RE: 'The Hunt': Much Ado over comedy politics

Posted by Mr_Steady on March 16, 2020 at 11:58:55:
I would point out one thing.

Movies are about visuals and images. The audio and dialog are really secondary. To back this statement up I would remind the reader that there were silent movies long before there were talkies.

So with movies like "The Hunt" or TV series like "The Hunters" if you really want to figure out what is the message they are trying to get across, then watch them with the sound turned off. The imagery is the real message. The audio is there to throw you off track, make you laugh, but people sub-consciously pick up on the visual meaning. Therein lies the danger. Taxi Driver anyone?
