Distance in Movie

Sometimes we meet a movie which strongly moves us, touches our hearts and makes us think so much deep and long.

Why?

Let's set up a hypothesis as below.

  • Our life is full of distance in various meaning and that is the secret of life.
  • And a kind of excellent movie luckily succeed to disclose the distance hidden in our lives in a flat screen.
  • That's why we are moved.

From that kind of view point of Distance, let me try some analysis on some individual movies in this Distancology.

Purpose is not to criticize Movies in here, but to think about Distance in our lives which is full of mysterious events.

By the way, screen in a theater is very flat. And a frame in a film is also flat image.
Technically we can say movie is an art of flatness which will not allow any distance in that flatness, though it includes continuous distance of 1/24 seconds which is an interval of frames.
