Joseph

Joseph is a sort of sequel to the made for TV Abraham.  This movie had a surprisingly big name cast with Ben Kingsley playing Potiphar.  There were many shots of the camera caressing a scantily clad Joseph through the gaze of Potiphar.  I really can't figure out if the homoerotic subtext in this movie was intentional or not, but it has made it my favourite Biblical movie.  Also, Monica Bellucci was criminally under-used as the Pharaoh's wife.
