Kenneth Francis reflects on deconstructing the narrative and on a more nuanced cinematic theology with Christian themes and subtle undertones on the spiritual dimensions in the subtext. He endeavors to analyze core messages in the psychology, symbolism, denotation, connotation, and metaphors in a short selection of film classics over the past 60-plus years and highlights the broader visual implications at play in semiotics in the moral universe which we inhabit infused with Existential, metaphorical timebombs. Such a universe contains love, hate, joy, jealousy, guilt, poverty, wealth, beauty, ugliness, truth, lies, justice/injustice, revenge, freedom, slavery, suffering, and much more, all in 24 frames per second.
