Have you ever affected emotionally by a movie. In this
world many of the people are motivated by the movies.
Why
do we get affected by movies
How movies affect our emotions
How did you feel the last time you saw a movie?
When was the last time a movie strongly affected your
emotions?
And why do some people get affected by certain movies
while others don't?
When people watch a movie they happiness because he
shares the same problems with him.
In other words, we identify with the actor who resembles
our life the most and based on that choice we made our emotions change.
Because your subconscious mind can't really differentiate
between a real and an imaginary experience it usually believes that you have
gone through what the actor you identified with went through.
That's why you might get an ego boost after watching your
hero saving the world simply because your mind believed that you did it!
Why
do some people get more affected than others by movies
Why do some people cry during movies while others not?
While emotional sensitivity has a lot to do with being affected by a movie
still this doesn't explain why the same sensitive person gets affected by a
certain movie and not another.
People usually get affected the most by a movie when they
get reminded of what's going on in their lives. A friend of mine once told me
that she felt so sorry for lambs when she knew that they were about to get
slaughtered.
She told me that sometimes she couldn't sleep because of
thinking about the poor lambs all night. When i talked with her a little more i
discovered that those lambs unconsciously reminded her of the helplessness she
felt during certain points of her life.
In other words, the movies you see can remind you of an
awful experience (or an awesome one) you have been through and as a result change
your emotions.
A movie can remind you of something bad you did
Sometimes a certain scene in a movie can remind you of
something you feel guilty about.
That old weak lady you saw in the movie affected you
emotionally because she reminded you of your mother whom you don't treat well.
In other words, you don't just identity with the movie
hero but you also connect the movie characters with the ones in your real world
if a match was found.
Everything i described in this post usually happens on
the unconscious level, in other words, you wont be able to figure out why you
were affected by a certain scene before you start consciously connecting the
dots.
The next time your emotions change after seeing a movie
try to find out what happened because this could provide direct clues about the
things that need to get fixed in your life.
