Cinema


 

The screen turns black

A landscape rises before the audience's eyes

Music begins to swell, and my heart begins to beat faster, anticipating what is going to happen next

The credits begin; names appear out of nowhere as the music takes different twist and turns

 Names melt in to the actors playing the parts

 I watch in awe as the protagonists’ parent is killed

A villain announces their plan for world domination

A tragic event pulls distant relatives together

I laugh

I cry

I feel anger

The movie ends

The audience claps
