If you haven’t seen the “Joseph” film from the Ted Turner people from the ‘80s, you should. There was “Abraham”, with Richard Harris and Barbara Hershey; the “Joseph” piece starred Paul Mercurio as Joseph, perfectly cast, sumptuously filmed, and with a Potiphar’s wife who could turn any red-blooded buy into a puddle at a moment’s notice.
Strangely obscure, which is surprising given the power of the piece.
Hope you check them both out!
Surprised it took to post 48 to get to the Ted Turner ones. Amazing, isn’t it, that a man like TT presided over some of the best and most accurate biblical movies ever.
Abraham and Joseph especially kept quite close to the book.
