Whatever Is Being Investigated, Created Or Produced Now, In Movies Or Tv, Needs To Consider The Context In Which It Is Being Distributed. It's Not A Vacuum. There Are Certain Universal Themes Of Love, Conflict, Loyalty Or Family That Are Everlasting And That Need To Be Presented In A Way That Makes It Feel Relevant, Even If It's A Period Piece. You Need To Consider What Context That Film, That Story And Those Characters Are Being Seen In.

The Noise You Hear After People See Something You Do - Whether It's A Tv Show Or A Movie - That Always Makes You See That Thing Slightly Differently. Without Question. The Ability Of A Television Series To Make Adjustments Is Something You've Got To Take Advantage Of. And Test-screening A Movie Can Be Helpful Too. But The Part That Can Be Dangerous Is When You Take Those Notes As Gospel, Instead Of Taking Them With A Grain Of Salt. The Key Is To Use The Response As One Of The Tools In Your Box, As Opposed To Using It To Determine What You Do.
