SharedThought

Roger Ebert comes through with a money quote:

Movies are an empathy machine, drawing us into other lives, allowing us to identify with those of other races, genders, occupations, religions, income levels or times in history. Good films enlarge us, and are a civilizing medium. Bad films narrow us. No films at all impoverishes us.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun Times, September 10, 2008.
