Any movie that affects you is worthwile, whether you consider it a "film" or a "movie."
: : I share some of your views on the delineation between
: : certain kinds of cinema, which is why I use two categories:
: : 1. "movies" - which encompasses movies whose artistry and insight is
: : secondary to their sheer entertainment value.
: : 2. "films" - whose content may not leave you cathartically satisfied
: : but still reward you or achieve something worthy artistically.
: : so when people ask me if I have seen any good films lately,
: : I usually say no, but I saw many good movies.
: I think the same thing, but never thought of it in those terms. I always used the categories entertainment movies and artsy movies for the lack of better terms. I can see clearly now the rain is gone.....
