Wholly Moses - DVD (Full Screen)

A broadly farcical comedy that attempts to ape the wickedly funny, Bible-spoofing humor of the previous year's Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979), this all-star rib-tickler concerns Herschel, a historical also-ran whose life so closely parallels Moses', that he begins believing that he is God's chosen prophet, setting out to free his people from slavery--even though his services are not required. Features several recognizable actors in supporting roles, including John Houseman, Madeline Kahn, and Jack Gilford.
