I was watching the movie "Waqt" which is a typical hindi movie drama. I had my children sitting with me and watching it. They were not too pleased because they preferred to play Wii. Since we have only one TV, they came over to ask me to play and I asked them to wait and they happened to sit next to me and watched it. I watched the expressions on their faces during the movie and realised that movies triggered different emotions.
In life, we are not always prepared for all the situations we will be thrown into. Sometimes the hypothetical situations we watch, help our brain to trigger thoughts in the background on how we would handle those incidents. We think about the responses of the characters and judge and think of how things could have been done better. I think these mental exercises do help us prepare for the life's marathon just like running on the treadmill is often how runners prepare for a marathon.
So a movie a week might just help us face life with confidence :)
