A decent analysis of prominent gospel films

Savior on the Silver Screen provides useful analysis on almost all of the mainstream films over the christian gospels. Stern and Jefford give three lenses for analyzing these films. 1. Film elements controlled by the director. Lighting, Camera Angles, etc. 2. How does this movie compare to the historical account from the bible? 3. What does the film say about society at the time? Each movie presented has detailed responses to these questions as well as explanations of plot and characters. This book was a very useful tool for my religious studies class. It's uses are suited more appropriately to a college or academic setting rather than personal reading.
