Product Description
Daniel Strange, Lecturer in Culture, Religion and Public Theology, Oak Hill Theological College, London
All of us know the influence of film in contemporary society but
we often lack the necessary equipment to both understand and engage with
the medium. With no reliable compass, Christians can often stray into the
territories of Irrational Avoidance, Dangerous Assimilation or Embarrassing
'Christianizing'. Tony Watkins knows about films and film making, but more
importantly he has developed an all-encompassing Christian worldview
through which he can faithfully analyse the medium. In this book, he gives
us a map of biblical reality that will enable Christians to penetrate
deeply into The Art and Soul of Cinema. For our own holiness, for those we
seek to evangelise, and for Christ's Lordship over all of culture
(including film) this book is a welcome help and guide.
Chris Sinkinson, Pastor and lecturer in apologetics, Moorlands College
This is an extremely insightful guide to the movies. It will help
anyone engage thoughtfully with what films are trying to say in our
contemporary culture. Covering a wide range of film, classic and modern,
Tony Watkins demonstrates the importance of understanding the worldviews
that have influenced them. I highly recommend reading this book before your
next trip to the multiplex!
