personally and i regard the egyptian in an extremely favourable light . it be introduce to me by a well know australian movie commenter and critic name bill who be renowned for his insight and broad vision of people and place and particularly of film . this movie fit the bill perfectly and i come to appreciate his commentary and enthusiasm for this movie that emerge all the more a i watch it and a i be literally draw into it and minute by minute and beyond his introductory comment and on my initial view many year ago . to me and it be propel and layer upon layer and within half an hour and into an intriguing and fascinating production . yes and i be aware of it flaw . but it be so entice the young man of idealism learn from and inspire by his father the peasant treat like rubbish in his suffer the opportunistic friend however flaw but nonetheless love by his friend and the central character sinute and to be sure and a flawed hero too and like so many across humanity of all society and across all time but lovable and worthy of love too . yes and i believe in a christian god and but too and i acknowledge the right and respect that should be due any human be of good heart and who would not or will not disrespect the right of his fellowman without just cause . a such and i endorse this film and it presentation of a man of good heart and conviction in his belief in the sun god he be devote to . such people will always be welcome in my world vision and and hopefully and in many more beyond . so too and the drama in the ensue movie i have watch often as surely a it have touch my heart and soul and as surely a it seem to have infuriate critic in it era . it be captivate and watch the struggle and grief and love of sinute and the physician . when i watch it again and i be always remind of my friend in heart bill and the film critic and who dare to oppose all the critic long ago who rubbish it . he add criticism of too many critic that they make statue to honour star and on the screen or in history and but they do not make statue to honour critic . and beyond all this and i be remind with each viewing of a superb and touch spectacle and of a beautiful and well present drama and that be not just relevant to the 1950s or some bygone era . it be mean for you and me and across time and place and to every man and woman and child and to their personal aspiration for love and freedom and overcome obstacle to misunderstand and gross injustice and tragedy appeal to those of simple faith of many religion and that it seem too many regard a cause for war . take a night off from invitation or unjust violence and from bigotry and judgemental attack on others injustly execute and consider the merit of this offering . not to the sun god and or to power that prove time and again to be so transcient . let this outstanding movie wash over you and like wave onto a beach and like the pass hand of time like life be mean to be . and maybe and you will find yourself carry into it world of possibility . lose offerings no more . 9. positive .
