Subject: Task12

Firstly I would like to say that I loved this task, firstly because I didn’t know there was sites about film scripts, and I loved reading that. The other reason is because I love cinema and all about it.
Well, as I love films I’ve seen a lot of films, and It depends on the gender of film you like to recommend it.

For those who like love comedies, I recommend “The mirror has two faces”. There is a scene where Barbra Streisand, who plays a literature teacher, is given a class. That scene shows the kind of teacher I would like to be. The film is very funny and profound. It is just great.

For those who like drama, “Pay Forward” is wonderful. Shows the story of a boy who has a tuff life and receives from his teacher the challenge of find a way to save the Word. So, he creates the “pay forward”, that is a chain where people receives a goodness from other people and has to make something very good to other three people. This is one that I think all of us should watch and more than that, put on practice.

For those who like comedy, I would recommend “Boat Trip” that is hilarious. It tells the story of two straight men that take cruise on a gay boat for mistake. This is a fantastic comedy.

For the ones who like terror, “The Exorcist” is a classic. For those who are interested on this gender, that is the most scaring film I have ever seen, and, the stories about its director and people who died during the period it was filmed, are even more scared than the film itself.

For those who like suspense, a great film is “The panic room”. It holds your breath during two hours…It’s a great suspense with a brilliant act of Jodie Foster. For those who like classics of suspense, any Alfred Hitchcock film, like “The Man Who Knew Too Much” (1934), Number 17 1932 ring(1946), “To Catch a Thief” and others.

For those who like romance, the greatest romance I have ever seen was Breakfast at Tiffany’s, with Audrey Hepburn. She was a godess of her time and starred most of the best romantic films from all the times. There are other wonderful films like “Love in the afternoon”, “My fair lady” and “Funny face”.

For those who like musical gender, any film from from 50’s and 60’s. Nowadays musicals has not the quality the old ones use to have. My favorite are “The sound of music” and Maty Poppins”. Those are classics.

Who are interested in Europe films, “O Closet” is a very good French comedy and Pedro Almodovar is a great director that was responsible for great films like “Talk to Her” (a fantastic drama about behavior, All about my mother, The law of desire, Tie me up, tie me down, and others.

The films and directors above are, in my opinion, the best of each gender, but my favorite film and, in my opinion, the greatest film from all the times is “Gone with the wind”(1939) that marked the new era of cinema. It was the first colorful film made and the greatest one. For those who are interested on cinema, you must see this classic, that is just great.
