When sitting down to watch a film, imagine you’re somebody who thinks the film is Ocean’s Eleven. You’re wondering when George Clooney is going to turn up and start robbing casinos, and you're confused about how the film is progressing so far. Perhaps cast about for the TV guide, a perplexed look on your face. Maybe check your watch. Perhaps think things like “God, they’re building up to Brad Pitt’s first scene in really weird way” or “Surely any moment A Little Less Conversation is gonna kick in and the wise-cracks will start”? Recommended films to do this with: Schindler’s List, Gandhi and Saw.
