Editorial Reviews

This Biblical epic stars Elana Eden as Ruth, who serves in the temple where the High Priestess (Viveca Lindfors) leads the worship of the Pagan idols of the people of Moab. When Ruth falls in love with Mahlon (Tom Tryon), a Hebrew, she must come to terms with his spiritual beliefs, but in time she embraces his faith and converts to Judaism when they marry. Ruth travels with Mahlon and his mother Naomi (Peggy Wood) to their homeland of Bethlehem. Ruth suffers hardship and religious persecution, and when Mahlon dies, Ruth's faith is severely tested. But her belief in God survives this trial by fire, and in time Ruth finds a new love with Boaz (Stuart Whitman). Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

March 30, 2009: The problem was not persay the Movie itself, because this was a DVD that I really wanted to see. Unfortuanately, I have not been able to watch the movie. It was ok through the Previews...but when you got to the movie it started sticking and would not play. I thought maybe the disc was dirty or scratched....but I did not see anything. I even put it into a DVD cleaner...but even that did not help. I think I got a bad DVD. I thought about sending it back....but I thought it was more hassel than it was worth to not only pay for the shipping....but also to take the time. It really is unfortunate that I have not been able to see the movie yet. I may buy another one.....but if I experience the same thing....I do not know that I would buy those kind of things online again and I do not think you can buy them in the store. They have a very limited selection and would have to order it too.
