WHY MOVIES ARE SO IMPORTANT<br />
To Restrict Creativity is to Restrict<br />
the very Nature of the Creator<br />
"The meaning of life is the most urgent of<br />
questions" --Albert Camus (Existentialist thinker).<br />
In “Movies and the Meaning of Life” author Kimberly<br />
Blessing points out that movies can help us reflect<br />
on five of life’s most important questions:<br />
1) What is reality and how can I know it?<br />
2) How can I find my true identity?<br />
3) What the significance of my interactions with<br />
others?<br />
4) What’s the point of my life?<br />
5) How ought I to live my life?<br />
The idea behind <strong>Visual</strong> <strong>Hollywood</strong> is that Movies can<br />
and must play an essential role helping us explore<br />
the meaning of our existence and our life together.<br />
No other quest is more necessary or important.<br />
Movies are powerful. Movies bring personal<br />
meaning, and can contribute to a peaceful world.<br />
Cinematic story telling can be a transforming event.<br />
<strong>Visual</strong> <strong>Hollywood</strong> takes<br />
an existential approach<br />
to life. We celebrate<br />
with human freedom.<br />
We use movies and the<br />
arts as a means of<br />
understanding the<br />
human condition and<br />
our collective relation<br />
to the world around us.<br />
Our basic quest is:<br />
1. To know what it<br />
means to be human in<br />
the world.<br />
2. The pursuit of human<br />
freedom.
