Studio: Warner Archive Certificate: MPAA Not Rated Description: Two years after his last European film of the 1920s, filmmaker Michael Curtiz showed his range with this ambitious Warner Bros. production magnificently restored here to its fullest possible running length. Like the earlier The Ten Commandments, the two-pronged tale visits Biblical and modern times as it draws a parallel between two fateful eras. Colossal floodwaters roil, great structures topple, Noah and his family survive the worldwide destruction -- and vast destruction of another age lashes out as national hatreds erupt and World War I doughboys charge through the machine-gun hell of No Man's Land. The much-lauded flood sequence may have brought real-life doom with it: some sources say several extras drowned.

This silent classic is a visually stunning epic! The restored version brings Noah's Ark to life with grand scale and dramatic storytelling. Dolores Costello and George O'Brien deliver powerful performances under Michael Curtiz's masterful direction. The flood sequence remains breathtaking even today. A must-have for fans of early cinema—Warner Archive did an incredible job preserving this piece of film history. The emotional depth and technical ambition make it stand out among 1920s productions. Highly recommended for collectors!
