Summary: This is the rich account of the making of "The Mission", the feature film directed by Roland Joffe that recreates the utopian splendor and ultimate demise of the "Jesuit republic" in South America [...] Daniel Berrigan spent four months with the cast and crew as a behind-the-scenes consultant on Jesuit life and history. In THE MISSION: A FILM JOURNAL, he shares his candid insights on the making of the film and on its meaning and message for us today [...] Warm, personal, and very wise, THE MISSION re-creates the rhythm of the making of the film and raises provocative and incisive questions for our times."

Summary: Now emulated in several competing publications, but still unsurpassed in clarity and insight, Philosophy Goes to the Movies: An Introduction to Philosophy, Third Edition builds on the approach that made the two earlier editions so successful. Drawing on many popular and some lesser known films from around the world, Christopher Falzon introduces students to key areas in philosophy, like: Ethics, Social and Political Philosophy, The Theory of Knowledge, The Self and Personal Identity, Critical Thinking. Perfect for beginners, this book guides the reader through philosophy using illuminating cinematic works, like Avatar, Inception, Fight Club, Wings of Desire, Run Lola Run, A Clockwork Orange, Blade Runner, Dirty Harry and many other films. The fully revised and updated Third Edition features: an expanded introduction that provides a new discussion of the relationship between film and philosophy; new material on notable philosophers such as Aristotle, Merleau-Ponty and Rawls; and coverage of new topics like virtue ethics and what Socrates offers for critical thinking. An updated glossary, references and bibliography, and a filmography, are also included in the Third Edition. -- publisher's web site
