I don't think either matters, provided that the movie has a Christian message that appeals to Christian (and general) audiences.

Yep, it's super-easy to keep secrets these days, especially from networked groups. :-/ What makes it not matter much is Focus Features. {nm}

It's not about keeping a secret, it's about if a group gets excited enough to make a big deal out of it, and whether it takes.

"Fictional story" (as DL says) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Rice#Renunciation_of_Christianity (as DL omits) will limit upside. {nm}

Darren Aronofsky is an atheist and Noah got standing ovations from Christian audiences.

Aronofsky is an atheist, Noah made 100M and I don't there is a limited upside (as suggested above) based on A. Rices beliefs.

That was Noah, and DA was more faithful to the story than Rice's fictional child Christ "... Out of Egypt.". DA also grew up religious...

Besides the articles that were posted here around the opening"...one packed AMC theater in Santa Monica gave the film a standing ovation..."

Well, okay. :-) Santa Monica is not exactly the Bible Belt though, and Hollywood industry folk could've been standing and applauding. {nm}

Aronofsky is Jewish, not Atheist. Modern Christian definitions of "faith* are wholly unrelated to any Jewish tradition.
