Imagine going to a movie and having a completely plain experience with zero impact from the stills or the character, although it’s still going to be a movie but the experience would not be as electrifying as it would have been otherwise.
We look at characters and admire their eccentricities. As human beings’ basic instinct is to have an insight into other people’s lives and movies enhance that experience for us in some way or the other.
Characters take us inside the movie, create empathy, weave disgust, create fear, make us confused, amuse us, make us happy and finally make us marvel at the medium. So, basically they stir-up every possible emotion within a matter of a few minutes.
Now think about the various characters that you have watched on screen, and we can bet, there are only a few that you can never forget because some characters do leave such an impact over you that it is impossible to forget them.
