Why does a film make me cry when real life feels out of reach? Alexithymia makes emotions a puzzle, but directors like Lynch and Sorrentino offer a sensory bypass. A personal look at cinema as a translator.

This is so interesting, so thank you for writing this.
It does resonate with me, because this has been the reallity for me too. Well, at least the part of 'only cry to movies' and not reality. (At least until my latest ~5 years, something has changed and I do cry without movies but don't know why).
But, I never tried to figure out why and therefore I am now really curious to see what and when a movie makes me cry.
