Foreign film post

The foreign film that i watched was " LIfe is Beautiful" which is a Italin language film starring Robert Benigni who gives an amazeing performance. I really liked this film very much, the directing and writeing was just simply amazeing. This is the type of film that can bring tears to your eyes. I would def. recommend this film to anybody. I actuallky think this is the best film I've seen in a long time. Just the story between the father and son is enough to just graso you with joy.

Breathless

We watched Breathless which is a 1960 French film directed by Jean-Luc Godard. While watching the opening scene of Breathless I thought the film would suck . I turned out to be wrong. To many this would be a serious drama but it turned out to be a comedy. I think the best seen in the movie is the last one when Micheal gets shot by the police and he runs side to side for like ten minutes while smokeing a ciggeratte lol. That one scenes and just stands out and is just simply amazeing to me. Without that scene i would sya the movie was pretty boreing but with it the film was tookin to another level

Movie Paper assignment

The film i choose for my five page paper is "The Matrix". Which was a groundbreaking film in special effects when it was first released The film stars Keanu Reeves & Lawerence Fishbourne. The film became so successful they made to sequels and is now considered one of the greatest film triligy's of all time

Citizen Kane

Citizen Kane is a 1941 America drama film. This is Olsen Wells first feature film he directed. It was nominated for nine academy awards. The film is considered to be a classic by many. I disagree with that. I suppose at the time it came out it was considered ground breaking, but it really didn't keep my interest. I guess because the same dialoge has been done many times after. The film kind of reminded me of the twilght zone. I personally would not recommend this film i really did not like it to much.

Singin in the Rain

Singin in the rain has been referred to by many as a classic. I have all ways seen bits and pieces of the film but never it's full lengh. To be honset i actually thought the movie would suck because i really hate musicals. But to my surpise it was pretty amazeing and astonishing. For Singin in theRain to made so long ago the effects and colrs used was amazeing. I absolutely would recommend people to see this film. I also like the fact the poked fun at the silent movie era. To make a long story short it was just phenominal. Way past my expectations.
