...schoolchildren in Bangkok, told schoolboys in Malaya: "I might bring to your attention that hate and fear are two things with which babies are not born." There were many, but not too many, songs-Schubert's Serenade in Manila, Mon Coeur S'ouvre a Ta Voix from Samson and Delilah in Bombay, Schubert's Ave Maria in many places-and some long, too long, interviews in between. She went to an old church in Viet Nam to sing Let My People Go, to a meditation temple in Rangoon to talk religion with a Buddhist scholar, to Gandhi...
...plot advances with what at first seems blissful naivete, but the dependable simplicity and expectability of nearly everything soon becomes a pleasant, quiet part of Wee Geordie's world. Geordie is painfully tiny as a bright young lad. He enrolls in Mr. Samson's Home Bodybuilding Course. When next seen, at the age of twenty-one, he is a well-built tower, about six and one-half feet high.

DeMille doubtless has good reason to be confident. In five previous attempts, from the 1923 version of The Ten Commandments down to Samson and Delilah in 1949, he has made a lot of hay in the religious field. But DeMille has not been content to trust merely in God. He has crowded the giant Vista Vision screen with such stars as Charlton Heston, Yul Brynner. Anne Baxter. Edward G. Robinson. Yvonne de Carlo, Debra Paget, John Derek, Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Judith Anderson, Vincent Price. Moreover, DeMille spent ten years in planning the picture, three years and $300,000 in research...
