In the dynamic Behind the Curtain 3, author Marc LeVitre once again pulls back the curtain to reveal Christian spiritual messages in mainstream films. This time, the themes covered are fantasies, war movies, fallen characters, movies about perseverance, and historic fiction.
As the third part of his own trilogy, LeVitre thoroughly reviews The Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Narnia trios. He also includes recent smashes like Lincoln and Skyfall. As a contrast he includes films based on true stories, a few independent films, and some classics. In all cases, as before, the movies have messages that have impacted LeVitre in some fashion (intellectually, emotionally, and sometimes both), and the author’s intention is to reach those who also enjoy stories with a moral (but may not yet understand the full impact). “Out of sight in; insight out,” he says.

Since the beginning, LeVitre, a pastor’s son, has been looking for the moral of the story, and by doing so, has been entertained, but more importantly, has been enlightened. LeVitre has been proud to call New Hampshire home since 1968.
