Joseph - King Of Dreams

(2000)

'Joseph King of Dreams' is an 'adaptation of the Joseph story in the book of Genesis', as stated at the beginning of this video. The prequel to the Academy Award winning 'Prince of Egypt', Mark voices Judah, Joseph's oldest 'half-brother'. This distinction is stated by Joseph after a confrontation between himself and the rest of his siblings. It later comes back to haunt him when, true to the biblical story, he is sold into slavery by his 'brothers'. Judah replies softly 'Half-brothers'.
     As the film concentrates on Joseph's story, Judah is not featured again until the last third of the video. He and his brothers travel to Egypt in the hopes of obtaining food. They do not recognise Joseph, though he remembers them. He devises a test, the end result showing him how much both he and his brothers have changed during the interim years. The film ends with the family being re-united.
