Film As Religion

John C. Lyden, an author, makes an approach to religion, morals, and myth in his book, Film as Religion. He discusses in the book about specific views in an ideological way in film, primarily the topic of religion. The link is attached to the book. In the first few pages, the article/book discusses the overview of film, religion, and how it will be discussed within the chapters.

Most of the approaches can be understood as falling into one of two categories (or a combination of both thereof) that I would define as"theological or ideological".
