Movies

I saw a lot of newly released films on big screens, when I was a student. One day, I saw "Seven" and "Predator" in a row. I felt like throwing up, because so many people were killed cruelly in the movies. Then, I felt that movies were silly and far from real, and I didn't like movies so much.

But now, I like movies. I watch a lot of movies on WOWOW. It broadcasts a variety of movies not only Hollywood-made. I can see movies that are made in a variety of countries. They show me the original cultures that they each have. Almost all movies are fiction, but I feel that movies tell me the truths about the country more than news. I think that news can only tell phenomena.

Movies tell me the differences of cultures, but they tell me universal things. They are the human spirit, mind, and heart. Great movies can get them through to me. I think great movies were awarded at Cannes.

Wonderful movies make me so emotional. When I see them in a row, I am tired. So I like entertaining movies too.
