The emotional experiences we encounter in films can serve as a mechanism for catharsis, allowing us to process our own feelings in a safe environment. When a character experiences tragedy or joy that resonates with us, our empathetic responses can lead to tears. This emotional release, celebrated as a sign of being in touch with one’s feelings, may create a false sense of security about our well-being. The study's implication—that those who cry easily might be more prone to an earlier death—challenges conventional wisdom by suggesting that vulnerability could carry significant health risks.
