Starting on the 4th of October, the Grade School Learning Resource Center will introduce a new program! Every Friday, the LRC is going to conduct a film showing from 4:00 P.M. until the movie finishes. High School students are also very much welcome to watch, however, we do not exactly encourage this, as it will coincide with classes.
This week, it will be semi-historical drama musical from DreamWorks, The Prince of Egypt, which is the first traditionally animated film produced and released by DreamWorks Animation.
It is an adaptation of the Book of Exodus from the Bible and follows Moses' life from being a prince of Egypt to his ultimate destiny to lead the children of Israel out of Egypt.

The voice cast featured a number of major Hollywood actors in the speaking roles, while professional singers replaced them for the songs. One of the exceptions was Ofra Haza who sang her song in over seventeen languages for the film's dubbing!
The Prince of Egypt was nominated for best Original Musical or Comedy Score and won for Best Original Song at the 1999 Academy Awards for "When You Believe" (whose pop version was performed at the ceremony by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey). The song was nominated for Best Original Song (in a Motion Picture) at the 1999 Golden Globes.
For suggestions, questions, or clarifications, please don't hesitate to approach any of the librarians and staff available.
