SHOULD GOOD MOVIES BE INSTRUCTIVE AND ENTERTAINING AT THE SAME TIME?
     AS ONE OF THE MAIN WAYS OF PEOPLE'S DAILY ENTERTAINMENT ACTIVITIES, MOVIES HAVE GRADUALLY PENETRATED INTO PEOPLE'S LIFE. NO MATTER OLD PEOPLE OR CHILDREN, NO MATTER BOYS OR GIRLS, THEY WILL BE EXPOSED TO MOVIES. THEREFORE, MOVIES SHOULD BE ENTERTAINING AS WELL AS INSTRUCTIVE.
     FIRST OF ALL, MOVIES ARE THE FIRST CHOICE FOR MANY OF US. THIS DETERMINES THAT MOVIES MUST BE ENTERTAINING ENOUGH. ENTERTAINING MOVIES CAN MAKE PEOPLE RELAXED AND HAPPY, PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. IF THERE IS NO ENTERTAINMENT, IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT ENOUGH PEOPLE TO ENJOY THE FILM, WHICH WILL LEAD TO THE FILM LOSING ITS ORIGINAL MEANING.
     SECONDLY, MOVIES ARE A MEDIA TOOL WITH VERY STRONG PROPAGANDA AND INFECTION ABILITY. NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF THOUGHTS THE MOVIE CONVEYS, PEOPLE WILL BE AFFECTED AND WILL UNCONSCIOUSLY CHANGE THEIR BEHAVIOR. THIS DETERMINES THAT OUR FILMS SHOULD FOLLOW MAINSTREAM VALUES, CONVEY POSITIVE ENERGY, AND GUIDE THE CORRECT IDEOLOGICAL DIRECTION THROUGH THE IDEAS CONVEYED TO THE AUDIENCE. BECAUSE THE AGE OF AUDIENCE OF THE MOVIE IS VERY WIDE, THE MOVIE IS A REAL SUCCESS ONLY WHEN IT HAS CERTAIN INSTRUCTIVE SIGNIFICANCE AND PROVOKE PEOPLE TO THINK.
     IN MY OPINION, ENTERTAINING MOVIES ARE IMPERFECT AND LACK THE INSTRUCTIVE SIGNIFICANCE THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE. BESIDES, MOVIES THAT HAVE ONLY INSTRUCTIVE SIGNIFICANCE ARE ALSO IMPERFECT AND WILL NOT RESONATE WITH PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY ARE BORING. ONLY WHEN A MOVIE IS ENTERTAINING AND INSTRUCTIVE CAN IT BE CONSIDERED A TRULY PERFECT MOVIE.
