The World of special effects versus simple message

Strolling up and down Beverly Hills one can hardly ever see anyone on a street. It is quite extraordinary to observe, let's say, Antonio Banderas walking in his red underpants and shouting cheerfully "Hi, girls!" Quite a fun! But, the only thing you could see there is even rows of houses behind high and shut fences, and only lonesome cars driving to and fro. Nothing interesting, is it?

Many people think of a career of a movie star as of something quite easy and pleasant. Is it really so? Probably we, ordinary people, will never learn what is there - inside out. Maybe that is for better. It seems as if movie stars live an interesting and easy life. It might be interesting but not that easy. All this process of film making for more than ten, even twelve hours a day are quite tiresome. It is hard to get prepared for the screen, there is huge work preparation before it comes to actual shooting. Every movie star should practice a lot, have good memory, keep fit, and always be concerned about his or her image. It is not luck, it is hard work: an actor or an actress in some scenes should show themselves laughing and glad on a screen and in publicity when in real life they might not feel any joy. Resting for few hours per day and endless preparations for the forthcoming shooting after shooting will seem interesting for the first few days, but gradually it turns to be a total nightmare.

And not all the time they gain glory and fame they are craving for, most of Hollywood 'luminaries' are forgotten after few years and never remembered again. Some quite talented celebrities, film makers, and a huge number of stage handy men - who sometimes may even play a key role in film production on a studio - experience certain rises and falls if they are not understood by an audience in present but only in few years later when it comes true realization and when these stars went faded and appeared no more.

And it might be not the matter of a usual audience; it might be studio companies, people, or envy and rivalry which sweep the names of these either insignificant or most talented movie figures out from the history of Film Industry. Who knows, maybe that is really for good that these names are not messed with the Dream Factory? We shall never know. However, these so-called 'banned' or 'category B' and 'Graindhouse' films of the past are very popular with the youth of the present. These movies somehow effects on the youth bringing them up in a certain way - not the way they were brought up unwillingly - but give them certain way of thinking, and this fact should be also taken into consideration.

Let most talented and keen do their jobs in the Film Industry while we would only thank them for their work by estimating high their arts; and, in return, find ourselves in those fields which approaches us best exploring our arts and crafts.
