We love films. Every year Hollywood releases around 600 films. Why do we love films so much? And why do some have such a profound effect on us? Is there an even better story that films might provide a way into?

Our guest is Russ Matthews, a film critic who blogs regularly at Reel Dialogue. He shares about his favourite films, and his own story. We ask Russ some bigger questions.

This episode was recorded before a live audience in Melbourne's CBD in September 2016.

Bible reference(s):
