Does the movie The Lion King have some psychological affect towards the audience?

I do not understand why but everytime i watch The Lion King i start crying and get emotional, I wonder if it has something to do with my father not being a stable role model in my life. Like Simba lost his dad. Can this be true??

Answer #1

Yes, im sure that has alot to do with it. Its natural to get upset and have a response when you watch a relationship such as simba and his fathers when you yourself never had that type of father/child relationship. That type of reaction can come from any movie/tvshow/book that explores a fathers love for their child.

Answer #2

Well yes it brings out feelings depending on how emotional you are. Sometime people can simply connect with it, connect with the story and that brings out feelings as well.

Answer #3

I know what you mean, I love The Lion King (in fact I was actually watching it, and drawing Scar yesterday lol). I think any movie could have psychological effect towards the audience, it just depends on what a certain person is reading into the movie. The Lion King certainly is a very powerful movie. Even though it’s a cartoon, I think it’s a fantastic movie, probably there in my top 3 movies lol.

Answer #4

also the fox and the hound makes me cry so much!!

Answer #5

Yes it does, if you are emotional enough. Which is why I can’t watch Disney movies like that or Bambi, because I’d cry.

Answer #6

me too!!

Answer #7

Maybe, I LOVE this movie. I mean now that I’m older.. I think.. “wow.. he killed his own brother, over power?” … jealousy does cause people do things like that in today’s society, but if you mean emotionally? I definitely cried when Mufasah died :(

Answer #8

Exactly!

Im a sucker when it comes to these types of movies. I need tissues!
