Some people think that it is good for a country's cultures to show imported foreign films and TV programs. Other people think that a country should develop their own films and TV programs instead. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Among all the influences brought by globalization, perhaps those on

culture

are the most insidious and frequently ignored ones. When it comes to the issue of whether nations should introduce foreign

films

and

TV

programs

to domestic families, I believe that they could be of help to local

culture

.

However

, developing the nation’s own

films

and

TV

programs

is the best for a country’s

culture

. Admittedly, importing literature and artworks from overseas could bring cultural diversity to the host country. To be more specific, watching imported movies and

TV

shows comprise an easy way of obtaining profound insights into other countries’ traditional values, which could enrich the host country’s cultural background.

However

, we should still be vigilant enough of the assimilating effect caused by the influx of exotic civilizations, when we are learning from the social norms and practices of other countries.

Besides

, we should

also

be cautious that foreign artworks may deliver propaganda or even hidden agendas, which could undermine the foundation of a country’s ideology.

Nevertheless

, developing local

films

and

TV

shows is the most pivotal for the survival and vitality of

culture

.

First

of all, regional

films

and

TV

programs

are the most effective promotion of local values in the host country. Only when people are exposed to an increasing number of domestic cultures could they develop confidence and interest in their own traditional morals and virtues and

this

is just how the essence of traditional beliefs is preserved and passed on from generation to generation. What's more, creating excellent presentations of

culture

through

films

,

TV

shows or any other kinds of art could enhance a nation’s cultural prowess, increasing the

culture

’s international status. After all, it is only through equal communication that different ideas can be exchanged between nations, and

this

above all requires an adequate amount of literature and artworks presented to the world. In conclusion, it is meaningful that we could appreciate foreign

films

and

TV

programs

and obtain what’s desirable for our own cultural development.

However

, developing our own presentation of

culture

is the most vital factor in defining who we are and strengthening our cultural influences across the globe.
