The dialogue between film and religion/philosophy continues to mature as it enters its fourth decade. This fine collection of essays on 'Film, Philosophy and Religion' that Bill Anderson has brought together extends the scope of the discussion. It includes essays on both Africa and Turkey, broadens the dialogue to include the experience of the spectator, deepens the conversation theoretically through reference to both philosophy and critical film theory, and focuses the reader's attention helpfully around issues of spirituality and transcendence. Like a box of fine chocolates, it will continue to surprise and delight all those who take and eat.

Like going to the movie theater and having a diverse array of intriguing films before you, Anderson’s 'Film, Philosophy and Religion' presents us a host of thought-provoking chapters—something for everyone and everything—for those who love these sorts of books. Highly Recommended!
