Only often we sit in a chair and just watch. It is clear that you need to be aware and observe, but it is important to participate in your life, to be present in it. After all, in fact, you can jump out of your chair and jump into the screen of this TV and cinema, and you will not crash against the wall, life is a game, and you, like Harry Potter, can do it. ⠀
And what's in there? And there life is my friends. There is a back stage, there are operators, technical actors and all that. You can take your part in life, like your film, but you are not a director or producer, let's say you are an actor and you can negotiate with them. There are actors who change the plot by negotiating with the director.
Often people create high expectations, well, why do others have such roles first, and the director does not notice me, because I could also play like Brad Pitt or Tom Hanks, why am I worse. My friend, understand there is nothing good in evaluative thinking, take an example from the Buddhists. A hundred people work in the creation of the film, and on the screen we see 5-10 actors, and there are minor roles, 3 plans and episodic ones, and there are those whom we do not see at all, but which we cannot do without, because someone makes cool make-up, costumes and light makes. Therefore, the complete picture will not work out without you either, but the director knows about your participation in the film and remembers you. ⠀
And another moment, sometimes we watch a thriller, and think, well, when will the main character get married there and live a happy life? After all, already at the beginning of the film, you can understand what's what. Yes, genres are different, and films are different in duration, there are with or without meaning.
One thing I will tell you for sure, you can influence the plot of your film, everything can be changed until the choice is made. Even if you are tired of watching a scary movie, you can go to another movie theater for a romantic comedy.
