I started to (always) prefer watching films alone, whether it is at home or at the cinema. So I was wondering about the reason for this and came to a conclusion. I'm very interested in film analysis and like to pay attention to all kinds of details, making notes in my brain. I watch my favorite films over and over, thinking about different ways on how they can be interpreted. This keeps the films fresh and alive. But when I watch a film with someone I know, this could be a friend or family member, I always worry about what they think of the movie. I then tend to focus on the plot and what scenes will come up next (if I have already seen the movie), I wonder what they will think about this or that upcoming scene, I think about how entertaining the film is for someone else, and when there's a part that's slow-paced or awkward, I tend to feel uncomfortable. As a result, the experience becomes less enjoyable and more superficial, since more plot-focused. Watching a film is something personal and should be treated the same way as reading a book which most people also prefer to do alone. Also, at the end of the movie, there's always this awkward silence, I don't know why, which makes me feel forced to ask how the other person liked the movie. Has anyone else had the same thoughts before? I have no problem watching a film in the cinema by myself with strangers, since I don't talk to them and won't see them again.
