Lately I have been doing a lot of thinking about Real life characters and fictional characters and why you like them in real or fictional world.
These characters could be a pet, a friend, a partner, some celebrity who's a role model, some actor, painter, singer..a
family member..or fictional characters from movies or serials or books , for that matter cartoon characters also!
What makes us like a certain character playing in front of our eyes..in a 'real' movie.. or in a movie called 'real life'.
And how do we know whether a fictional character is 'Real' or a 'Real character' is fictional.
Or there is really no difference?
Is there a pattern that we follow when we like these characters?
Do we like the same characteristics in all those whom we admire and adore? Is this got to do deep down with our own characteristics?
Do we tend to like fictional characters similar to the characters in real life?
What about characters we meet in real life. Are they real in 'Real' sense.
How different they are from fictional characters?
What if they are portraying something they are not. At least with fictional characters you know its the way they are displayed or outlined.
There's nothing hidden inside them of their own.
All fictional characters are two dimensional but to real characters , there exists a third dimension that is under their own control. They can show it or hide it from the world.
Does that mean real characters are actually fictional characters with a 'third dimension' ?
