The Power of Myth(1988)
The Power of Myth is a documentary series that captures six intimate conversations between mythologist Joseph Campbell and journalist Bill Moyers.

Campbell draws on his decades of scholarly work to reveal the universal patterns underlying world religions, literature, and storytelling. Moyers's probing questions guide viewers through Campbell's ideas about the hero's journey, the role of sacrifice, and how ancient narratives remain relevant to modern life. The dialogues are thoughtful and accessible, making complex mythological concepts engaging for general audiences. This landmark series became influential in popular culture and remains essential viewing for anyone interested in comparative mythology, spirituality, and the deeper significance of the stories we tell ourselves.
