Some believe that it is beneficial to show foreign films while others feel this can have a negative impact on local culture. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Movies
are one of the most popular entertainment industries in the world. Some
people
think that showing foreign
films
will affect local
culture
.
However
, I still believe that
this
has a positive effect on
people
in general. Some
people
think that watching foreign
movies
will lead to many bad influences on local
culture
. Young
people
today are very interested in watching foreign
films
not only because of the content of the film but, it is
also
because of the character's appearance. They are easily influenced by the characters in the movie
such
as the costumes, hair and makeup, characters in the movie.
For example
, Vietnamese young
people
always update new fashion styles after they watch foreign
films
such
as breaking out, revealing outfits or even dyeing their hair colourfully.
This
will make older
people
dislike and feel that young
people
are gradually losing the beauty of local cultural traditions. Especially, the popularity of foreign
films
can inhibit the development of domestic
films
. Many domestic film directors feel worried when the tendency to watch foreign
films
is always higher than domestic ones.
Besides
, the entertainment industry is growing, it
also
brings a lot of benefits to
people
. Foreign
films
help
people
better understand the
culture
of different countries. It
also
helps them improve their vocabulary or listening skills while they watch foreign
movies
.
For example
, my sister always spends a lot of her free time watching Korean
movies
, not only because of the good content of the movie, but
also
because it helps her understand more about Korean
people
, food, and
culture
. Country.
Besides
, now my sister is able to explore the beautiful places in Korea by herself as well as speak basic communication sentences with the locals when she is travelling without a guide. In conclusion, the excessive use of foreign
films
also
creates many disadvantages for local
culture
.
However
, I think foreign
movies
also
help us to know more about the
culture
of other countries. From there, expand the international vision.
