    And what about the DISTRACTION from our own lives into that of the ones on screen. Its easier to live through someone else's difficulties in life than our own. We can let go of our own life for a moment and distract us from our own problems. So at the end we can step back into our own lives with new selfconfronting knowledge that was more difficult to obtain when it was directly confronting us. It gives us the opportunity to freely reflect upon our own lives in the manner we personally see fit, up until the point it becomes too confronting. (Thinking while typing here..) Also we hope to get answers to life we dont have yet.. That hope of understanding EVERYTHING in life, is greatly stimulated when watching a movie. Because the information in a movie is given in a specific timeframe (lets say 1,5 hours). When we (think we) understand the relationship between all the events that happen inside the movie, in combination with our own knowledge, we get the idea we understand EVERYTHING, which is a concious minds goal. But we dont understand EVERYTHING after watching a movie..

    You can never change the feeling of cinema. When you watch Avengers, you feel like a hero. When you watch a teen film, you sympathise with the characters. When you watch a love story, you watch a picturises version of the life that you want to live. Sometimes, it can give us hope, even if everything is scripted, that wonderful things really do happen.

Yes, movies don't cure cancer but it also true that it gives so much power to bear the pain till everything gets over.

    It is almost impossible to properly describe the 'why' of film watching. Your explanation is generic and, imho, the reason of our indulgence in any art form, not specifically cinema. The reason I watch films, or rate cinema as the highest art form, is that films combine the best of all art forms. There is the best of literature (dialogue, voice over, lyrics), music, dance, photography etc, and it is all available within a manageable time period of roughly two hours. I also agree that many of us watch films as a means of escapism. But as you have aptly explained, films do have a higher purpose which needs to be understood.

    There is no other art form which directly presents you the most intimate/private moments of a human being's life. Music, dancing, photography and paintings etc. are expressions of those private moments but nowhere close to the exact moment. Theater acting is by far the closest form of art I think to looking at a character at its utmost vulnerability because the character is right in front of you. You are watching the actual person rather than his projection. Theater and cinema have their respective pros and cons but for the sake of simplicity we can club both cinema and theater into one since Cinema is practically derived from theater and plays.

    It's good to know someone with an expertise in film-making (and watching) as you bear the same approach for watching films as I do. In fact I think this approach can be extended to judge a film "good" or "bad". A Good film shall always in the end (with all its adventures with camera, lights, sound, movement, timing, etc) let you empathize with its characters. A film which after all its grandeur and action fails to generate a yearning to relive those moments in the viewer's mind is not 'enough' in my book. Keep up the good work

    A very well put together video, Vinit. I almost agree with all your points. I'm yet to read Tarkovsky's 'Sculpting in Time', but the name itself is interesting. Making a film is literally sculpting in time. We watch films because we can literally be in the shoes of some character existing in some other time/space and enjoy his/her story. When it comes to the choice of film, I wonder how people spend hundreds of rupees to watch shit and be okay with it. Anyway, keep up the good work. Cheers!

    I am a millennial which makes me hunt for a purpose continuously. I am a filmmaker too. So when I witness some controversy or really dark things about film industry whether it be Bollywood or Hollywood, I sit back and start to rethink "WHY AM I DOING THIS?", "IS THIS THE PLACE I WANNA BE? THIS PLACE WHERE THE IGNORANT GLOW THE SAME OR SOMETIMES BRIGHTER THAN THE BRILLIANT..?" and I feel this existential crisis burning inside me. That is the time I come here and watch this video. It gives me my purpose back, it makes me realize the place of movies in society and how I can affect this art form. Suddenly, those dark things I witnessed vanish and the main purpose starts to look clear. Thanks Cinema Beyond Entertainment!

    I've travelled the world, so I don't need movies to take me there. But now as I get older, I find that I can experience the early 1980's, by cooking a turkey, putting together a salad and watching The Big Chill. Movies don't really take us to a place. They take us to a place in time, and if you're over 60, that time has gone. So cook the best spaghetti sauce you can, break open a fine Chianti and watch The Godfather. It's as close as we'll get to our happy pasts. Fine food, fine movies. Our youth.

    Movies have everything which we want to get in life . Even short films also . Those 2.5 hrs or 3hrs. movie does every efforts to make you (us) happy to give something us . Movies are never only for entertainment . They are beyond that . They envision our life which we can't vision through normal eyes 😊 . They provide us the escape plans . They motivate us , manipulate us ( in positive sense ) . In short they just make us different before and after watching that . Means before starting some movie , I am different and after finishing it I will be different. It will inject some change in me . It may be little or big but it will be there . And another thing it may be life constructing or else it may be life destructing . It depends on us 😊😊😊
