Movies have a way of bringing up nostalgic feelings and past memories of previous events in our lives. It is amazing how a movie can cause you to take a mental journey into the past. The scenes, events and plots of certain movies seem to mimic certain encounters we once had in our lives.
A typical romance movie can mean different things to different people. While a scene in one movie may cause a person to remember the day they fell in love, it may cause another to think back to the day when their troubles in life all began. Movies plots and scenes have an emotional connection to our past.
Some love and romance stories are based on real life events. The circumstances surround the plots are very similar to the circumstances people face today. Though the scenes and locations of the story may vary, the conditions such as meeting a new person for the first time on a cruise ships are all the same.
The same can be said of true crime stories. I am a big fan of Dateline MBC and every now and then they will do a show on stolen cars. Whenever I watch episodes like those, I am reminded of the day when my own vehicle was stolen and it brings out deep seeded anger. I love it when car thieves are caught.
Scary films are in a class of their own. They often remind us of a time when we were once scared of the dark or of the thought of creepy noises echoing in the night as the wood and furniture settled. When I was younger, I hated leaving closet doors in my bedroom partially opened. Similar movie scenes often remind me of those times.
Why do moves evoke emotional power over us? There are many reasons. Perhaps the great of all is that most scripted films are based on real life scenarios, regardless of how comical or horrible they may be. It is this emotional connection that makes us sit for hours on end each month watching our favorite movies.
Good movies not only take us back in time, they also inspire us to reach for better things in the future too. They have a tendency to make us feel warm and hopeful when you watch a person achieve enormous success against all odds. After all, who does not like an underdog?
Movies will always have a place in the American way of life. They will continue to make us laugh and sometimes cause us to shed a tear or two. Either way, movies have the power to make us reflect on what is considered important and to muse over what has been less significant as we watch one movie at a time.
