While I was reading “Integration of the Arts”, one part of this writing called my attention: “In 1961 "The Futurist Cinema," F.T. Marinetti and his revolutionary cohorts declared film to be the supreme art because it embraced all other art forms through the use of (then) new media technology. Only cinema, they claimed, had a "totalizing" effect on human consciousness.”
I agree with what Marinetti said: “…declared the film to be supreme art…” Film does unify all forms of art, but besides that, what I best like about films is that they are a mean of communication and there is a more direct interaction with the audience.
Through a film you are able to do many things, such as transmit messages, show real life stories that help people indentify with one of the characters of the film, show different points of views, etc.
Through art, you can express yourself, but on my opinion (at least for me), it is more difficult to transmit the message I want my audience to get when it comes to drawing or painting, but it is “easier” when it comes to films.
