The Story of David

Filmed in Israel and Spain, the four-hour made-for-TV movie \The Story of David\ stars Timothy Bottoms as the Biblical king. The \David and Goliath\ legend is presented as credibly as possible, while David's later disastrous romance with Bathsheba (Jane Seymour) is handled with taste and decorum. Also in the cast are Anthony Quayle as King Saul, and Terence Hardiman as Bathsheba's unfortunate warrior husband Uriah.
