2 并列谓语动词的不同语法形式

下面的句子出自新教材高中英语译林版必修21单元(p1)

A film is—or should be—more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. 电影是——或者应该是——更像音乐而非小说。它应该是情绪和情感的逐步发展过程。——Stanley Kubrick(斯坦利·库布利克)

我觉得这里的is or should be用得很有意思,我记得曾见过 is and will be 之类的说法,但找不到例句了,请专家老师就此举几例看看,并归纳一下类似句式。谢谢。
