"Consider the significance of the spread of worldwide television channels."

Films are written, produced and released to the world to entertain and create ideas for everyone. There are different types of films such as animated, action, comedy, musicals, and documentaries among all.

Films do not reflect the society of any time and generation because they are creation of arts. Any scene in films is a make-up of an idea, probably the viewer may be affected or influences by the sequences shown on the screen but these images are forgery: when the actor or actors, actress or actresses show motions on film they are not reality. The actors and actresses are paid to shown these motions so films do not reflect the society. When the actress in films show great distress and sorrow these emotion are not true likewise when they show happiness and pleasure these emotion are not true because they are paid much money to play roles as being scripted by director of films’. When the actors are showing extraordinary strength in film, extraordinary actions, these actions are masked by advance technology. So the actions of actors and actresses are artificial and commercial.

At times, films show the happiness or distress link with money: less money show an inferior position, more money shows a superior position over others. The availability of films is artificial. The note use and the coin use are false. They do not reflect the society. The actions of killing harsh brutality do not reflect the reality. We can see in films people are killing each other. Normally these actors are considered to be dead even mourning in films, are artificial. At times the beheading of someone or an animal seems to be true but they are masked to be true once again we come to the final conclusion that films do not reflect the society.

Films do influence the society in various ways. Everybody whose mind is weak thinks that he or she can imitate the actors and actresses and actions shown in films without knowing the material imitations, especially films for children. There are lots of funny things within picture only to create laughter and sense of pleasure and satisfaction on the mind of children. These children, who watch that and this film, think that they can imitate the same actions as are shown in the films and limitable they are. They are very much influenced by actions shown in films and want more and more money to satisfy their want to imitate their stars.

Most often there are conflicts in the family field: parents think in one way and teenager in another way. Thinking that their parents cannot fulfill their wants they turn to friends and other people. Most of the time these friends are not true friends, they give something to get something bigger in return and the some thing impossible so imitators falls in the trap of being influence by films. This influence by films can bring someone to mere slavery of any kind not to name the lowest and degradable action of once own body, that is prostitution. Thinking it to be freedom but do not realize that they are already dunk in rottenness.

Those who are influence by films in other ways, dreaming to have much money, luxuries, palaces, cars, personal planes and all these impossible shown in films, realize how impossible to match pictures shown in films (these impossible dreams: the morning in one capital noon in another evening in another night one capital country in the world). They are making day dreams, being moved by pictures shows in films. Films show only the impossible and it is impossible to let one being influence by actions and motions shown in films.

“Violence breeds violence”, the youngsters may learn sadism by watching films featuring sadistic brutality most writers, directors and producers feel the need to include violence and graphic scenes in their works to art. For example: comparing between the 1967 movie Bonnie and Clyde and other movies today. The movie Bonnie and Clyde shows a scene in which the couple dies a slow-motion death. If one made a graph of the bar for violence from the time of Bonnie and Clyde to Taxi Driver to Natural Born Killers and Saving Private Ryan it would be an ascending line. This increment in violence is caused by the advancement in technology and is intended to entertain the viewers. This raises the question: If there is no limit or guide lines to how much or how violent a movie may be then what effect does this have on the people of this world?

Violence is seemingly glorified, honored, and celebrated in mass media and signals to our people that violence is normal, glamorous, and widespread in our society (Brownback, 2001). Violence is not only found on television and in movies, but also in other forms of media such as music videos, cartoons, and video games. The violence seen in our media has a negative impact on both adults and children alike. When these messages of hate are targeted to children, it is not only scandalous, but also dangerous.

However, most films have positive and negative scenes, motion and as well as conclusion. But unfortunately most viewers tend to consider all negative examples from films and finally as conclusion films only influences our society as people rarely takes out good lesson to apply in life.
