Some people believe that the only purpose of films is to entertain. Others say films should have educational value. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
The purposes of watching
films
have been a topic of concern in modern society. While some people
consider movies
a source of entertainment with no other additional values, others believe in their educational benefits. As far as this
is concerned, one cannot neglect the education tonal aspect of these productions.
Films
, regardless of genre, are a means of entertainment for people
. Seeing a movie means people
can temporarily escape from their daily life, which may help them relieve their stress and be mentally healthier. There are, in addition
to this
, some specific genres of movies
such
as comedy, which can make people
laugh and become elated. In brief, films
are true of great entertainment benefit.
It would be, however
, an exaggeration to state that the sole purpose of movies
is to entertain because other aspects of them such
as the educational one are not negligible. Viewers have been using films
to learn foreign languages, in a sense that listening to people
conversing in a film is a great way to hear native actors and actresses speaking their language. Some others have, furthermore
, watched films
to learn about the culture and ways of life of other places on Earth. An excellent example of this
is the documentary "love market in Sapa", from which people
may learn about Sapa, a famous tourist attraction in the north of Vietnam.
In conclusion, movies
can truly entertain people
and simultaneously provide them with great educational benefits, such
as learning a new language or culture. It is predicted that more people
will consider films
as essential learning materials in the future.Submitted by thanhhai29102000 on
