According to the first chapter of Barsam and Monahan's Looking at Movies, movies have grown into a sophisticated form of creative representation and communication: they are both a massively influential, wildly successful worldwide enterprise and a modern art form, the most popular art form today. It establishes that the movies we see impact our perceptions of the world around us and that a closer examination reveals a lot about the artist and society, as well as aiding our understanding of the present world. Every movie is a complex synthesis, which is a collection of many separate, interconnected elements that come together to form a unified whole.
