Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: One can learn another person from books and movies the person likes.

Is it possible to learn another person from the books and movies this person likes? In my opinion, sometimes this method could help you a lot, but most of the time it hardly works as you desire.

Admittedly, one person's favorite books and movies could be regarded as mirrors to reflect his/her professions, hobbies and so on, all of which are the important information about a person. For example, if a person is immersed into Shakespeare, he/she might be a researcher or lover of literature. And the person who enjoys the movies of the wonderful actor Juliette Binoche probably likes to wander into the world of arts and literature. Nevertheless, it is certainly not enough to know comprehensively about this person just from this way.

In general, the favor to books or movies only shows his/her quiet side of the character, thus the passion, energy, activeness of this guy might has been neglected. Therefore, we should try to understand a person from many other means, such as his/her favor in sports, preference of foods, willingness for volunteer service. For instance, the excitement of a football fan might be better perceived in the football field rather than his favorite books or movie, let alone one person, who likes reading history books quietly, is actually full of passion in his/ her public speech.

Moreover, the information attained from the books and movies may even be wrong. In other words, the personality can be completely contrary to what these materials have reflected. One of my friend is an excellent example, who is fascinated by violent films. But it does not means he is a relentless and hardhearted man. As a matter of fact, it is the other way around. He is considerably kindhearted and enthusiastic, participating in volunteer activities to help poor children actively.

Therefore, sometimes the books and movies one person likes could be clues to learn about this guy, but nobody can guarantee it is a right signal or totally a misleading message. From the psychological perspective, multiple personality may occurs to anybody, thus it is not strange to find different even contrary faces in just one body. The favor to books and movies is not a bad mirror, but be careful and remember that it presents only one aspect of this person.
