Assignment 7: Catherine Curtright

On this day, 124 years ago, the tradition of the motion picture began, thanks to the efforts of Thomas Edison.  This has had an unbelievable impact on my life. I watch movies for entertainment, for a chance to socialize with friends, for family time, and even for educational purposes. There are dramas, actions flicks, romances, comedies, films about science and history.  I love movies! I love to cuddle up in a blanket and chow on popcorn. I love to get sucked into a plot and scream at the tv when something doesn't go the way I wanted for my favorite character. Imagine if we didn't have movies. What would we do for an awkward first date?
