List: Top 3 Movies About Lost Faith

List: Top 3 Movies About Lost Faith

This week on Episode 490 of the InSession Film Podcast, inspired by our review of Thor: Love and Thunder, we discuss our favorite movies about lost faith. One of the more fascinating aspects about Love and Thunder is Gorr the God Butcher, played wonderfully by Christian Bale. At the beginning of the film we see he’s a devout man begging for help from his god, but things change for him when he and his daughter are abandoned. Faith and doubt have coexisted in film in some rather profound ways throughout the years. This exercise was a daunting task given the amount of films apt to this topic, and the extreme quality that exists among them. However, it also sparked one of our favorite lists we’ve done in quite awhile. This was a lot of fun and we loved diving into the films that made our lists. That said, here are our lists:
