Description

Movies are often examined for subtext and dramatizations of social and psychological issues as well as current movements.

Studies of well-known Catholic directors, such as Alfred Hitchcock and John Ford, have made the search for Catholic themes a reputable field of examination.

Through a Catholic Lens continues the search for these themes and examines the Catholic undercurrents by studying nineteen film directors from around the world.

Although these directors may or may not be practicing Catholics, their Catholic background can be found in their writing and directing.

Each chapter, written by a different contributor, analyzes one film of each director for its Catholic motifs.

With the recent increase of cinema studies, this collection will be of interest to students and academics as well as cinema buffs.
