Abstract

Movies makes us cry, laugh, or be afraid of something does not really exist. Psychology studies why this happens to the audience but only researching the audiovisual techniques and the movies we can know how it is done and how it works. An analysis of movies in different countries indicates how cinema constructs emotions for the audience. Time, image, and sound are the three most important elements implicated but the possibilities are extraordinary.
