Velocity: Speed and acceleration create excitement and urgency. Fast cutting, quick camera movement, and high speed chases pull the audience in. Marinetti celebrates speed, machines, danger, aggression, and modern technology. His idea of the “beauty of speed” connects perfectly to action cinema because cars, planes, chases, and fast movement become exciting on their own.
Connection: Velocity → Machine → Action
Both Marinetti and Collins show how speed and intense movement can become pleasurable experiences themselves.
Point Break: Velocity: Surfing, skydiving, and chase scenes make speed itself part of the fun watching the film.
