THE TOP CINEMA INDUSTRIES IN THE WORLD
L E T T E R T O T H E R E A D E R
Through the many pages I have included here on this section of my blog, I intend to take you, as my reader, on a detailed journey to eight of the world’s leading cinema industries. This extensive project has not only opened up myself to new, unfamiliar cultures and exotic locals, but to diverse forms of storytelling that all share rather striking similarities. Even if you don’t have the slightest interest in movies in general, I still encourage you to skim through some of the content I have written here. Now, I’m not here to preach you on the vibrant musicals of India, nor am I here to pressure you into watching a Bruce Lee film (though, I’d feel pretty accomplished if I persuaded you to do so). I simply want to expose you to something new.
As I have come to realize through writing about these different countries, getting out of one’s routine comfort zone can be immensely rewarding. It's easy for us busy individuals to get so caught up in our own lives that we absentmindedly disregard the existence of other things. We constantly live in our own separate bubble. Watching foreign films is perhaps one of very the best ways to truly understand a different culture. Sure, you could read about the customs and morals of a different country from an author’s individual perspective but you wouldn’t truly be witnessing and experiencing it for yourself.
I want to thank you for visiting this corner of my blog, and I hope that the introductory studies I have written here will encourage you to look at the world around you in a different light. So, shall we begin?
