Movies are definitely an enjoyment to people. Sometimes they make us laugh, and sometimes they give us lessons. They have their own unique style, and this style might be the one that can make us joyful or sad. But where do these styles come from? Obviously, they come from the director who made the movie. Then, where do directors get their styles? I think it is the country. Therefore, it is natural, in my opinion, that movies tell a lot about a country.
First of all, we may agree to the statement, “Movies tell a lot about a country.” by observing what their stories are about. If a country produces a lot Sci-Fi movies, we may declare that that country is scientifically developed.
In addition, looking at the characters from the movie, a lot can be told about a country. It is true that movies sometimes show us weird and absurd character that does not represent normal people, but, usually, there would be a character who the audiences may sympathize with. These characters are almost always exist in a movie, since most directors want people to think they are the ones in the movie and imagine what they would’ve done in the same situation. In other words, these characters exist to attract the audiences. Through these people, we could know things such as what the country had gone through and how the citizens usually think.
Furthermore, the time and space the movie takes place specifically tell us about their country or someone else’s country. For example, the movie “Patriot” shows me what America was like during the Revolutionary War. Also, the movie “8 Miles” shows me what it looks like in the poor side of United States.
In conclusion, I agree that movies show a lot about a country. The story, the characters, the background are the things that help me to learn about a country through movies. Movies are valuable not only because we enjoy them, but also because we can learn from them. | |
