But every movie has a worldview. For me as a Christian, Jesus didn&#8217;t give us any fudge room on that particular aspect. Just because a story is &#8220;exclusive&#8221; in its truth, I don&#8217;t think that ghetto-izes it.<\/p><p><strong>Christians want <em>truth<\/em> in movies, but not always the depiction of <em>reality<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p><p>Yes. With a Christian audience, sometimes there is hypocrisy. The same people who will see a secular PG-13 or R-rated movie have a different standard if there is violence or sexuality or bad language in a Christian film. I don&#8217;t get that. How is anybody going to tell a really good urban story if these kids from the streets are saying, &#8220;Oh, gosh darn!&#8221;? Sometimes I think how cool it would be <em>not<\/em> to be a Christian and have no boundaries to telling a story. But that will never work with me.
