In the comedy based on the Old Testament texts The Beginning of Time, the actors ruthlessly mocked Hollywood and biblical clichés in the frame. At the box office and at the premiere, their characters received a standing ovation.
Old Testament lands
When the film "The Beginning of Time" was filmed, the actors had to try on loincloths and other clothes of that time, as well as feel the life of the Stone Age. But one should hardly expect from a parody of the Old Testament a complete resemblance to the original. Here the snake is not at all a tempter, but a simple boa constrictor. And it was not Eve who ate the forbidden fruit, but one of the loser friends in a prehistoric tribe of gatherers and hunters.
For such an offense the guys are expelled from the village, Oh and Z set off. On the way, they will meet biblical heroes and make friends with some of them, and they will have to run away from someone. The heroes of the film will witness how Cain de alt with Abel, intervene in the plans of Isaac with a sacrifice, etc.
After meeting Isaac, they have to flee from the prospect of circumcision, hungry for female affection, the guys, full of hope, head to the biblical Sodom. They have heard a lot about the promiscuous behavior of local townswomen.
Also, the guys will meet two fellow tribesmen in slavery. One of them won Okha's heart while still in the settlement, and the friends decide to woo the girls through their salvation from slavery. At the same time, the heroes themselves get into one trouble after another.
In the film "The Beginning of Time" the actors pretty much trample on philistine ideas about the past of mankind. Between the jokes, the writers fit in the plot a lot of reasons to think about different issues.
Jack Black
The age of the actor in the role of Zeta could cause confusion for many. In a parody of the Old Testament, Jack Black starred at the age of 40, his character looked much younger. And the behavior of most of his characters in other films resembles teenage habits.
The actor was born in 1969, grew up on the coast of California. At the age of 10, he had to go through a divorce of his parents and several moves. The boy stayed with his father, but often visited his mother.
Jack started his acting career at the age of 20 when he stepped onto the stage in a theatrical production.
Three years later he will star in his first film. For about 10 years, the actor will have to play in minor episodes until he is offered a major role. He is now 48 years old.
Michael Cera
In The Beginning of Time, the actors for the most part no longer need to be introduced to the general public. Michael was no exception. In the cinema, in addition to acting, he was noted for writing scripts, as well as as a producer and composer of tracks. In comedy heplayed the second major role. And he accumulated such achievements already at the age of 29.
He was invited to shoot the film "The Beginning of Time" at the age of 21, by that time he managed to show himself in the comedy genre. In total, he has been acting in films for over 18 years.
Native of Canada, Michael Cera was born in 1988. His cinematic image of a clear nerd is quite consistent with the character of a guy in real life. This is supported by the fact that he graduated from the school curriculum three years earlier than his peers. The guy grew up comprehensively developed and quickly achieved success in each of the chosen hobbies. He will get his first role at the age of 11, his track record now fits more than 40 films. Such a busy schedule quickly turned Michael into the status of an eminent and recognizable actor.
Paul Rudd
At the age of 40, the unfortunate Abel was played by actor Paul Rudd, better known for his lead role in the comedy "I Love You, Dude" and several episodes in the TV series "Friends". In cinema, he began his acting career at the age of 26, and today he has managed to star in dozens of films. For his comedic talent, the directors were one of the first to invite him to The Beginning of Time, actors of this level significantly increased the chances of success at the box office.
Paul Rudd comes from a family of Polish and Jewish immigrants, he was born in 1969 and grew up in a prosperous we althy family. His parents were successful and we althy people, his father and mother held leadership positions. Now Paul Rudd has already celebrated48th birthday.
