#1 in 1966: The Bible... from the Beginning

 


The Bible ... in the Beginning is an oddity. It was the number one film in 1966 with an all-star cast yet is virtually unknown to today's audiences, unlike other films of this era. The film was dated in its time, however, appealing to an audience that was rapidly dying off of old age and no longer a reliable presence at movie theaters. The counter culture would soon begin to demand and create its own films. Hollywood would struggle to adapt to this new audience.
