Focus: The Art and Soul of Cinema

‘You’ve seen the films – now read the book. Focus is an engaging, thoughtful and challenging study, but be warned: after reading this you may never watch a movie in the same way again!’ Chris Stoddard, Reaching the Unchurched Network
Films have never been more popular or, with the increase in television channels and home rentals, so readily available. But how much of what we watch do we really understand? Focus: The Art and Soul of Cinema explains how films communicate the worldview of the film-maker, helping us to engage more fully with the films we watch - and so to enjoy them more. With a passion for film and a deep concern to develop a robust Christian understanding of our culture, Tony Watkins equips us to recognise and respond to the messages in today's movies. Essential reading for anyone who enjoys films and who wants to get more out of their viewing experience.
