(500) Days of Summer

DID YOU KNOW?
Just when you thought that movies are purely for entertainment, some medical practitioners think otherwise. Did you know that there is even such thing as 'cinema therapy'? Yes, it is a practice that uses the imagery, plot, or music in films for insight, inspiration, or even emotional release. And while such activity is prescribed by licensed therapists, it is often self-administered. This means you can choose to watch any type of movie that you like, wherever and whenever convenient for you. So the next time you feel you're in a bad mood, remember that it's not just the best comedy movies you should be looking for. It's always best to find that kind of film that would turn your outlook from gloomy to sunny!
