What reading level is How to Watch a Movie book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Once upon a time, giving a camera to a kid marked a coming of age, so young people thought of taking a photograph as a personal advance. Today we all have phones that snap anything and everything. So selfies are as casual and disposable as chatter. It is the new talk. But suppose you want to take a picture of your girlfriend. Why? Well, there is still a way in which fond photos hope to establish a relationship as a way of saying, Look you’re beautiful—and I have seen it.
Possessing a photograph
...is not owning a person, but it is a step in that direction, and if you start to study the way people display portraits in their home or in their life you may learn more about the family dynamic than is comfortable. Photographs are helpless testaments, but they can be possessions. The art critic John Berger was among the first to notice that a photograph evoked both presence and absence: it reminds you of a person, but it underlines the way the person is not there now. Perhaps sometimes it’s easier to love a photograph than a person.
