Abstract

Films engage us visually, aurally, viscerally, and emotionally. Incorporating science themes into films has the potential to open up new audiences to scientific ideas, pique their interests, and inspire them to engage in a broader discussion of the science itself. Here, I discuss several narrative techniques and strategies employed in film to effectively engage the audience around science themes, which may be useful tools for scientists looking to become better communicators.
