Escape real life: watch a movie

Nicole Pullen, Charger Staff

This page is dedicated to what we love best – movies.

Since the first moving picture was released, Americans’ favorite pastime has been watching movies. People are willing to dish out close to ten dollars for a mere two hours of entertainment. Some movies give us a chance to see far-off places and meet unusual characters; others allow us to see ourselves in the people on screen. Actors and actresses give us glamorous people to admire or hate; which ever, they still entertain us. Some films have the ability to make us feel better about our lives or perhaps motivate us to change something about ourselves. Movies can cheer us up, scare us, make us sad, or make us laugh. For the length of the film, we are able to forget our own problems and concentrate on those of others.
