The difference being that in films, unlike in life, good does always win over evil in the end.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Evil is done without effort, naturally, it is the working of fate; good is always the product of an art.
It's better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.
I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil.
More than anything, there are more images in evil. Evil is based far more on the visual, whereas good has no good images at all.
Good can exist without evil, whereas evil cannot exist without good.
It is not true that good can only follow from good and evil only from evil, but that often the opposite is true.
War is good when good survives and evil is crushed. If you don't crush evil then evil will get you.
Any film is about heroism: the triumph of good over evil. If you look back at my films, you will see that as a recurring theme.
Good is positive. Evil is merely privative, not absolute: it is like cold, which is the privation of heat. All evil is so much death or nonentity. Benevolence is absolute and real. So much benevolence as a man hath, so much life hath he.
I think goodness is very powerful, but often evil is made more attractive in films. It's a challenge to make goodness appealing.
