Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Pharaoh (Faraon) is a 1966 film from Poland, directed by Jerzy Kawalerowicz. It is an adaptation of the well-known 1895 Polish novel Pharaoh by Boleslaw Prus.It is set in Egypt in the 11th century BC, during the reign of Ramses XII (a fictional character; the last real Ramses was Ramses XI). The protagonist is his son, the crown prince and future Ramses XIII (Jerzy Zelnik). Young Ramses is charismatic and ambitious, filled with grand plans for the future of Egypt. It's a difficult time for the kingdom, which is deeply in debt and faced with threats from Assyria and Persia. Ramses decides that the answer is to make war on Assyria and re-fill the nation's coffers by conquest. In this he is opposed by Herhor, who is both high priest and commander of Egypt's main army. Herhor and the priests are the forces of reaction and conservatism, opposing Ramses's plans and competing with him for influence over the king.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The younger Ramses has a rather messy personal life. He adopts as a mistress Sarah, a Jew, much to the disgust of his mother, Queen Nikotris. Later he gets another mistress in the person of Kama (Barbara Brylska, The Irony of Fate), a Phoenician princess.

Ancient Egypt: And not a good time for ancient Egypt, either, with the country in debt and the economy struggling and the monarchy battling the priests for power and influence.

comment
Herhor in turn exploits the ignorant superstition of the people, passing off a Convenient Eclipse as the wrath of Osiris, and defeating the popular rebellion against the priests formented by Ramses.

Artistic License – History: As noted above, the story invents a couple of fictional pharaohs, the Ramses line having ended with Ramses XI.

Awesome Moment of Crowning: Ramses XIII gets the standard crown and staff, but not before returning home upon the death of his father and getting angry at a priest for wearing the crown in his absence.
