Beautiful Light: Religious Meaning in Film | Christian Bible Service

Beautiful Light: Religious Meaning in Film. Available now at Christian Bible Service.

Though religious films usually don't get much respect in Hollywood, religion still regularly finds its way into the movies. IN BEAUTIFUL LIGHT Roy Anker seeks out the often unnoticed connections between film and religion and shows how even films that aren't overtly religious or Christian in their content can be filled with deep religious insights and spiritual meaning. Closely examining nine critically acclaimed films, including Magnolia, The Apostle, American Gigolo, and M. Night Shyamalan's Wide Awake, Anker analyses the ways in which these movies explore what it means to be human and what it means, as human beings, to wrestle with a sometimes unwieldy divine presence.
