This chapter is mainly about what film is. Film is a narrative story that gets a psychological identification with the viewer. It is simply light and shadows where as a photograph is more tangible. The illusion of reality is shown in film through manipulation of time. Films are like dreams which is why we enjoy movies with the lights off. Films are mythological meaning not that they are lies or fake, but stories. A shot is a serious take before the film is edited. Sequences are several shots with the same goal in mind by the cast, editor, and director. Classical Hollywood Cinema means that Hollywood is a business. Some people may see it as an art, seeing the story with form and lines and reason. In Madonna's "Like A Prayer" video, a lot of controversy was brought over the struggle with religion and racism. An interpretation of the video may be seen as Madonna's character having a struggle with a religious experience. The icon comes alive and essentially makes love to Madonna which is seen by the innocent kissing and passionate touching when he whispers in her ear. It ends with the icon not being able to do anything else and Madonna has to take over and do what is right. Films tell stories and make a statement about something as well.
