{"title": "Examples of films \"Corrupting the audience\"", "timestamp": 1761331330.1739213, "description": "[Quentin Tarantino]() stated that a quality of a film is measured in how well it corrupts the audience, showing as an example the 1971 [Don Siegel]() film *Dirty Harry* where the main character ( a cop ) is trying to catch a psychopathic serial killer, which leads him into breaking the rules, because of the nature of the threat. He basically throws the civil liberties out of the window to catch the motherfucker, because otherwise the motherfucker is uncatchable. Which makes the audience for a moment, share that idea, and have *a reason* all of a sudden to not give basic human rights to bad people. Some people called this movie a \"Nazi Propaganda Piece\" but it is undeniable, the movie succeeded at corrupting its audience and therefore it is a picture of a great quality.
