Article Title: Jesus People: The American film which gives Christian music the Spinal Tap treatment

Comment: Interesting review - thank you. Without having seen the film further comment cannot be anything other than generral but I am guessing your reservations may be cultural. I have visited friends in the States a few times and have always been struck by how much general awareness of Christianity and church issues there are - certainly in comparison with home. I think if we went into most secondary schools in the UK and asked the teenagers to name a Christian band or artist most would have little or no idea but in the States there would be a positive response. Thus a Spinal Tap type satire on CCM could not work here as no one will get the references but in the USA they would. Whether this is the best way of making a point that needs to be made is, of course, another matter. In my opinion internal problems should be kept on the inside.
