N.D. Wilson
Beloved Independent, 2011, 51 min., $21.99
They classify this 51-minute film as a bookumentary. To watch the 13 chapters of Notes from the Tilt-a-Whirl is a lot like letting someone read a book to you while they wow you with breathtaking imagery that partners delightfully with the topics being addressed.
The film addresses modern philosophies, particularly atheistic philosophies, and confronts them in a bold, bordering on abrasive, head-on manner. If you are looking for a resource to spark discussion about apologetics, this could be the perfect tool for you.
The topics are deep, the cinematic expressions are definitely beautiful, and the production value is high. The camera bounces back and forth between gorgeous vignettes of nature, theology and a frankly honest and at times emotionally vulnerable face to face with N.D. Wilson as he verbally marches through an artful progression of poetic philosophies including evolution, the existence of evil and the resurrection from the dead.
Watching this, you won’t be able to help but see and hear what God has spoken into existence in you and around you. Wilson truly demonstrates our artist, philosopher God and how He can be known on the tilt-a-whirl we call Earth.
