Entertaiment is an art form that is largely influenced by narrative traditions, moralism and the cultural values of a society. It has evolved into a large industry that provides livelihoods to many. Its commercial nature ensures that its forms are constantly re-mixed and can cross different media. Entertainment is a means of escape and recreation, which removes people from their mundane realities for a brief period. However, it also has the potential to elicit extreme emotions and evoke strong social responses such as satire and cruelty. It is not uncommon to find the same themes and images used in entertainment as those found in novellas.
