Like more formal religious institutions, films can provide us with ways to view the world and values to confront it. Lyden contends that approaches which interpret films only ideologically or theologically miss the mark in understanding their appeal to viewers.

Cet essai analyse les diverses significations du terme iconoclasme dont il esquisse une brève histoire, avant de formuler l'hypothèse de l'existence d'un iconoclasme cinématographique, avec ses caractères propres. Cette affirmation en apparence paradoxale trouve sa justification à travers des développements théoriques et des analyses de films.

"How plausible is it to examine the medium of film through a Christian lens? Are there any grounds for supposing that, in 'going to the movies', one is participating in a religious activity? Faith in Film identifies and explores these key questions." "From the unprecedented and innovative perspective of Christian theology, this book investigates how cinema audiences wrestle with religious beliefs and values. Through a reading of films as diverse as Groundhog Day, Billy Liar, Fight Club, Nobody's Fool and The Passion of the Christ, Christopher Deacy reveals that the movies raise vital questions about the spiritual landscape and normative values of western society today."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
