In the Beginning - From the Creation to Abraham's Test of
Faith
The greatest stories of the Old Testament are brought
to the screen with astounding scope and power in the
international film which depicts the first 22 chapters of
Genesis . This is the spectacular story of man's
creation, his fall, his survival and his indomitable faith in
the future. Matching the epic scale of the production are
performances by George C.
Scott as Abraham, Ava Garnder as Sarah, and Peter O'Toole as
the haunting presence of the Angel of God. The legendary John
Huston directs and delivers a commanding performance as Noah.
From the film's opening amidst cosmic chaos, to its
lingering message of hope and salvation,
The Bible stands as a monumental motion picture
achievement.
Parental guidance suggested (nudity).
