Hollywood and the Bible: The Good Book in Motion Pictures

by Benjamin Sambul

Overview

Hollywood has been putting out Bible movies since the Silent Era. This amazing new book, "Hollywood and the Bible", is your guide for some of the most memorable Bible films from the past century. They're all in here, from the big-budget extravaganzas to the hopeful near-misses. Focusing on the Old Testament, but including a glossary of mostly all Biblical films ever made, this reference guide is a must-read for Bible movie aficionados. The main chapter, of course, is about DeMille's 1956 epic The Ten Commandments, the standard-bearer by which all other Bible movies are judged against. Many people only know of this Bible film, but it wasn't the first nor will it be the last. There are many other enjoyable Biblical movies, and this excellent book offers detailed analyses of the more important films of this genre. So relax and enjoy as you go back in time!
