Life Lessons From Movies Are Very Influential

We learn a lot from movies as society influences to create a movie and in turn movie influences the crowd.

Movies. Movies get influenced by real-life actions and moments and picture them in movies. There are movie stories that are based on real-life incidents like Surya’s Jai Bhim, Aamir Khan’s Dangal, Constance Wu’s Hustlers, and many more like these.

Where society influences the movies that are made, it works another way around as well. Some movies are so strong enough that leave the audience influenced by some habit or behavior or sometimes even to the extent to change practice from any particular culture.

Movies hold a very important power to form individual perspectives, shape their thought, and formulate their behavior, on a larger thought influencing the society. The industry is growing at a greater pace and so is the way audiences perceive the story and get influenced.

In modern days, movies are one of the most impactful and influential sectors. They make us laugh, cry, happy, sad, and love. Every movie business is like a mirror. It reflects what is going on in society and turn, transforms opinions in society.

The movies can influence us as they leave us thinking. They kindle our humanity, make us compassionate and inspire us to do good to people. Along with this, they remind us what and why love is important. It holds the capacity to make our lives worthy – they make us feel alive.

The plots of the movies

Not only on making the world a better place influence, but they also help create awareness of different aspects of life. School-related films like

Mudhal Nee Mudivum Nee (2022), is a beautiful nostalgic movie that talks about the first love everybody has in their school love. The spring of love flowers in the hearts of young teenagers and the impulsive behavior that is carried on when they stay to grow mature. The movie is a bumpy ride of nostalgia and teaches us the mistakes we all did in our first relationship, especially those that started at a very young age during our school days.

Taare Zameen Par (2007), is very beautifully pictured. It shows the pain every little one goes through in boarding school. The pain to be separated from family and friends, very importantly from Mother. But life at the boarding can turn out to be very special with pretty people around. How just one teacher at the boarding has changed the life of a young child is very subtly shown.

War-based movies help us understand the atrocities people go through when they are left homeless. They awaken a sense of empathy in people.

Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017), a fictional movie where a king is patronized. How selfless a king should be towards his subject and how the word of his mother can never be disobeyed is very neatly pictured. A Good King is described as ‘good’ only after looking at his subjects. And the movie shows how subjects make the Prince a King and want him to rule them.
Tora Tora Tora (1970) is yet again a real-life based movie that talks about the Pearl Harbor attack in the tragic American History.

Every movie is unique in that it is screen played, directed, and produced. Each movie has its purpose, some inspire us with reality while some with the message it gives. But it is intriguing to know the power it holds on society’s minds and how influential it gets in every aspect of our lives.
