Interpreting The Movie Inception
1. What do you think of when you hear the word “movie?” Has your perception changed since reading this chapter? In what ways.
When I hear the word “movie” I thought of a story with pictures essentially. After reading the chapter, movies are so much more complex. As stated in this chapter, “A movie is able to move the viewer through time and space.” With a movie you can understand the narrative so clearly on how they make edits. For example, in the movie Inception; when Cobb was explaining to Ariadne about what happened to his wife Mal, the fil switched to what Cobb saw Mal jumping off the building, back to Cobb explaining to Ariadne, and back to his memory of him having to leave his home. Movies make the audience become involved emotionally throughout the narrative, and keep that audience with the detail the directors put in the movie.

How is the experience of seeing a move different from watching a play? Or reading a book? Viewing a painting or photograph.
It’s different from reading a book, or viewing a picture/painting because a movie has motion and a narrative to go along with it. It’s different from a play is similar to my answer above, a play doesn’t have the detail a director could have from being in one scene, to cutting to a dream, then focus on a characters facial expression. Movies have more detail than anything listed.
3. Why has the grammar of the film evolved to allow audience to absorb the movie meaning intuitively?
Most people use the language they hear in movies, therefore making it better understood by the viewers.
4. In what ways do movies minimize viewers' awareness that they are experiencing a highly manipulated, artificial reality?
The movie to use invisibility or cultural invisibility, because that makes audience understand movie.
