Part of the Stories of Faith Collection
Product Description
Starring legendary actor/director Orson Welles as King Saul, this beautifully made film retells the inspiring story from the pages of the Old Testament. When the barbaric Philistines declare war on the Israelites, all hope falls upon the young shepard David, a boy whom the prophets claim will become King of Israel. But first, David must face his greatest challenge- the mighty giant Goliath!

| This DVD movie arrived, along with three other DVDs in good order. Excellent job in shipping and handling this site. This DVD will be used in my history class at the Community College to show clips of specific scenes for ancient Israel. Thanks. B.L. | | |  | typical old movie acting and special effects, but the message and history is still very valid! Apr 22, 2010 |
| Buy the more modern version from the 'bible collection', it is much better in every way, and more Biblically accurate. | | |  | Awful Jan 22, 2009 |
This movie was just awful. I really can't believe that I spent the time I did to watch it. The acting was awful, the sound was awful, the dialogue, direction, everything was just awful. I couldn't find anything that I liked in this whole movie. I can't even believe that this was a movie with Orson Welles in it. He was awful.
Not a movie I would recommend. Instead watch King David, with Richard Gere, or the Bible Collection's David. Much better than this mess. | | | | Some Orson Welles film should maybe be forgotten Mar 19, 2008 |
When Orson Welles did not have anything to eat he had to become an actor in films that are hardly worth, at times, mentioning, and yet he tries to do what he can as an actor to save the film. That's typical in this one. The Bible is badly revisited in an episode that is not that particularly thrilling because too much known. The film more or less understands some political questions and sees in the attack of the Philistines against Israel an allusion to the menace against Israel from its Arab neighbors. But all that is naïve. The stone civilization against the metal civilization from the north as Solomon will put it later is hardly seen. A sling and a stone against spears and a sword. This symbolism is present but unexploited. That also means The Semites (and that is a lot more than just the Jews) against those from the North, those who speak the Indo-Iranian languages of Mesopotamia, of Babylon, of Persia. All that is missed, and a lot more. The harp is also present but not used to its tremendous meaning. The oldest harp we know in this region is Sumerian and not Israeli or whatever. Israeli music is derived from that Sumerian music of some fifteen centuries before, and it is David who is going to establish the music school of the Temple, of the Levites, and also ,the singing school that will produce the prosody and the psalmody of the Ancient Testament, two musical forms that are both the results of older traditions and the root of twenty centuries to come. Apart from that the film is naïve and primitive. I prefer the version given by Handel in his Saul.

| Poorly dubbed and hard to follow. The thing is I recognize some of these guys from other Biblical epics and they're dubbed with their own voices... but they STILL don't quite match. What's up with THAT? | | | Write your own review about Stories Of Faith Collection: David & Goliath
