3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and novel perspective, July 27, 2000
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Afterimage: The Indelible Catholic Imagination of Six American Flim Makers (Hardcover)
Though film synopses are not especially artistic or exciting, Fr Blake's thesis of how Catholic concepts of community, sacrament, and symbol influenced six major directors is well presented. The underlying ideas were quite thought provoking, even if their relation to some film sequences bordered on the contrived. Impeccable scholarship in a readable work - and a good present for an intellectual film buff.
