In her 1976 autobiography "Intermission: A True Story", Anne Baxter wrote that she wore a "skin-dyed bra" and a "skin-dyed G-string" underneath the most revealing of her costumes. She also said that her first scene with Charlton Heston was the one where Nefretiri kneels beside Moses and embraces him. Her enamelled Egyptian collars were warmed before they were placed on her so she wouldn't get goosebumps. She brought her five-year-old daughter Katrina Hodiak to see the filming of the scene in which Nefretiri convinces Sephora to leave to Midian. One of the few times she heard DeMille laugh was when a female extra (in the Ethiopian tribute scene) was caught mumbling in the far end of the set and, after DeMille suggested she share her "Earth-shaking remarks", the extra explained: "I was saying, I wonder when the old SOB is going to call lunch?"
