Showbiz is on high today. Countries like USA, France, and UK make welfare on cinema and other media related articles. There are trends and shooting tricks, which make the audience, tremble. So create a feeling of a dream and utopia that makes people come back as much as they can!
That’s good! At least many of us think so. It is part of our modern reality, of what we are and the movie is a picture of our future or the time we would like to live in! Now it sounds wild and murky. This may or may not be recognized by our conscious, but this is THE school, where our children go, this is our temple where we worship the creator, this is our society which we try to understand, this is our world and those are we playing the parts of bad and good guys. Remember Shakespeare: “Whole life is a play and we are the players in it”?
Why do we talk about movie in a human rights topic? If the movie (also including TV, radio, mobile phone and Internet) is our life, than they are our rules of moral and behavior and social values. Not the official legal framework (domestic laws, orders, bills or international documents, like: conventions, treaties and agreements), which is weird to the every-day man.
We feel relaxed when we see others suffer, we feel passion if other die, we worship violence as the only solution for our problems. To kill is a remedy for our vulnerable memory. We dream to live in a world of killings and in a world full of hatred. If it were different our interests and hobby would be different. For kinds it is more interesting to play with water canons or imaginary fire weapons than with model cars and other creative games. So a kids perception of life transforms, but rarely changes as only the so called “social respect” prevents us from doing “childish” thing in real. In case (mainly unpredicted situation), when mind fails the “childish” (or original) nature prevails. In Hungarian there is a proverb that says “More with mind then with power” or the Russian one “If power is given, mind don’t needed”. A similar example what happens if the mind “switches off” – the power “switches in”.
We follow those whom we respect, we try to imitate them. We say if he/she can, why not me. We always want to be strong, so when or if we are week we follow those whom we consider strong. But not always the Rambo or Terminator like guys are strong, not necessarily the bad guys (in movie) are bad (in life). We learn about our heroes from the movie (where they play an imaginary, unrealistic play) or gossips that are the oil of the popularity fire. So mainly we create a fake image of our heroes. It appears like there is no hero, just our image that we follow and which is created by ourselves (or by external help).
