Film as Art

Many films have caught my eyes for various reasons. Some films such
as Titanic inspired me with its touching and awesome story line. Also films likes Matrix catch my eye with amazing special effects and camera usage. But when it comes to films, one in particular is a step above the rest. Ray, staring Jamie Foxx, is a movie with a special and unique blend of all the essentials that go into making a good movie. One of the main reasons I consider this movie a work of art is the level of acting that went into making this movie. Jamie Foxx especially had to devote a great deal of effort research and extra time to imitating one of the greatest artist of all time Ray Charles. Foxx went to great lengths such as actually gluing his eyes closed during the filming of the movie to accurately portraying his character to the best of his abilities. Intangibles such as this make this a work of art.
