I certainly side with industry two but don't necessarily agree with all of its points. I am university educated but still love to chill out and watch a film for pure entertainment. Isn't that just human nature? I don't think we need to stereotype the working class as being the only audience indulging in entertaining film. After all film always challenges us even when it is entertaining.
