For one thing, it is the only proven use of telepathy that I know of. What you see on the screen is the public visualization of someone else&#39;s dream. OK. To be more accurate the vision is more of a group&nbsp;effort &#8211; costume designer, cinematographer, location scout, casting director, and dozens or hundreds of other &quot;chefs&quot;&nbsp;add their ingredient to the stew. But USUALLY the final party plan is the director&#39;s; his or hers&nbsp;the vision that you get to see. For the most part, the &quot;final cut&quot; is the director&#39;s,&nbsp;he the one who makes what you see on screen most like what he has&nbsp;envisioned. Now granted that can be a good or bad thing, depending on whether the director is Ed Wood or Frank Capra. Then the choice is yours as to whether or not you want a peek into that person&#39;s mind. But it is a kind of telepathy &#8211; a (literally) &quot;feeling from afar&quot; as the term &quot;telepathy&quot; was originally coined by English psychologist Frederick Myers in 1882, even though that feeling is &quot;limited&quot; to visual, auditory and emotional.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tREASON NUMBER TWO OF FOUR\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAnother reason why you should watch movies is that&nbsp;they are&nbsp;cathartic. You can, via sympathy, experience situations and&nbsp;events, that you may never personally get to do first hand. For example, I will not likely ever get to float in zero gravity watching the earth spin from miles above, but there are any number of movies which, with a little imagination, can help you vicariously get that experience, including <em>Gravity<\/em> and <em>The Right Stuff<\/em>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..Next &#8211; Reasons three, four and five out of four &#8212;&#8212; wait??!! what???&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the previous posts I explained my love of movies.
