  At the movies, catholicism is the American religion. Eleven prominent scholars explore how catholic characteres, spaces and rituals are represented in film. With chapters on movies ranging from Going My Way to Dogma, contributors provide close readings that illuminate critical themes and images as they set the films their historical context.
