My favourite film is Pretty Woman directed by Garry Marshall.Edward is a rich businessman who travels to L.A.on a business trip and decides to hire a prostitute named Vivian.Their lives are worlds apart but Vivian(Julia Roberts)and Edward(Richard Gere)finally fall in love.This is a romantic comedy that I watch everytime they rerun it on TV.Its soundtrack is excellent,specially "It must have been love"by Roxette.
American History X
American History X was directed by Tony Kaye. It stars Edward Norton as Derek Vinyad, and Edward Furlong as Danny Vinyad.
It is about a boy called Derek Vinyad who belongs a Nazi band. He affiliates to the band when his father dies.

It´s a comedy about a young federal agent to the FBI(Henry) who is asigned to following an art thief(Tommy) who is internationally wanted.The problems start when Henry discover that Tommy is his new mum´s boyfriend.I enjoy a lot watching how Henry has to held his mum´s madness. I recomed because the end end is very intrigeting.
TITANIC
One of my favorites films is "Titanic" directed by James Cameron. It is a Romantic drama. The mains chatacters are Leonardo DiCaprio as Jack and Kate Winslet as Rose. The film is the real history about sinking of the famous ship in 1912. The love story between two younger people with diffents social lives.
I´ve seen this film several times and I love the story, the special effects, the soundtrack and the images of the real ship that the film show you.
"Vita é bella" directed by Roberto Benigni it is a brilliant film.
I can see in this film the special human feelings and the beautiful relationship of a father and his son, and how he kept from his son the horrors of concentration camp.
The film is set about 1940 in Italy. Guido ( Roberto Benigni) was Jew and he got married with Dora, who wasn't Jew and they had a son.
The war continued when a day Germans arrested Guido and his son and they transfered them to a concentration camp. He tried to protect his son from the horrible truth and he told him that they were on holiday and he turned the concentration camp into a big game and that the fisrt person to get 1000 points won a real tank. I recommend this film because It's brilliant film.
JUNO
This film was directed by Jason Reitman. Juno (Ellen Page) is sixteen years old and she has an especial relationship with her best friend, called Bleeker (Michael Cera).They are going to be parents and Juno has a big problem and she is alone. She decide to choose the perfect parents for her baby.
It´s a really nice film!
Adelaida Abreu.
"Life is Beautiful" is a title of an Italian film whose director and star actor is Roberto Benigni, is a tender, comic and sad movie. The plot tells about the life in the Nazi concentration camp, and how a Jew father tries to convince his son in his four or five years old, that the horrors they are living in to the Nazi camp are a game.
In the movie the father tries to keep the innocence of his son.
The film has a wonderful music, and it won many Academy Awards in 1998, such as Best Picture, Directing, Best Music, Best Actor, etc.
In my opinion it is the best film that I had seen about Jewish problem.
Last weekend I saw the film called "Nothing Hill". This romantic fil, 1999, was directed by Roger Michell.
The argument of this film is: William, the owner of a bookshop falls in love with the most fil star when she entering in his bookshop. Thus begins an affair wih many conflicts but in the end will be solved favourably.
The film isn't my favorite movie because I haven't, but I like this film!.

To meet a strange Gornicke family to meet a tribe of camping who had had excess kindness, the way that Bob went to an important meeting exc.
However,the ending is happy ending. With the end of the journey they knew the real mean of family...
Even though,when this film first came out, most of movie critics have had criticism, many people give it a high score.
I would recommend this film because it very interesting.On a scale of 1-10 i would give it 6.5
Don't think about a deep meaning, an artistic sense, an image conscious. Just watching, listening and feeling. With a big laugh your stress of a week will be disappeared.

"The Lord Of The Rings"
The trilogy is based on the stories created by J.R.R. Tolkien. The three films were on the cinema some years ago and became really popular.
The film is set in the Middle-earth, a fantasy land created by Tolkien.
It's a high fantasy film about a Hobbit(a fantastic creature, similar to a dwarf, even they are not the same)is given a ring which he has to destroy. He'll be helped by many other characters who will fight for the ring against hordes of orcs, goblins, trolls and dark knights.
I strongly recommend "The Lord Of The Rings". It's a simply amazing film that you have to watch.
