Movies are a special manner to expressing emotions, experiences, ideas or philosophies of life to share and spread them abroad. Like a book you can share a concept but you can also illustrate it with images that penetrate the mind; in this way you can remember the concept or comprehend it more deeply. For example, when you read in a book about a prairie with a beautiful sunset, you can imagine what you want but also you can present that scene in a picture as you want and draw it as you have it in mind.
I like old movies; I think many of them can touch your soul and heart in spite of the color (B+W). I think their directors were more concerned about the message contained in them than only in the things that will help them to attract the mind of the people to them. For me, a good movie is not that which uses scenes of passion to take the attention of the public but those which contain scenes of courage, loyalty and enduring life. “Casablanca” is one classic I like.
On the other hand, another issue is the special effects throughout the movies; obviously, in these times they are not only fantastic but also realistic. They can give that special touch to a character to achieve something unimaginable. For example, from a man who can fly or execute wonderful movements to a realistic imaginary city full of creatures that only can exist in the mind of the director and in that place.
Although there are many opinions about advantages with technology in our time, old movies reflect not only a good job with the “ancient high tech” but also the art of good minds. I think they didn’t need to have any software to create good films. I think they are more authentic in their content and in this aspect they were better tan many of the movies of our time.
