What I've Learnt from Movies II

So lately, I've been watching movies alot. Ok, not lately, I've been watching movies alot all my life (as an aspiring director). Now, though, I assess them for ethical value, humour, dialogue etc. and I've figured out that there's a lot to learn. These are some of the very unconventional lessons I've received from ten movies that I've seen.


1. The Ides of March (and David Petraeus)- Old men in power have some dirty laundry to do    and that is beyond Persil.

2. The Expendables 2-  The Muscles from Brussels and Rocky may have aged but they still have the adrenaline!

3. The Avengers- I'm not the only one who really loves shawarma.

                                            btw, Craving Shawarma at the moment

4. The Prestige- Revenge can be quite lethal...for the one plotting it.

5. Up In The Air- I should probably start collecting frequent flyer miles for the future. Emirates maybe?

6. Real Steel- Robots may be the future of everything.

7. Miss Congeniality- To win a pageant, you need to mention 'world' and 'peace'...now, it's more like 'hunger' and 'terrorism'.

8. Lincoln- Daniel Day Lewis may just be Abe's descendant. #crazyresemblance or #reallykickassmakeup?

9. Doubt, Iron Lady, Mamma Mia,∞-Meryl Streep is the meaning of actress.

10. Pitch Perfect- A Capella means BEAUTY and EUPHONY.

These are the lessons and there's more coming from my view of the wacky world of cinematography. They're good lessons right? :)
