How do people select films?

This is what my friend Alice told me about what type of films she likes to see and why!! :)

My friend Alice usally looks to see what Acotrs are in a film and even if she doesn't like the sound of the story she still must see it for the name of the actors in it. Her favorite films to see are films that were writtten as a book and then turned into a flim. Examples are Twilight, Ink Heart and Lord of the Rings. But she says with other films she see the films and then reads the book.

Alice told me she only went to see Avatar after seeing so many good reviews and how it was Number 1 at the box office. She enjoyed Avatar and is think about buying the DVD.
