This Idealizing you're talking about is definitely part of my definition of sugar coating. Again, Sugar coating were Patrick's words. Idealization and romanticizing is more accurate.The question between Patrick and I is that not all films have these romantic notions and devices designed to put the audience off balance and purposefully direct them to a certain place and way of seeing. I say they do and was pointing that out to him. You and I agree.
Your comment that the difference is in the subtlty in how these romantic notions are put across to the audience as being the key to what makes a film good or band is one that I should have added at the end of my original post.
