Some basic words on The Suspension of Disbelief.
What is it exactly? Try this: the ability of a story to encourage its audience to suspend their disbelief and go along with events as they unfold.
Stories don't have to be real, but they must appear to be real, at least for the duration of the movie. Spiderman can fly and make webs through his fingers. In Back To The Future Michael J. Fox's character really DID travel back in time in a turbochareged DeLorean.
Simply: give your audience the appearance of truth and they'll follow you anywhere. |
