Christians and film making

Recently I've been reading a book titled "How movies helped save my soul".
Interestinggg.

Here's a part of it.

"Film should be treated with the same respect as church or poision, for it can change your life. People of faith have always been the pioneering edge of art, from Michaelangelo's Sistine masterpiece reaching up to heaven to Bach's attempt at honoring the creativity of God with mathematically profound sonatas, to Blake's lyrical appreciation of the mystic world, to more recent stumbling worshipers and wounded prophets such as Van Morrison, Martin Scorsese, Joni Mitchell, and John Irving. These people understand what my friend David Dark meant when he wrote the following provocation, which could serve as an adequate summary of the message of this entire book: "There isn't a secular molecule in the universe." ---Gareth Higgins

Wow. Interesting stuff. Martin Scorsese? Van Morrison? Stumbling worshippers and wounded prophets?

By the way, do we control film or we get controlled by films?

What we thought we controlled was actually controlling us?
We make films, yup and when we watch them, our heart is lifted, squeezed, perhaps torn down, we weep, we fear, we are irritated, inspired, angered.

How many people watch "Dead poet society" and end up raising their hands and say "Carpe diem" ?

Just a thought.

Will be out for chalet till Friday!
Try not to miss me lol.
