First Look: ‘Noah’
What: “Noah”
Cast: Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Ray Winstone, Emma Watson, Anthony Hopkins and Logan Lerman
Writer: Darren Aronofsky and Ari Handel
Director: Darren Aronofsky
The story: Noah (Crowe) constructs an ark and rounds up two of every animal to ride out a great flood in this drama based on the biblical tale.
The buzz: The filmmakers are obviously hoping to tap into the lucrative Christian market. But, so far, evangelicals have seemed more interested in forking over their dollars to see “Son of God,” the recycled History channel miniseries.
