The saying "A picture is worth a 1000 words" refers to the thought that complex stories can be depicted with just a single still image, or that an image might be more influential than a substantial amount of text. It likewise aptly characterizes the goals of visualization where large amounts of data must be absorbed fast. A great inspirational movie will build in anticipation of elemental success for the star that seems to go through some sort of personal hell early in the film. When that success arrives, the audience will frequently feel like rising and cheering. We all know how simple it would be for the star to just say "what's the use?" and then quit. It takes personal fortitude to keep going. Many of us don't have it. So, once we see it we cheer.
Individuals love a winner, but individuals really love the man or woman who defeats hardship and triumphs. When you walk out of a movie with that type of conclusion you feel like all is well with the world. It's like justice has been served on our hero and it was fun to see. Good for him, good for her, good for them.
Even though the triumph on the screen isn't ours, we like how it affects the star of the show. There's some personal satisfaction we take from the goodness we discover. How do you feel when your team wins the big game? We know that the victory doesn't rank up there with world peace but the excitement is genuine. Why is that? Well, our team won and we were a part of it. We sweat bullets till the win is guaranteed. We sweat life till the film star comes up a winner. Whew! You need to view these movies to have that same feeling. I'm going to personally insist that you see all of these pictures that I'll review for you.
