Who played Noah in the original movie of Noah's Ark?

Question

I Want the original movie of Noah's Ark. Can anyone give me the answer?

Answer 1

Noah himself, or was it Charles Laughton.

Answer 2

Fat chance. There have been about ninety different movies on that subject. The one you probably want--that is, the one that was the most famous many years ago--is probably "In Search of Noah's Ark," which was probably the strangest motion picture ever to make too much money. You can read about it at IMDB.com, where they discuss the great fun they had making these silly things. I think I have a comment about it in there: these movies were too strange to be distributed in normal channels, so the local churches would just rent out the theaters for a couple of days for a flat fee.

Answer 3

I'm not sure what you consider the "original" Noah's Ark but the one I'm thinking of was made in 1928 and Noah was played by Paul McAllister. There have been numerous versions done after 1928 and a few done before 1928 (some silent) and in other countries.

My version you can see here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0020223/

Several other versions (in case your original isn't the same as mine) you can see here http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=noah%27s+ark
