I, Me and Cinema

Ok... I'm not going to talk about the history, evolution and consequences of movies here! I'm very confident that a majority of us consider watching movies, "the first thing" over a weekend or a holiday or if we have an evening to spare. I have heard from the older generation that they had a similar fascination for Harikathas (a medieval form of story-telling-singing), Novels, Street-plays (Indian version of stage plays in those days) and bioscopes (Some of us might have seen these devices. Imagine how discovery channel would have been - if it had actually been - a century ago.). I feel this is the best example of minds working beyond the logic and reasoning. I would like to call it the humane tendency (or it's more an anamoly?). We completely surrender our 2-3 hours of our valuable time to this magic world. Not heeding to our logical part of the brain most of the times and letting the lesser half - like the better-half - take control of the minute part (which aggregates to a actually a significant part) of our lives, we inevitably become part of the perfect manifestation of our compromise on the state-of-ideal-affairs. Thanks to this blog, I now clearly realize what could have been going through my mind when I had done it so many times in my life.

Bottom-line: I love movies, but necessarily not all. I tried my best to enunciate my complicated feelings above! Your most favorite 5 movies reveal a lot about you, no?
