A discussion on the meaning of Christmas and its relation to family and community as portrayed in popular film.
It’s that time of year, and we are going to embrace it with a special Director’s Cut event looking at the symbolic themes underpinning some of our favourite Christmas movies — from It’s a Wonderful Life and The Bishop’s Wife to Die Hard and Miracle on 34th Street.
Join Alan Marcus, Professor in Film and Visual Culture (51cg) and David Law (Professor Christian Thought and Philosophical Theology (University of Manchester) in a discussion on the meaning of Christmas and its relation to family and community as portrayed in popular film.
A Christmas drinks reception will be held afterwards in the Belmont Filmhouse Cafe.
