Pride and Prejudice (2005)

Pride and Prejudice

(2005)

Hello again!

 

Today’s review is about Pride and Prejudice, a film based on the novel by Jane Austen.

I think it is one of my favorite romantic movies; this movie is special because of the story and the landscapes.

The story is about 5 sisters who are still living with their parents in a big farm house.

In those times if you were a woman it was necessary to find a husband to support you, women had no rights.

In the movie a powerful and rich man (Charles Bingley) arrives in the village where the girls live. The parents take all the girls to a party to meet new people and future husbands. Social events were important and rich people liked to have big parties.

One of the sisters (Jane Bennett) falls in love with Bingley, and then a lot of things happen after that. I can say my favorite character is Lizzy a young girl, very independent and with her own way of thinking. She meets Bingley’s friend Darcy.

Darcy is an arrogant person.  The first time he meets Lizzy he is very impolite and not really friendly. But then with time, they meet more and more, and then, love happens. Both are in love. There is a problem, they come from different social classes, he is rich and she is a farmer’s daughter.

I can’t give you any spoilers but I’m sure you are going to love everything about this movie, especially the castles, I think they are stunning. The ending is amazing.

 They used old English in the film and if you are learning English this movie can be a bit of a challenge, but it doesn’t matter, later you will understand it better.

I hope you like my review as always it is my personal opinion!

See you next time!

Billy Elliot (2009)

Billy Elliot!

(2009) 

 

Hello and welcome to my second review in English.Today’s review is about Billy Elliot. The first time I watched this movie was when I was 12 years old.

I enjoyed the movie. It is about a guy who wants to be dancer and not a professional boxer.

Going against the wishes of his father who believes that men shouldn’t dance. He tries his best to hide his passion

 for dancing. The dancing teacher supports him in the difficult times.

  In those times the thinking was really closed, and in the film we can see the problems and the acceptation of the Elliot   
  family about his dancing. The film also shows the social problems of the times.

This movie gives us a great message, always fight for something you love and want .Billy Elliot is about that, fight for your dreams.

 

    This movie has a lot of nice moments and the music isgood. It is worth watching.

 I hope you enjoy reading this review,

See you next time!

 

My neighbor Totoro! (1988)

My Neighbor Totoro Review

Hello everyone, this is my first review in English, I saw the movie a couple of days ago and it was an amazing film. The film is about the father of two girls, aged 8 and 12, moving into a haunted house. You find a lot of interesting things about the ambient of the movie like the scenery and the landscapes around the house. This movie shows the Japanese rice farmers. The family is discovering new feelings in the house like having the courage to confront the scary feelings you experience in a new house and the challenge to overcome them. The mother is in the hospital, where she is recuperating. The girls visit her sometimes with the father, that makes the movie more amazing because it shows you the value of the family. Also the girls have good manners with old people and people in general, that shows that the culture in Japan is about respecting nature, the gods and each other. Something important is the support and warm welcome the farming community gives the new family. I think that is amazing. 

Later the girls meet Totoro, I think he is a spirit of the forest because not everybody can see him. Only the girls can see him. The girls have adventures and experiences with him. What makes this movie so nice is the meaning behind everything. 

I think this is one of the best animated movies of all time. It gives you a nice feeling watching it, you enjoy every moment. I’m sure that you going to love this wonderful movie like I do.

About the director Hayao Miyazaki is the genius who make this movie so amazing .This movie was hand drawn, that means the computer had no place here ,just  the animation and that’s it. The biography you can find in the next link if you are interested so click!
