Much time has been wasted watching absurdity camouflaged in the form of a movie. Here, one needs to focus that one has not been watching a movie, in most cases, but absurdity.
Today, we live in an age of science and technology that teems with a number of miseries and crises unaddressed. Movies can be made a wonderful source of educating the youth. Movies should not merely be an alloy of entertainment but a powerful tool to motivate the people, and henceforth, guide them. Thus, the citizens would not only get educated but also help the government lubricate the wheels of prosperity.
For a long time, the writers have been doing a spoiling business. Today the matter have become worse with more and more unwisely producers embarking on the business of making movies based on futility. To them, movie is not a motivating device but only a source of making easy money. Still the condition of most nations across the globe remains crude where there are no restrictions to impede the producers of absurd movies. Nations have a film board of film certification whose duty is check elements like obscenity, foul language or those which pose a threat to the national security or sentiment. Sometimes, the body checks whether any malice creeps in, which might throw slush upon the cultural sensibilities.
Unfortunately, we come across many elements in movies which, at least, aggravates the existing social evils. Movies have played a vital and significant role in accelerating the growth of social evils. The degrading moral values will always be indebted to the movies that have been a breeder of malicious content.
It is truly said that it is easy to destroy rather than to build. Most movies have been a source of misleading the tender youth who are vulnerable to evil ideas. Most modern movies have succeeded in converting the innocent public into perpetrators of violence.
The role and responsibility of the inspecting authorities of the film board ought to be enlarged so that rotten ideas are checked. The officials concerned, should meticulously go through the contents of the movie. Only then, the movie should get the approval to be screened at the theatres. The officials should not get satisfied with the movie that is deprived of any impermissible content alone. In fact, the measuring tool for examining the contents of the movie should not be conventional. It should be a creative and intellectual device that should probe the depth of the content, to foresee whether the consequences of watching the movie would be a misleading one, with cultural point of view. It should not be approved even if it is deprived of any malice. It should play a key role in enhancing the national prosperity. Romance alone should not form the crux of the movie. A movie should assimilate the re-motivating device so that it helps in creating a better world to live in.
