SMC Pod #102: Spiritual, Agnostic, & Atheist Cinema

The Secret Movie Club Team (Connor Lloyd Crews, Edwin Gomez, Daniel Ott, Craig Hammill) discusses how cinema comes at God, spirituality, doubt, religion, skepticism in different ways. Breaking the Waves, Robocop, Ida, the Coen Brothers' movies, Luis Bunuel's powerful atheist cinema, all get name checked. But the team-specifically Connor, Daniel, and Craig-end up really digging into their backgrounds and current states of belief or non-belief. Craig tears up. Connor and Edwin note the similarity between going to church and going to the movies.
