Description

Explore the deep connection between cinema and spirituality with Screening The Sacred: Religion, Myth, and Ideology in Popular American Film. Published by Routledge, this book examines how religious impulses and archetypes shape our understanding of social identity through the lens of famous movies. From analyzing the religious themes in the 1976 film Rocky to investigating if Alien and Aliens represent the return of the earth goddess, this work offers a deep look at how myth functions in modern media. It also addresses how female archetypes influence the cinematic experience in films like Nine and a Half Weeks. Written by Joel W. Martin, an associate professor of American studies and religious studies, and Conrad E. Ostwalt Jr., this text is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in film history, religious studies, and American culture. It provides a way to look beyond the screen to see the underlying ideologies that drive popular storytelling.
