Hi Claudia
ReplyDeleteHere is my homework
Cheers
Julio
Which of those films have you already seen?
I have seen AVATAR, THE HURT LOCKER, INGLORIOUS BASTARDS and UP IN THE AIR
How did you like it/them?
I liked very much Avatar, The Hurt Locker (fear,loneliness and addiction to danger) and Inglorious Bastards ( I would give my vote to Quentin Tarantino for The Best Director. Despite the fact that it is bloodier than a regular Tarantino and it has high levels of violence. He had changed the history in this movie).
I really didn't like Up in the Air.
Which one are you planning to see next?
I Want to see A Serious Man, a black comedy from Cohen Brothers and UP, the new animation from Pixar.
Which films are you not willing to see? Why not?
The Blind Side. I’m not very keen to see this movie. I can’t stand Sandra Bullock any more.
Thanks, Julio!
ReplyDeleteMy proposal to tomorrow's class.
Search, print and bring the summary to one or two of the movies you have seen; search, print and bring something about one of the actors/actresses/directors' filmography or any other information you might like to share with us.
See ya!
