The Legend of King Solomon (2017)
This isn't from the Old Testament - it's from the Babylonian Talmud
25 September 2021 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
The other review with loads of likes hasn't recognised there was tons of other ancient literature about King Solomon outside of the Old Testament.
The main story used here - Solomon and Ashmedai - is (I think) the same one as in in the Munich Codex (c.1340AD) but it should also be familiar from the Quran and the 1001 Nights.
And it's a pretty faithful adaptation of that (if you don't mind the device of using a talking animal commentator), and it's beautifully animated.
