Matthew Griffin:
Empire of the Sun as Isaiah? (especially Second & Third Isaiah…)
Peter Yan:
The Color Purple is definitely in the Exodus group.
I forgot that Prof. Gill listed A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) as Genesis as well: the birth of Adam.

A.I. arguably runs the gamut, right? I mean, from Genesis to Revelation!
Last thought for this holiday weekend: as the story of a woman’s ultimate triumph, _The Color Purple_ can be grouped with Esther, Ruth, and Judith, and given Celie’s erotic awakening (which I remember well from the book, but can’t recall how prominent it is in the film), The Song of Solomon. “I am black and beautiful, O daughters of Jerusalem” (1:5).
