Watching movies and reading novels were two different forms of entertainment with different characteristics and charms. Movies were a form of visual art that conveyed stories and emotions through images and sounds. Movies could quickly understand the background, plot, and characters of the story in a short time. They could also enhance the viewing experience through visual effects and music. However, movies were usually shorter than novels, making it difficult to explore the content and theme of the story in depth. A novel was an art form that conveyed stories and emotions through the author's conception, description, and imagination. Reading a novel for a longer period of time would allow the reader to understand the background, plot, and characters of the story more deeply. They could also follow the author's train of thought to explore the meaning and theme of the story. The novel could also enhance the reader's emotional experience through details, descriptions, and emotional expressions. Therefore, watching movies and reading novels had their own advantages and disadvantages. They could choose different forms of entertainment according to their own preferences and needs.
