Book Summary
Have you ever been moved deeply when watching films like Shawshank Redemption, Schindler's List or On the Waterfront? Do you ever wonder why? Could it be more than just dramatic music and stellar acting? Chester Elijah Branch in his book Holy Subtext says the main reason why powerful films resonate with audiences is because the Gospel message has been woven into the very fabric of the story. Each chapter gives you the background for the movie, followed by a Christological analysis of the storyline. Branch points out how almost every film makes reference to a Christ-like sacrifice or the prodigal son's return home.
