I was really surprised to see the TEN COMMANCMENTS footage of the parting of the Red Sea with Charlton Heston as Moses used in the recent McCain TV ad. From what I understand the film is heavily copyrighted (it's shown yearly still on network TV around Passover/ Easter). Also, I think the ad includes music by Elmer Bernstein from the original soundtrack. Anyone know if they are using this footage with permission? Maybe the DeMille estate granted this. Seems strange to me.
