The Noah

"The Noah" is an experimental feature film directed by Daniel Bourla. Robert Strauss, in his final film performance, plays an American soldier who appears to be the sole survivor of a nuclear war. He arrives on a deserted island and tries to maintain a normal existence, but in his isolation he creates an imaginary world complete with two companions (played in off-screen voice performances by Geoffrey Holder and Sally Kirkland). The film was shot in Puerto Rico in 1968, but was not screened until 1975; it was never theatrically released. "The Noah" remained unseen until 1997, when it was featured on a film appreciation program broadcast by the television station operated by the City University of New York. A 2005 article on Film Threat and a follow-up interview on the same site with Bourla encouraged the filmmaker to resurrect his work. In 2006, "The Noah" had its DVD debut.
