Dialogue

[edit]
[Opening Prologue]
The motion picture you are about to see is an adaptation of the Joseph story in the book of Genesis.
While artistic historic and license has been taken, we believe that this film is true to the essence, values and integrity of a story that is cherished by millions of people worldwide.

Simeon: [referring to Joseph's dream] Yes, who did the wolf get this time?
Joseph: You can laugh, but this time it was about all of you.
Judah: Oh, please. You must tell us our future, great Joseph.
Simeon: [sarcastic] Should I be scared?

Potiphar: Very well. Give them...
Joseph: Nothing! 10 foreigners asking for grain, no ties to Egypt. Are you thieves, hoping to see where we store our grain?! Spies?! I don't know what you are, but I don't believe your story.

Joseph: The three vines signify three days. In three days, Pharaoh will bring you back to the palace, a free man.
Butler: If only it were true.
Joseph: It is true. And when you're free, tell Pharaoh about my gift. Please, promise me.

Pharaoh: I'm told you only need to hear a dream and you can explain it.
Joseph: Not me, Your Excellency. The explanation comes from God.

Joseph: Will you forgive me, for thinking I was some miracle from God?
Judah: But you are a miracle. God sent you to save our family and all of Egypt. And you did.

Issachar: [when Joseph wants to help with the sheep] Wait, you have to be very careful. You might cut your hands on the soft fur.
Joseph: [playfully] Get away! [the rest of Joseph's brothers laughing]

Jacob: [to Joseph] Joseph, are you hurt?
Joseph: [gives Jacob a hug] Father! [panting]
Jacob: [to Joseph] Your brothers, what are they? I asked you a question!
Joseph: They're... They're, uh... They... They went swimming.
Jacob: Swimming?! [Joseph's brothers run to Jacob and Joseph]
Judah: [Long Pause; to Jacob] What happened?!
Jacob: This is how you take charge?! I trusted you to watch after Joseph. But you abandoned my son, my SON!
Judah: Aren't we your sons too?
Joseph: The Ram! [sheep bleating]
Simeon: It's Joseph's dream!
Judah: Wolves kill sheep. It happens all the time.

Joseph: No, this is not right.
Zuleika: Joseph, look at me.
Joseph: No, I will not betray my master.
Zuleika: I'm talkin' to you.
Joseph: No! Stop! No!
Zuleika: WAIT! I ordered to stay. [Ripped the clothes]
Joseph: [worried] No.
Zuleika: Everything you are, you owe to me!
Joseph: Aah! [Joseph continues running, then he hears Zuleika screaming, then the men start to attack Joseph, then falling on the ground]
Potiphar: You stood apart from the other slaves. I let you work home. I kept you from hard labor, and you did well for me. Or so I thought.

Potiphar: You there! Have you cleaned this entire courtyard by yourself?
Joseph: Yes.
Potiphar's Wife: He's a hard worker. [whispering to Potiphar] Maybe we could put him to better use at the banquet hall.
Potiphar: My wife thinks you should work for her. What do you say?
Joseph: I cannot say. A slave is not his own master.
Potiphar: Well said.

Joseph: [to Asenath] They're my brothers.
Asenath: [shocked] What?
Joseph: They sold me. They sold me into slavery. They took me away from my home. I never got to say goodbye to my mother. I never got to see my father grow old. [almost in tears]
Asenath: Joseph, I didn't know. You're here now. You have a home. A wife who loves you. Everything you could want.
Joseph: No. Not everything.

Judah: Take any of us, Your Grace, but please, let the boy go.
Joseph: You would sacrifice yourselves for a half-brother who's spoiled by your father?
Judah: Yes.
Joseph: Why? Why should you care if I take him, beat him, make him a slave?
Judah: Because I will not make my father suffer... again.
Joseph: [shocked] Again? What do you mean, "again"?
Judah: Our brother was not killed by wolves. We were blinded by jealousy and sold him into slavery. For 20 years, we have lived with that guilt. We can't go back without the boy. My father could not bear it a second time, and neither could we. If anyone is to be punished, it should be us. [Judah kneels. Joseph looks away, his emotions overwhelming him, then removes his crown]
Joseph: I will not harm any of you, or our father. I am your brother, Joseph.
Judah: [sees his face] Joseph!
