70 Al-Risalah (1976)
- Although broadly sharing the same film unit (director, editor, etc.),
Two different versions of the film (one in English and the other
in Arabic), were shot simultaneously, scene by scene. Two completely
different sets of actors shared the same set; once a scene had been

language. The main (English) version was released as ``The Message'', whilst
the Arabic version became ``Al-Risalah''.
