Watching a movie with your child is a good way to distract yourself from pressing problems and spend time with benefit. It has been proven that family movie watching at home promotes family cohesion, gives children a feeling of comfort and unity with their parents, and, in turn, helps parents relax and get a charge of positive emotions.
Soviet-era films
If you decide to watch a movie with your child, you should definitely choose the one that is interestingly filmed for children. This should be a film that would be interesting for an adult as well. Good old films-fairy tales of Soviet times are perfect for family viewing. Perhaps the plot of these tales is quite simple, but the play of the actors of the Soviet era is beyond praise. If we recall the inimitable Faina Ranevskaya in the Soviet film “Cinderella” or Georgy Millyar in the film by Alexander Rowe “Frost”, who portrayed Baba Yaga so brilliantly, one might conclude that perhaps none of the modern actors could play so mentally.
Great for family watching films about animals. These paintings not only instill in children a love for our smaller brothers, but also foster a sense of responsibility, compassion and duty. Of the good Soviet films, the feature film "White Bim, Black Ear" directed by Stanislav Rostotsky is very informative in this respect - this is a picture that makes you think about a lot.
Unlike most children's films, this is a story with a sad ending. Watching the film will be equally useful for both adults and children.
Foreign films - fairy tales
From foreign films recommended for family viewing "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Spy Kids" and "Avatar". These films are light, funny, they are entertaining enough not only to please the child. If your family members prefer modern bright cinema, the film "Oz, the great and terrible" is best suited for this role. The story of the main characters of this picture is mesmerizing, in the finale, patient viewers will have a happy ending.
The happy ending of the film is very important. It will be better if your child does not think that everything in life is too complicated. At the end of the picture, let him rejoice for his characters. It helps children become kinder.
Light comedies about the adventures of Asterix and Obelix with Gerard Depardieu in the title role are great for family viewing. In a word, whatever the movie, old or new, it’s good if after watching it left a mark on your soul and made you think about something. It's great if your children have become kinder, more generous and more humane. Meanwhile, the adults, having had a good rest in front of the TV screen, finally felt lightness and carelessness, as they once did in childhood.
