David and Goliath
Set during Israel’s struggle against the Philistines, the story follows young David, chosen by God to lead his people, as he prepares for his fateful clash with the giant Goliath. Ivica Pajer brings sincerity to the role of David, while Orson Welles looms over the film as King Saul, a ruler consumed by doubt and jealousy. Directed by Ferdinando Baldi and Richard Pottier, the 1960 epic blends court intrigue, lavish spectacle, and spiritual drama in a stirring retelling of one of history’s most famous battles.
