Yes, I have since rented the movie but must confess I did not think that the gospel connection was that obvious. One really needs to read the "Mind of the maker" to see it. Also, the original article in Books & Culture, which I based my post on, had access to the script which made the connection much more apparent. <br/><br/>Yet I completely agree, this is a unique storytelling.

Yet I completely agree, this is a unique storytelling.

First thing I did after watching this film was to type "stranger than fiction gospel" into Google. I landed here. <br/><br/>Have you seen it yet? If not, I don't want to spoil it with quotes. When you do, please post again. I'd love to discuss it. <br/><br/>John Eldridge loves to talk about the "grand story" that is woven into all great created art. I agree. <br/><br/>This film has captured our grand meta-narrative in a unique manner, with storytelling that is a delightfully refreshing departure from other mainstream films.<br/><br/>I'd love to hear more from you all.

This film has captured our grand meta-narrative in a unique manner, with storytelling that is a delightfully refreshing departure from other mainstream films.

I’d love to hear more from you all.

It was probably the best movie I watched in the last 12 months. Superb combination of literary elegance, sci-fi fantasy, wit and pathos. Very very funny too. I have the DVD. Happy to lend you or screen it for the DG folks at my place one weekend. Curious to hear whether you guys think there was indeed a gospel message there. I loved this movie completely.
