Top 100 Spiritually Significant Films

Written in

Apparently the list of top 100 spiritually significant films is just the thing you need “if you want to explore and wrestle with spiritual issues and questions in the wide world of international filmmaking” and “is a monument to a history of people speaking a different language about eternal concepts, testing this new grammar of light, texture, and rhythm as it contacts the contours of faith and reality.”

Well, to be honest, I’m not sure about all the above, but the list is interesting to browse and get possible movie night ideas from. Sadly, after a quick scroll, I think I’ve seen about 5 of these movies. I found the list after googling info on Chariots of Fire which I just watched for the first time this past weekend. Good little movie. Must see. It’s surprising to see religion/Christianity treated so explicitly. I do enjoy what’s perhaps the most well-known line from the movie apart from its theme song:

I believe God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast. And when I run I feel His pleasure.
