Independent films VS commercial films

Hi! Today I will write about independent cinema and I will express my opinion about it. I will also suggest some independent films which I have seen.

The independent films are these which are made with a very little budget. The technical team is smaller than in the big productions and also, the shooting is larger. The directors and the screenwriters give more importance to the scripts than to the other productions, which give more importance to the technical aspects and special effects in order to impress the audience. Another difference between commercial and independent cinema is that the first one is made according to the spectator’s preferences and it is addressed to all the public. The second one is for a specific and more realistic sector of the population.

Here you can see independent films online https://www.filmin.es/ 

Personally I prefer independent films. For me, they are more realistic and have more quality in relation to the script. I don’t care so much about the special effects or the technical aspects, it is not important for me. Moreover, the independent films are more close to the spectator. They tend to be more original and creative and they are made to impress the spectator with the storyline. The audience of independent films is, sometimes, more critical and tough and they value the interpretation, the dialogues and the complicity between the actors and actresses.


In particular I like French independent cinema. I have seen some of these films and I really like them: for example Dans la Maison. This film explains a story about a young boy who, pushed by his professor, writes a kind of serialized novel about the family of one of his schoolmates. Finally, the reality confuses with the fiction. Another French independent film is Tomboy, the story of a girl who pretends to be a boy and taking the advantage of her short haircut and her outward appearance of a boy.

Top 6 of the most popular films

Hello! In this publication you will read my interpretation of two results of the last survey: http://cinemaisculture.blogspot.com.es/2014/02/what-do-people-think-about-cinema.html

You will also found the top 6 most popular comedy, science fiction, dramatic, fantastic, historic and romantic film. Let's see!



According to the survey 65% of 20 tend to watch the films through the T.V and the other 35% tend to watch the films through the internet. Not one usally watch the films in the cinema.











This means that people who watch the films through the T.V, prefer watching a film than other T.V programs. This people aren't so much worried about which film they are going to watch because they adapt easily to the schedule. But the poeople who watch the films through the internet, they are more tough about the film they are going to watch. They choose a particular film, they can see it whenever they want and they don't depend on the scheldule. 


I think that the people who watch the films on the T.V are people who haven't got so much time to search a specific film on the network like it do the people who watch the films through the internet. This kind of people have more free time to search for the film they want to watch.




According to the survey, 10 of 20 people pay more attention to the landscapes and locations when they are watching a film. Only 7 of 20 people pay attention to the interpretation. It indicates that the people are more interested in what they are seeing and in the visual sight than the argument of the film. 

I though that it was different, I believed that the people paid more attention to the conversations or what the characters do. Maybe they prefer films with a spectacular landscapes and special effects without a good argument, they aren't so much critical and they reluctantly accept most of the films.




Finally, I think that it would be interesting to group the most six popular films depending on the genre. 

The most popular science fiction for excellence is: AVATAR



The most popular comedy is: INTOCABLE



The most popular dramatic film is: LO IMPOSIBLE




In the most popular romantic film there is a tie: TITANIC / 3 METROS SOBRE EL CIELO
 


The most popular historic film is: THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PYJAMAS




And... the most popular fantastic film: HARRY POTTER
