BRINKMAN MARTIEN, E. The cinematic hidden Christ -His invisible divinity and his visible humanity. STJ [online]. 2017, vol.3, n.2, pp.299-317. ISSN 2413-9467.  http://dx.doi.org/10.17570/stj.2017.v3n2.a13.

If we want to reflect upon the impact of the many 'hidden Christ'- images in modern films at a theologically responsible way, we need to incorporate that reflection into our doctrine of revelation. That will imply that we have to re-open the classical GospelCulture discussion. Especially in the United States we can recognize a lot of original approaches to this issue in Reformed circles (Wolterstorff", Dyrness, Begbie, Seidell, etc.). The main question to be put in this article will be: How can we develop criteria to assess the depiction of the divine in these films?
