The Devil in Film
Satan features prominently in films going back to some of the earliest moving pictures. Can the portrayals of Satan in film help us understand how the Bible depicts and discusses Satan? This session will explore the history of Satan through classic and contemporary films and suggest that the silver screen can provide valuable insights into understanding biblical texts and theologies about the figure.
