October Movie Favorites Review



Hi everyone! Long time no see. Well, there's probably no excuse for being a month absenced and not posting, so I'm just going to start my post, because this is my favorite one to do. And if you guys clicked here, you probably know which one it is already.

This month, even though I was pretty occupied with school work and tests, I still had time to watch some movies. Although, this time I couldn't start any new tv shows, because I just didn't have the time and energy to do so. So these 5 movies were not all watched on Netflix, the first one I watched at school and than the rest of them were watched on Netflix. Than you all probably can find them and watch them pretty easy.

So let's start, shall we?

1. Dead Poets Society

"Carpe diem, seize the day, make your lives extraordinary".

This movie was so so inspiring. I felt like I just had to make a change in the world I don't know why. It made me think a lot about our school system, how we have to follow books and not learn to think by ourselves. And how we are so used to that, that if we step out of the line we are misunderstood and called crazy by those that always followed it. This movie just makes you think, you know?

Mr. Keating, the teacher that inspired all those students to stick up for themselves and follow their dreams, reminded me of some teachers I had in the past. They were just a few, probably only 3, but they affected my life in such a positive way that I will never forget them, never. And this movie made me realize how important is to have teachers like these and how the role of teachers in our society is just so significant for helping built character in people.

The last thing I want to do is to recommend this movie to everyone who wants to watch a very educative and inspiring movie, that has the power to change your point of view in the world. There is a quote that I remember from this  movie that is really beautiful and meaningfull, actually all quotes are, but this one is one of my favorite, and it is " No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas, can change the world".

2. The Age of Adeline

I saw this movie with my mom and we both loved it, specially her, she loves these types of romantic movies that is related to destiny. And the whole story is very interesting and creative, I never saw anything like it. The main reason I watched this movies was because of Blake Lively, I am a huge Gossip Girl fan.

My favorite thing about the movie, kind of shallow but very beautiful, was the fashion through ou the decades. They represented all the years with such perfection, that actually made we want to live in that time. And another thing that I loved was mother and daughter relationship. Altough the mom looked younger and the daughter older, that didn't bother them and alter the love they felt for each other. What I thought was beautiful.

I recommend this movie for everyone who loves a great destiny romance or if you have an interest for physics, because in my opinion physics plays a huge role through out the story.

3. Magic Beyond Words

I LOVED IT. This is a film all about J.K Rowling. If you are a Harry Potter fan you surely have to watch this. I learnt so much about J.K Rowling and how the HP books were created. J.K is just such an inspiring person, her entire life she chased her dream in becoming a writer and it wasn't easy, a lot of obstacles. But she made it and this is her story.

I recommend this movie of course to all HP fans out there and for all of those who need something inspiring to keep you going and chasing your dreams too!

4. Restless

This is not your usual boy meets girl type of cliche story. This is different. The boy is obssesed with death and funerals and the girl is going to die from cancer. And the main focus of the film is the character development of this boy who didn't feel nothing in behalf of stranger's deaths, to feel everything when someone he loves dies.

 I love how the couple was together, very unique.

I recommend this movie to everyone who loves a very unique indie movie, someone who likes to meet very bold charcters that have very "odd" personalities.

5. The Imitation Game

I thought this movie was amazing. I love films that are set in the WWII, actually I love all history movies in general. And this movie, let me tell you, I actually learnt so much with it. I never thought that the first computer was actually created in the 40s, and that it was at first a machine to decode secret german messages. Who knew?

This is just a very great movie to educate yourself on and if you are interested in the history of computer I surely recommend you to watch this. And even though the main point of this movie is the computer, there are actually lots of other situations that go on. The movie talks about homosexuality, feminism, comunism and how all of these controversial topics were treated in the 40s.



Thank you all for reading! And I'm sincerely sorry for not posting for weeks. I'm not going to promise a post a week, because I am pretty busy with finals and projects, because I'm going to graduate in less than a month, so I'm just not going to promise ok?. But you can be sure to see a lot from me in the summer, december probably.

I hope you all had a great week,

Ana
