I deeply believe in the experience of the movies. Wether the movie is something sci-fi and out of this world or a documentary about this world, it’s a magical thing to leave your world for a few hours and get consumed in another’s. Sometimes those others worlds can be something like yours or something that will take you out of your comfort zone all together. Either way its a bit of magic to sit back and be consumed as the light flickers before your eyes and the sounds flood your ears.
Movies are there in good times and in bad times, never offering sincerity or insincerity as some cases maybe. The movies don’t criticize those in attendance, they just attempt to entertain and on that rare occasion try teach you a little something about this island earth called home. Those are the good ones.
Movies can be that first date with someone special, that birthday celebration with those close to you, that afternoon with your friends, or those nights you don’t sleep while you and your buddies pass the time without a care in the world. They can be where you go to pass a few hours and not feel guilty about what it is your doing. They can be that place of comfort, of familiarity, of solace. They can be that place you go and hide when you need sometime to yourself, to figure out what’s going on.
The movies light up the room, put a scare in your step, a laugh in your heart, and a lump in your throat. They are the catalyst for memories that can last a lifetime. They don’t judge, just offer themselves in hopes that you will enjoy. So turn the lights down, grab a friend, a colleague, a loved one, or simply just your coat and let’s go to the movies.
