Based on Leon Uris' sweeping novel, EXODUS is the epic saga of the founding of Israel in the days following World War II. Paul Newman stars as an Israeli resistance fighter, a member of the Hagannah, involved in the effort to bring a group of 600 European Jews from British-blockaded Cyprus into newly partitioned Palestine, right before the United Nations is to vote on making it a Jewish homeland. This classic war epic from director Otto Preminger enjoyed nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Best (Color) Cinematography at the 1961 Academy Awards, and won for best Musical Score.
