movies?

This is quite a provoking article from RELEVANT magazine on why we love watching movies. Obviously the artistic medium discussed here is cinema, but I found several of the statements made in this article applicable to why I love art, photography, etc. Seeing reality through a different set of eyes. A set of eyes that transforms the mundane into something beautiful.

Anyway, just wanted to bookmark this article and share a quote from it by Paul Tillich.....“in the proximate, the daily, the apparently small, there is hidden in truth the metaphysical; the here-and-now is the place where meaning is disclosed, where our existence must find interpretation, if it can find an interpretation at all.”
