Weeping During Media

Ohel: Is weeping during motion pictures a communal experience, or is that a personal experience? Are we actually trying to communicate something to other people viewing the film? Ohel: i mean, it wouldn't have to be intentional on your part. I mean, weeping is often involuntary. It's usually involuntary. So weeping at a movie could very well be not something you're trying to do because you are tentionally communicating with, say, the movie, or with other people you're watching the movie with. But instead, it's a standard kind of response to a ympathetic connection with drama you are seeing unfold.
