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).
