The Cup is another film that looks at its religion from an internal perspective with a humorous overtone. Seven Years in Tibet looks at the positive change religion can inspire in someone’s life. Since the end of the Hays Production Code (see roots of ratings ), Hollywood films have been critical of religion. Movies such as Keeping the Faith trivialize it, while A Dog of Flanders shows religion in both a positive and negative light.
