520 | |a Throughout the course of Christian history, the nature and identity of Jesus Christ has been interpreted in a wide variety of ways. In this article, I will suggest that the root tensions between the divine and human natures of Christ, as epitomized in the Alexandrian and Antiochene controversies of the Patristic Church, find a contemporary expression in the abundance of Christ-figures that have emerged in contemporary film. Attention will be given to the functions that such figures perform, and their relationship to the Person of Christ as understood by the respective high' (Alexandrian) and low' (Antiochene) schools of Christology. I will conclude that, provided sufficient emphasis is placed on the humanity of the Christ-figure, a process of redemption analogous to that found in traditional Christian accounts of the Person of Christ is operative through such films. | ||
