HUGO

                                                            Hugo
The movie Hugo is a great movie it has many great parts in it I recommend to you too watch it or even read the book.  It is a great movie too realize what kind of life you have. Knowing you have a lot of stuff other kids did not . Im gonna tell you just how it effected me and may effect you also.
Hugo is simply excellent as on everly good level it has production design, editing, art design writing, ascting, and direction. There is a great part in this movie that gives an example too editing and design, at one point a train go through the whole building just because a young boy named Hugo is in the middle of the train tracks and the train is going full speed and the try stopping it yet it cant stop and the train busts through the builing and out through the building. It looked so real The directors and editors did an amazing job.  This imaginative film about wonders, spirited and endearing 12 year boy living in the walls and hidden places were he was never seen, lively train station in Paris in the times people were very broke. But it was always  enjoyable, beautiful to look at, positive, magical in several ways.            
But the film is more than just that. It’s also about the importance of family, of the basic joys and difficulties of just growing up about childhood and the wonders of being a child and about everyone, kids and adults, finding their way in life, their purpose in life, and connecting the life dots of the past, the present and the future to make sense of things, if that’s at all possible. All of that may sound crazy, but the film is not heavy at all.
  Along with equally smart messages about the importance, joy and wonder of magic, illusions, storytelling and imagination. At one point in the movie a actor in the movie also none as George, does an amazing magic act he was known as “ Fantastic” magician. He does amazing acts too where people will never know how exactly he did it.  Into a film that will only leave you positive, upbeat and  make you think hard about people and life and how sometime life just aint fair. But everyone live hard time but it’s the good and great times that overcome the bad times.
This movie was fantastic ! I always think Maybe it’s true  that happy endings do only happen in the movies, but for about two hours provides a wonderfully

Star wars

I recently watched a movie Star Wars. It was a great movie. The galaxy is about to begin a huge war. Spies of the rebel alliance have stolen have stolen plans to the Gallic Empire Death Star. A huge ship bigger than a planet.     The leader of the Rebels, Princess Leia is in possession of the plans, but her ship is captured by the imperial forces under the command of evil lord Darthe Vader. Before she is captured, Leia hides the plans in the memory of a droid named R2D2 with a holographic recording the droid escape as to another planet with his friend C-3PO.                                                                                                                                                               
   The droid are quickly captured by the Jawas who sell the pair to moisture farmers Owen and Beru Lars and there nephew, Luke Skywalker.  While Luke is cleaning R2D2, he accidently opens the holographic in which she is asking for a request of Obi Wan Kenobi.  Next morning upon finding R2-D2 after he escapes to seek Obi-Wan, Luke meets Ben Kenobi, revealing he to be Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan tells Luke of his days as a Jedi Night. One of a faction of former galactic peacekeepers who were wiped out by the Empire. Contrary to his uncle's claims, Luke learns that his father Anakin Skywalker fought alongside Obi-Wan as a Jedi Knight before he was betrayed and killed by Vader, Obi-Wan's former pupil who turned to the dark side of the force.
    Obi-Wan views Leia's complete message in which she begs Obi-Wan to take the Death Star plans to her home planet of Alderaan for her her father to retrieve and analyze. He then asks Luke to accompany him and learn the ways of the Force. Luke initially refuses, but changes his mind after discovering that Imperial storm troopers have destroyed his home and killed his aunt and uncle in search of C-3PO and R2-D2. Obi-Wan and Luke hire a guy named Han solo and his and his buddy Chewbacca to transport them on their ship, the Millennium Falcon.
Upon the Falcon's arrival at Alderaan, they find that it has been destroyed under the orders of the Death Star's commanding officer Grand Moff Tarkin to demonstrate the Death Star's power. The Falcon is caught by the nearby Death Star's tractor beam and brought into its hangar bay. While Obi-Wan goes off to disable the tractor beam, Luke discovers that Leia is imprisoned on board and, with the help of Han and Chewbacca, rescues her. After several harrowing escapes, they make their way back to the Falcon, though Obi-Wan is killed in a light saber duel with Vader. The Falcon escapes the Death Star but, unknown to everyone on board, the Empire has placed a tracking device on the ship to follow them to the rebels' hidden base.
The rebels analyze the Death Star plans, disclosing a vulnerable exhaust port leading to the station's main reactor. Luke joins the assault team, but Han collects his reward for the rescue and leaves and says no to Luke's request for him to stay. The rebels suffer heavy losses after several failed attack runs, leaving Luke one of the few surviving pilots. Vader appears in a group of TIE fighters and attacks Luke, but Han returns in the Falcon and fires at Vader's wingmen, sending Vader's ship careening into space. Guided by Obi-Wan's voice telling him to use the Force, Luke successfully fires into the exhaust port, destroying the Death Star seconds before it can fire on the rebel base. Luke and Han are subsequently awarded medals by Leia for their heroism.

