Fittingly, the last big film of 1998 was The Prince of Egypt, a cartoon from DreamWorks, the same people who gave us Private Ryan. The story of a young Moses, it closed off a year of human impropriety with the image of a non-human prophet scourging us for our human failures and laying down the law. |
