The Godless Girl (1928, silent film). This movie was part of a film collection titled Treasures III: Social Issues in American Film, 1900-1934 (I got it off Amazon). Regarding atheism, The Godless Girl portrays it negatively. In particular, IMO, it seemed to suggest that atheists are closeted theists who are just waiting for a particular experience or miracle in order to become believers.
On the whole, I enjoyed the commentary that the bickering and hostility between extremists of atheism and theism ultimately leads nowhere: IMO, patience, inquisitiveness, and open-minded, constructive dialog are requisite in order for both camps to reach a consensus and establish common ground.
With that said, I'm looking forward to watching the rest of these films. Live long and prosper.
