Though clearly Egyptians were not black, it’s still a very… 1960s Hollywood way of doing it…
I can, no joke, see 1950s/60s era Hollywood casting Yul Brynner as a Zulu kang, in vague brownface… It’s sort of just what they did. And some of the movies are still fantastic, nonetheless, lol…

You aren't referring to the relatively recent film starring Christan Bale as Mozes? If there's an older one I should watch it.
