I.e. entertainment is something which is essentially done to us. It makes us laugh, it makes us cry - but we sit back and let it happen. Art however forces us to respond – to appreciate it properly we have to "bring something" to the party and interact with the film/painting/play/etc. etc. We may have to work harder but because art requires an active response from its audience it engages with us at a much deeper level and has the ability to affect us in a far more profound way. At its best therefore it lifts us beyond ourselves and/or changes us permanently for the good. I think Jett you’ve highlighted one of the main differences between entertainment and art.

It made me want to see EWS again, having only seen it the once quite a while ago.<br><br>More 'oldies' shows please, or shows that involve both old and new. From a purely selfish point of view I don't always get to catch things when they're first released. Also, I'd don't think you can really assess a lot of films straight after seeing them (apart from the likes of Love Guru of course!) EWS is a good example of this. It's just more interesting to hear you discuss films that I know well, rather than ones I've not seen yet. Finally got round to listening to the show – thanks guys it was a good one.
