Continuity: One of Noah's son's is shown riding a "zebra" in the scene showing the loading of the animals onto the ark. However, it obviously is a donkey or mule made to look like a zebra. Also, while he is riding the zebra, two other zebras are shown being loaded.

I watched this movie late at night with a bunch of munchkins and wondered why more of the adults didn't come watch it with us... It is a unique, well-made, unassuming, enjoyable, surprising, well-told "story." I say "story," because it is a description more than a tale of one way to conceive of the "Lawd of heaven." Gotta love the southern accents. They did a great job and left me rethinking the way I thought of things and smiling as I thought of the way they portrayed it all. It was also curious to me to see how society's perception of music, race, and Sundays has changed, but how some things never change.
Favorite quote... by "The Lawd" - "I'm going ta make me a miracle"
