W: What did you think of the movie? Did you like it?
M: Not really, it was a little too artsy for me. It seemed like the director was trying so hard to impress us with storage close-ups and avant-garde dialogues that he forgot to include a story. I thought it was really boring.
W: I thought the movie was really thought-provoking. I love it when a movie makes you think. It’s a nice change from the superficial dialogue and two-dimensional characters you usually see in films these days.
M: I don’t really care for alternative films. They are so dark and depressing. The characters are always so intense. Why does a movie have to be sad to be deep?
W: Yeah, I know what you mean, but mainstream cinema is nothing but gun fights and exploding cars. I get so sick of movies like that. I prefer movies with substance.
M: But sometimes you don’t want to think; sometimes you just want a light movie. Like that comedy movie with Billy Crystal--that was so hilarious. I laughed so hard that I cried.
W: Movies have to be more than entertaining to me.
M: Did you see that new mystery movie that came out last month? That was so suspenseful. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.
W: I loved that movie. The plot was great, and the acting was incredible. I wouldn’t be surprised if it were nominated for an Academy Award.
M: Well, at least we agree on something. I guess we’ll have to stick to mysteries in the future.
