Hi friends. Just wrote some stuff for a friend so thought to add this on blog.
A film technically is called a collection of moving images. But in depth I believe it has several meaning. It can be called the best source of entertainment, highest form of art or a medium for educating a nation. Being an ordinary person I prefer to say “film is a best source of educating with entertainment”.
Because of being a citizen of a country like Pakistan I always had questions like other confused people that films should be a part of our life or not, more over is film necessary? And few days later I came to know the answer of my question. While discussing to a legend writer of my country he told me few simple things. According to him
”Film is a an important part of educating a nation if used in a correct way. Generally people don’t like to listen the big lectures but they will always follow the habits of their Star icons. Now it is up to the film makers that they create positive and constructive roles for the Star icons or they use them to spoil the public ”
While giving answer of my second question he said
“Nature has fixed aesthetic sense in every human being and the hunger of that aesthetic sense needs to be feed and there fore films play an important part because films have the most elements of other artistic forms example music, acting, poetry etc ”.
when I asked him that if films are so necessary then why Lolly-wood is suffering and why film makers are still continuing to make films which are no where to art standards. He smiled and replied
“The way you need to develop your taste for coffee, the same way you need to develop your aesthetic taste. And unfortunately our film makers haven’t developed the taste of our people.”
