Faces are the force behind a story, and we need to see every single detail.
The last few years have been a strange time for movie theaters.
Strange may not be the right word, but it captures the feeling you have when you’re looking at the movies playing at a theater near you and notice that all there is to watch is big-budget action movies.
This is a worrying trend that many have been noticing when it comes to what the industry believes should be on a big screen and what belongs on a streaming service. Typically, event movies go to the theater and might have a same-day release on a streaming platform, and independent and mid-budget movies live and die on a streaming platform.
There are many reasons why people may not see going to the movie theaters as worth it. From people talking during the movie to someone releasing a bat in the theater to potential infection from any strand of COVID-19, many people don’t see any reason why they should go out when they could watch the movie from the comfort of their couch.
