Spiritual film

WP:OR I don't know that "spiritual" is a typical genre of film like horror or romantic comedy, but it if is, then a properly-sourced article with links that satisfy guidelines should be written. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:17, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge/Redirect to List of religion films, very closely related topic.--Hongkongresident (talk) 02:27, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete While all fiction is spiritual, or at least the case could be made, the expression "spiritual film" does not seem to be notable. Don't merge since "spiritual" and "religious" are not the same thing. I don't think anyone would call "Star Wars" a religious film, although its spiritual background is well-recognized.

- Well, it depends on how you define both words. You've defined spiritual as being something ephemeral, intangible, related to the soul, which is certainly one of the senses of the word. But, for many people, as per the second sense of the word, spiritual can also mean: "2.Of or pertaining to the God or a Church; sacred". Both are acceptable usages, but I think it's better that if a reader does look for spiritual film, he get something very, very closely related like religious films, rather than a red link.--Hongkongresident (talk) 03:03, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - And as for Star Wars not being religious, well, we've got an entire article to cover that: Philosophy and religion in Star Wars. ;) --Hongkongresident (talk) 03:04, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    - Until the deletionists notice it. :-) -Steve Dufour (talk) 14:36, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A Google search shows tons of websites talking about "spiritual films," including Beliefnet.com which gives awards for the best spiritual films of the year. So certainly an article is possible. Steve Dufour (talk) 07:19, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
