Reseña del libro "Cinema & Religion: The Filmmaker's Prayer (en Inglés)"
What is the filmmaker's prayer? Religion is any organized system of beliefs and assumptions that are held closely by the adherent. These lenses help one make sense of the world. Virtually every human will hold tightly to the particular worldview that helps them get by.No filmmaker with blood in her veins can resist or avoid telling stories that promote truth as she knows it. Consciously or unconsciously, all filmmakers have an ethical purpose in their work. It would follow then that all films must have a moral. In both obvious and subtle ways, filmmakers infuse their worldview into the story. If you think about it, the movie is the filmmaker's prayer. Has the celluloid suddenly become sacred? In these pages, the reader will learn to analyze the values, assumptions, and beliefs found in popular movies. These are films that not only entertain but also instruct and motivate. Some of these movies bring comfort, while others will disrupt the world as we know it. Since the earliest days of the art, movies have always helped people make sense of the human condition. The way great films impact our lives certainly sounds a great deal like the intended role of a religion. This book will: *Equip you to recognize a religious worldview in a film, providing useful tools for analysis on a less-conventional level. *Strengthen your appreciation for the power of film to help one escape the mundane and experience transcendence.*Help you identify the key religious themes commonly found in narratives and compare and contrast them with the basic tenets of major religions-especially Christianity.*Illustrate how an informed religious perspective can help you generate a fresh reinterpretation of movies that you found joyful or those that were emotionally disruptive.*Provide you with an enhanced way of making sense of the values, artifacts, and behaviors demonstrated by your favorite characters.*Demonstrate how the filmcraft in a movie serves to raise the filmmaker's prayer.*Advance your emerging fluency and confidence as a viewer-critic, preparing you to respond to the exigence (the urgent issue) raised by the filmmaker. *Prepare you to add depth to the conversation about any film's contribution to our culture's grand narrative
