Self - Filmmaker: It's hard to keep the audiences' attention when you show them everything. And the problem with most films is, is it, you hear it, you see exactly what it is, if you're talking, there's a big closeup of your face, so we know that you're talking and we hear it. So, I think the mandated film is to hide that. To make the audience, "Oh, what's going on? I don't quite see that. And, oh! You think that's..." So that - the goose bumps can come out. Otherwise, you know, you're sittin' there drinkin' coca-cola and eatin' a hot dog
