When it was released in 2014, Darren Aronofsky’s Noah caused quite a stir as to whether it was an accurate depiction of the Biblical character of Noah. Robert R. Cargill of the University of Iowa argues that the film is actually a combination of sources, including the pre-Biblical Mesopotamian flood narratives of Atra-hasis, Ziusudra and the Epic of Gilgamesh.
