ZD:
I wasn’t insinuating that people would in some way get the wrong idea as to what Moshe Rabbeinu actually looked like, it’s just that seeing these images, the ideas of which have been embedded in our collective psyches from an early age, bought to life in such a cinematic manner, does almost certainly leave an impression. Not that that’s the biggest problem with the notion bought up in the OP, rather that I personally would rather not sully my personal concept of how these events unfolded, shaped by years of competent, careful and detailed nurturing by my parents and teachers, and based on medrashim, with some grand Hollywood vision. This wouldn’t be a conscious effect, rather an automatic unconscious one. That’s the way the mind works. Of course, it’s a matter or personal choice.