What is an Epic film you ask and how does it typify the movie Ben Hur? An epic usually consists, romance, action scenes, and drama. Ben Hur fulfills all these expatiations on an epic movie. This film shows the struggle of a man trying to keep his faith while giving hints on the history of Jesus Christ.
     In the film Ben Hur Judah encounters Jesus, in fact Jesus saved his life from hydration. His journeys that no man would barley be able too make it.  And ends up to be one of the governors greatest empire or the word. And everything that happens too Judah is just faith it seems like the saying, “Everything happens for a reason”. In the some what middle of the movie Judah is betrayed by his best friend so his friend could become powerful and is treated horrible.  It’s all from an accidental high injury ranked memory. His friend knew it wasn’t his fault but sent them.                                                                                         
              Eventually Missal (his old friend) dies. And before he dies he tells Judah where his family really is. And he goes and sees him also tries to give God a drink of water before he goes and get hung on the cross. As god is killed on the cross Judah says one last prayer then god passes away.
      Toward then end a lot more epic stuff comes. For example the final scene is complete happiness. Because Judah’s mother and sister has leprosy and God sends rain of healing  witch saved them and everyone is just happy with the results that everything turned out away anyway just to show everyone that he rules with an iron fist.
    The film Ben Hurl was cast in 1995, the production of the film was a big rumor spreading rumors that some people were getting injured and that someone had died. But fortunate on of the rumors was real. Not only did the filming take place in Rome but they also constructed the whole stadium from scratch.  The whole movie cost close too 15 million dollars witch aunt to much these days.

Vertigo

I recently watched the movie Vertigo. Its was directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and it was an amazing movie. The movie is mostly about “obsession”. It’s the kind of “Wooah what just happened” movie. Scotty is a man who faced death. After breaking up with the first woman he fell in love, he tries to pick up his life again and starts new. Then is offered too look over a woman named Madeline, the woman who opens the mysteries of love.
   The first woman of the movie was named Midge. She was a beautiful lady. She had blonde hair, glasses and was deeply deeply in love with Scotty. At ne point of the movie she was following Scotty and got really jealous of seeing him with other people. At another point of the movie Midge paints a picture of her on this picture that he has been worried about. And on the paint midge puts her face where the girls face is supposed to be. My opinion about these to adults is that one day they will be back together. Midge was very obsessed with Scotty
   The second important relationship is Scotty and Madeline. Scotty was a cop ordered to watch Madeline. He was a very handsome man and had a huge heart. Madeline was a beautiful woman as well. Blonde short hair, always dressed nice and just like Scotty she also had a huge heart. They first probably realized they had feelings for each other when Madeline tried killing her self in the bay. He brought her home and the shared there first kiss. Later on after that they started seeing more of each other and fell in love. Scotty was very obsessed with Madeline.   
The third couple was Judy and Scotty. But this time Judy was the one that was obsessed with Scotty. See, Judy loved Scotty but really Judy reminded Scotty of Madeline. He tried everything in his power to make Judy look like Madeline. And Judy loved Scotty so much that she would let him. Every time he would tell her to change something about her she would say “ will you like me for me if I do it” Later on in the movie Judy ended up passing away from what I think happened which was she fell out of the church, were Madeline did.  Judy truly loved Scotty.
 The movie was a wonderful movie! It sure did keep you on the edge of your seat. The end was fantastic also. You will never know what happened too Judy. Did she fall or was she pushed, we will never know.

My thoughts of the pros and cons of using songs in the movies. Is that there are good things about it and there are bad things also . Because some people may like the whole musical thing but all a lot of people don’t.! Its also a good thing sometimes because a lot of times people any age can go see it. So that way families can spend time with eachother.
        The pros of having music in films is that when the movie starts too get boring, they play a song, and suddenly it is not that boring musicals tend to bring in more business than drama or even comedies,so youll have a bigger result of people too come see the movie.. There are also a lot more pros of having music in movies. Another one is that sometimes having songs in the movies is them showing how there feeling emotionaly . Wether there singing about them being happy, mad, sad, or angry. Another pro is a musical can teach little kids good things. For example all movies have a meaning to them and can teach kids great things.
         The cons of having music in movies is that sometimes they can be very boring. Another con is that when you go too movies you usually wanna bring a date but most guys don’t really wanna see a musical. And another bad thing is I bet editing thee movie is really difficult! Another thing that is probably hard is picking someone too sing because you have to pick the right person too sing or the movie wont come out as good.
        Theres many pros and cons when it comes too movies and singing. But that most of the main ones . People all around the world go and see musicals and everybody has there own opinions about them. Whether they dont like them or wether they think there great or if they thin there just ok.So that is basically all that I know about the pros and cons of having music in movies
