 Exodus review Product Description
Based on Leon Uris' sweeping novel, EXODUS is the epic saga of the founding of Israel in the days following World War II. Paul Newman stars as an Israeli resistance fighter, a member of the Hagannah, involved in the effort to bring a group of 600 European Jews from British-blockaded Cyprus into newly partitioned Palestine, right before the United Nations is to vote on making it a Jewish homeland. This classic war epic from director Otto Preminger enjoyed nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Best (Color) Cinematography at the 1961 Academy Awards, and won for best Musical Score.
Color by Technicolor; shot in 70mm, Super-Panavision, on location in Israel.
Approximate budget $3.5 to 4 million.
One of the first films to break the blacklist, by using Hollywood 10 writer Dalton Trumbo to write the screenplay. Trumbo also wrote the screenplay for "Spartacus," directed by Stanley Kubrick, the same year. Director/producer Otto Preminger and actor/producer Kirk Douglas were responsible for helping Hollywood break the infamous communist blacklist of the 1940s and 1950s. ...See Full Description
