Two reasons that people are interested in looking at the connections between films, films and audience

Emotional response from the audience. Movies pulling at people heart string tend to get more of a reaction from people.
Any other type of reaction. People being scared, lonely, etc.
Also you tend to want to the characters better so they create character arcs.
I honestly have no idea if this answers you question;)

Gouges, because, like there named, they gage the amount of space an object has to move around.hope this : )
