A Christian-Friendly Hollywood?

HOLLYWOOD - Just like in any other business, Christians are working hard in the entertainment industry.

But other than producing the occasional "Chronicles of Narnia" or "Passion of the Christ," Hollywood's often felt like enemy territory...not understanding the Christian audience, maybe not even caring to cater to it.

For years now in the culture wars, it's been Hollywood versus the Christians. But both sides are starting to wonder if there can be a détente that's mutually beneficial.
