That’s kinda the intent behind tragic movies and stories? Experiencing something safely.

I suppose so. I’ve never been very big on them tbh, but maybe that’s because I haven’t found the good ones. Some of the Saw movies were pretty good though.
What I find really compelling, though, is knowing it’s the real world I’m seeing. Maybe it comes from growing up so sheltered. Like maybe subconsciously I want to get a feel of how cruel the world can be and what I may have to deal with if I’m unlucky.
