Movie Lecture Response

      This lecture caused me to reminisce about my childhood experiences with movies. Throughout my childhood, my family would watch various old movies. I would watch a collection of Chaplin movies with my family and would always wonder why the actors walked so weird in the movies. I never dwelled on the question, so I did not know the real reason behind their weird movements until this lecture. In the past, movies were hand cranked and not automatic meaning it was hard to keep up the same rhythm. This was because eventually the person would get tired and the movie would slow down or they would get excited and speed it up. Another experience was my aunt watching tons of old Hindi movies in the romance genre. She would always say "Why won't guys be more like this?" and this is the case where women who watch a lot of romantic movies tend to have higher standards. I noticed that no matter the culture, movies set standards for the world to achieve. When I learned about the demassification solutions that movies tried to offer, I thought of the old wild west movies that my dad used to watch. Under the title it would say, IN TECHNICOLOR, or sometimes it would just say in color. I liked how this lecture related to any experience we had with movies and gave us background information to clear any confusion we had about movies in the past.
