I am very pleased with my product. I had been looking for this movie for a very long time. I rarely am on the computer except for work. You could say even with the computer generation I am still walking around with my head in the clouds when it comes to computers. My daughter suggested strongly that I look on your web site, and lets just say the rest is history, I am enjoying my movie which I might add, I did not wait very long before getting it. Thanks from a very satisfied customer.

this was a good until a prophet told Naomi that from Ruth would come a PROPHET that SOME would worship as the Messiah. This basically said that Jesus was a Prophet not the son of God and that some would just believe that he was the Messiah.

Many of us love the beautiful biblical story of Ruth, but this DVD is not that. It takes immense creative license from the very first scene by fabricating the before-Ruth history, then continues to indulge by creating the main two character, Ruth and Boaz, into angry characters. Sad to say, this movie will not please anyone who loves to watch Biblically sound films.
BOAZ NOTICES RUTH GLEANING IN HIS FIELDS! August 8, 2009
Teresa (NORTH CAROLINA, USA)
I loved this movie! The Book of Ruth that's in the Holy Bible, has always been one of my favorite books of the bible! Eventhough, parts of this movie is NOT in the Bible, there are still some parts of it that ARE, in the Bible! And I still love this classic old movie ,about Ruth! I highly recommend this movie!
This movie is about a pretty little girl named Ruth, who was solded by her father, to become trained to live in a pagan temple,that worships stone idols,and Ruth may even attain, the so called high honor of being killed for this idol of stone, in Moab. While Ruth grows up in this temple, she has become a very beautiful woman, and she catches the eye of a very handsome man, named Mahlon who is a good man ,who believes in the only one true GOD, the God of Abraham!
Mahlon and his father and brother, all worked with carvings in gold, and stone. Mahlon and his brother and father, was assigned to make a crown of gold for the pagan temple, and Mahlon carried it to the temple, and was tolded to give it to Ruth. Ruth learns that Mahlon, does not believe in stone idols, and that he only believes in the one true God, and Ruth wants to learn more about Mahlon's one true God, and asks Mahlon to meet with her in secret! And Mahlon and Ruth fall in love, and Ruth starts doubting the pagan temple's teachings, about the stone idol, especially after Mahlon tells her, that he has helped make repairs to this so called stone god, that Ruth thought was protecting her. When the pagan temple priests, and the king of Moab, find out about Ruth and Mahlon, their life is changed forever!
Ruth ends up becoming a widow, and goes with Naomi, her mother in law to Judea, to start a new life, and Ruth wants to go where Naomi goes, and she now ,truly believes in Mahlon's one true God, the God of Abraham, and Moses. Naomi and Ruth are now widowers, and they have the right to glean for food ,in the fields of Judea. When Naomi's handsome kinsman, Boaz sees Ruth ,the beautiful widow from Moab, gleaning in his fields, their life is again, changed forever!
PLEASE also READ, the BOOK OF RUTH, that is in the HOLY BIBLE, and get GOD'S TRUE account, of this amazing story of so long ago! I have always found hope, in that God helps Ruth, get a second chance at love! She was also very lucky, in having a good mother in law, and Ruth was a very special woman, who had great courage, and she got a second chance, to have a new beginning at life, with Boaz! And from their lineage would later come KING DAVID, AND JESUS CHRIST OUR SAVIOR, WHO IS THE SON OF GOD!

I receintly purchased the DVD "The Story of Ruth" and was amazed at the quality of the picture and the sound. I first saw this movie when I was very young and as far as quality is concerned it could have been made this year! I loved it! Keep putting out DVDs like this one and you will have me as a consumer for life!
