Noah and the Flood

About This Movie

Noah and the Flood from 1962 is this fascinating blend of ballet and TV that really stands out. The music by Stravinsky brings this lush, atmospheric quality that feels almost otherworldly. Choreographed by George B, the performance captures the essence of the biblical tale with a unique interpretation—lots of symbolism and depth. It’s paced in such a way that it draws you into this intense emotional landscape, making you reflect on the themes of faith and survival. The practical effects, although limited by 1960s technology, give it a certain charm that modern productions sometimes lack.

This title has had a rather limited release history, primarily existing in a few archival formats, which adds to its scarcity. Collectors often find interest in its unique interpretation of a classic biblical narrative and the collaboration with Stravinsky, who rarely ventured into television. While not widely recognized, it holds a niche appeal for those interested in the intersection of music and visual storytelling.
