Getting to see, sometimes new, or already seen, an array of films and movies, reminding each time you get to see an old movie. It really shows the age of life ... not just us aging ...
I have seen sometimes, unintentionally the way the genres, directors, writers, actors, cinematographers through the times portray the life of times and ways ... non fictional or not. They have screened silent ones, black and white ones, the remakes, romantic, blatant violence, the old fashioned kisses and eroticism through the times. The early advent of colour, the old fashioned titles with '........' to the fancy styles we now have. Sometimes trying to outdo each other, with the opening credit styles too, to capture you into the atmosphere of what is to follow.
Even when you are at home and away from the world, with the news reminding you of your own personal events and the laws of life irritating you ... one can escape to the history and life in a less newsy way ...
