THE-324 CATHOLIC IMAGINATION IN FILM
This course is analysis of the Catholic world-view and its cultural sensibilities in the works of noted film directors/screen writers such as: Gabrielle Axel (Barbette's Feast), Robert Bresson (Diary of a Country Priest), Robert Bolt (the Mission), Nancy Savoca (Household Saints), William Peter Blatty (The Exorcist), Tim Robbins (Dead Man Walking), and M. Night Shyamalan (Wide Awake). Each film reflects a "Catholic vision" that is integral to the plot, mirrors an interpretive scheme rich in theological overtones, and depicts the artist's perception of the world.
