I think that movies or television would have a great impact on people’s life and behaviors. By watching movies, people can empathize with the characters, and thus, they can understand how other people think and feel, which, in turn, will expand the understanding of the world. And, we can\'t know everything. Our point of view is limited by our own experience and we can’t tell that the reality we recognize is the true reality. However, using movies and television programs, we can have second-hand experiences which will help us enlarge our scope of understanding and through these experiences, we can look back on our own life and if needed, we can modify our thoughts or behaviors.

>> Movies and television programs have a great influence on people\'s behaviors and lives because people empathize with the characters wherein they place themselves in the shoes of the different characters they see on TV or on film. In doing this, people are able to broaden their horizons since watching films and TV shows lends second-hand experiences and allows people to understand situations that might be impossible in their own lives.

People\'s own understanding is limited or is dependent on their own circumstances and experiences and if people want to expand their understanding, they watch movies and TV shows and gain information and knowledge which is perceived to be true. This will, in turn, modify thoughts and behaviors.
