25 Most Controversial Films

with one comment

Entertainment Weekly gives us this list of their choices for the 25 most controversial movies ever made.

It’s a pretty good list. And though I predicted what they’d put in the number one slot, I am amazed that Brokeback Mountain wasn’t even on the list. Have depictions of two men having sex on screen become so mainstream that they aren’t controversial anymore?

On a separate but related topic, Brian Godawa’s book Hollywood Worldviews is a great place to get a better understanding of how movies communicate and influence ideas.

  1. That’s interesting Brokeback didn’t make the list…it’s an intersting list…controversial is a broad term.
