When I get around to creating my list of the most spiritually significant films of 2010, Get Low will certainly be included and will most likely top the list. My review of one of the best films you’re likely to see this year after the jump.
Pop Theology contributor Richard Lindsay provides a review of a collection of one of the most (in)famous film critics of all time, Pauline Kael.
My research into Contemporary Christian Cinema keeps turning up more and more films, many of which were straight to DVD releases. Here are my thoughts on the latest one I’ve watched.
