All over the world, people watch foreign films much more than locally-produced films. Why? should the government provide financial support to local film industries?

In recent years,

movies

have gradually become an important part of

people

's lives. It is true that foreign

films

are more popular than local

movies

in some countries and

this

can be explained for several reasons. So the government should assist the local film industry more. There are various reasons why

people

prefer imported

movies

.

Firstly

, some

movies

present local culture and features, and

people

prefer to see these new things rather than things around them.

For instance

, Chinese Kung Fu

films

are considerably famous all over the world. The

second

reason is that film industries in some countries are more developed than the others. Hollywood is a good example of

this

: there are a number of famous actors, directors and other professional technicians in

this

area.

That is

why American

movies

such

as Transformers and Avatar have better special effects and most magnificent scenes. In terms of financial support to local film industries, there is no doubt that the government should give more.

Firstly

, an increase in job positions can be expected followed by a rise in the amount of financial support.

Next

, some

films

can be used as a country's business card to the world; and

then

will attract substantial tourists to

this

country;

finally

bringing far greater returns than an investment to the government.

For example

, millions of

people

come to New Zealand because of the popularity of Lord of The Rings, which is partly funded by the authority. In summary, governments should support more to local movie industries allowing them to produce better works to compete with foreign

films

that dominate the local market currently.
