人(一1一22),十灾与逾越节(六
28一十三16),逃出埃及与芦苇海上的拯救(十三 17一十五21),往西乃的旅程(十五 22一十八27),直至摩西之死等等圣经所记载的内容.笔者对圣经知之甚少,但通过莫里康的著名音乐,把我带入了这部电影,又通过这部电影使我在耄耊之年有兴趣去了解圣经,开阔眼界,从另一个角度去观察我们所处在其中的整个世界.据统计,全世界的基督信徒约占全球64亿人口的33%,也就是说,有二十多亿人是信奉圣经的(在中国,基督教徒也达几千万).尽管我本人是个无神论者,但我仍认为,无论从喜爱音乐的原因,还是从拓展知识,了解世界的原因,我都希望读者,尤其是年轻人,在您百忙的工作之余,花一点时间,耐心的看完这部电影并更多的去了解它的渊源和背景,这对于一个日益开放的中国和她的子民们乃是非常必要的.而为了更好的理解这部电影,建议您可以先浏览一下下面几个有关的网页:"摩西与出埃及记","出埃及记导读".

This 2 hour
version cuts out a lot of the interplay and character development
of the mini-series that helps move the story along, and gives credence
to the whole thing. If you can see the mini-series, do so.
The best thing about both the short
and mini-series versions is the score by Ennio Morricone. He has
composed one cue that I, personally, believe is the finest single
cue he has ever written, and that is saying a lot, what with OVER
400 scores to his name. And Morricone, himself, called this one
of his most difficult works at the time, having to compose, thru
modern means, a score that depicts an ancient time and place. The
score is magnificent, heart-wrenching, and haunting.
