Lindvall et al.'s account is a study of a synthesis of the impact of film comedies with religious themes. By carrying out this study, using strategies from theology, humour studies, and film studies, the authors have succeeded in filling a gap in knowledge and provided scholars of all the aforementioned disciplines with an insight into this fascinating intersection of seemingly incompatible elements.
