Question

Something for Everyone
Many moviegoers are likely to enjoy comedies that make them laugh. However, some people also enjoy dramas. A drama may scare people or make them cry, even if they can’t say why.
Are most of the comedies you’ve seen set in the present? Actually they can be set in any time period, including the past, present, and even the future! The star of a comedy can be male or female, but the most noticeable feature of a comedy is that it makes the audience laugh or smile. Usually the ending of a comedy is a happy one and the audience leaves feeling upbeat and entertained.
A drama may also be set in any time period. Have you ever walked out of a movie theatre in tears? If you have, then the drama was probably successful because the idea behind a drama is to get the audience to feel the characters’ emotion. Filmmakers who make dramas want you to invest your emotions in the characters. Like a comedy, the stars may be male or female in a drama. However, the characters have a problem to solve and the way the characters solve the problem is what keeps the audience interested.
