Noah's Ark is a 1928 American part-talkie epic disaster film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Dolores Costello and George O'Brien.

[3] After the Great Flood, Noah and his family are seen outside of the Ark praising Jehovah, followed by depictions of the building of the Tower of Babel, the worshipping of the golden calf, and then the eve of World War I (WWI), where a bankrupted trader shoots his uncaring stockbroker.

Travis and Al rescue Marie, a German member of a small theatrical troupe, with the help of a prisoner who uncuffed himself from a now-dead escort.

At the nearby lodge where they take shelter, fellow survivor Nickoloff, an officer in the Russian secret services, tries to sneak into Marie's room.

Nickoloff spots Marie in a group of dancers entertaining the troops, threatening to have her arrested as a German spy unless she meets him later.

Among the chaos, Japheth, freed from his chains, finds and carries Miriam back to the Ark, where Jehovah restores his sight.

Nephilim tries to climb aboard the Ark, only to have the door slam on his hand, inflicting the same injuries Nickoloff suffered.

[4] During the filming of the climactic flood scene, the 600,000 US gallons (2,300,000 L; 500,000 imp gal) of water used was so overwhelming that three extras drowned, one was so badly injured that his leg needed to be amputated, and a number suffered broken limbs and other serious injuries, which led to implementation of stunt safety regulations the following year.

Originally, it had been planned as a silent film in 1926 for potential release in 1927, but a number of talking sequences were added.

Mordaunt Hall, writing in The New York Times, stated that "this cumbersome production, one feels that it is a great test of patience".

The New York Post's review of the film stated that it was "A solid bore, with a very second rate war story in which everything from The Big Parade to date has been shabbily copied".
