The Celluloid Bible-Marketing Films Inspired by Scripture
October 13-November 30, 2008 Thacher Gallery
Bringing together vintage movie posters from around the world along with a selection of ancillary promotional and commemorative materials, The Celluloid Bible examines how the Bible has been visualized on film. These posters, dated from 1898 to the present, promote films inspired by the Bible and biblical era, including domestic and international productions, the classic and obscure, grandiose and camp.
