We spend a lot of time consuming "entertainment" in all of its forms. But whether it's movies, television, video games, music, sports, or even literature, these things do more than just offer an escape from our world for the sake of pleasure. When done right, they offer a window into a deeper experience of our own world and a connection to a transcendent world in our midst.

Jackie Chan's Police Story (1985): You've probably seen Jackie Chan in American movies later in life, but have you ever seen him in his prime? Police Story is his directorial debut and it was an incredible hit in China. Too bad few have ever seen it in the West. by Everyday Liminality
