Movies, Great Form to Learn

One of the best paths for forget everything and enjoy a moment is watch a movie. The people go to the theater with parents, friends and girlfriend or boyfriends and watch different movies as: comedy, drama and action, and share this especial moment that most of the times is great for everyone. Always exist topics of conversation about movies and everyone is an “expert” of Hollywood when give his opinion about the construction, actors and scene of the film. Well I will try expressing my idea that not is an expert comment, but I think that is very true.

            Beside fun, the movies can teach us some situations of the real live and how resolve, obviously every problem is different but the movie could be a guide and example. This movies don’t are Superman, Batman or something like that, movies that could help you are films that were based in real history or real histories.  What you can learn? Very easy, in the movies you can learn general things as: culture, countries and traditions. Also more specific you can learn about one time as: the seventy and eighty, the people behaviors and other thing that you want, but yes, is a good tool.

            For me, I have some movies that are book of information for my future job. I’m studying to be an officer in the U.S. Army and one of the forms to know what happened in past battles or wars is the movies. One example of that is the film “We Were Soldiers” (2002) that is a representation of a book that wrote the L.t Gen. Harold Moore and Joseph L. Galloway. They were participant of the Vietnam War and after war they prepare this book with the true history of that moment. For ROTC students films like that help us to understand the high risk that exist in every mission, the form to take decisions, the team work and keep the high moral of the unit, but the most important thing is don’t make the same error of the past. For this reason we watch different military movies and series as: “We Were Soldier”, “Saving Private Ryan”, and “Band of Brothers”.   

            As we can see the purpose of the movies isn’t only entertain, we can learn about different things that you want know, obviously the book are better for gather information, but the movies is a good form too. Don’t use any movie, use movies that express the reality of the live, movies based in true history and you will have the necessary information.
