A)- This sentence hides a strong and deep message indeed. I’ll try to explain it with an example, I´ll look to the story of the ant and the grasshopper. The grasshopper played all summer while the ant worked very hard to store for winter, and when it arrives the grasshopper would have liked to do what the ant did. This fiction story brings to light a reality, which is that most people are the grasshopper and they should look at the consequences of their acts. The same happens with futuristic films, that show us the Earth destroyed by mankind. What Jessamyn wanted was to show us that films also made to make us think.
B)- Kenneth is asking for respect in my opinion. If you are going to the theatre, you will always have one play to see and actors, who will perform. The third element is the public, and it´s obvious that if the public is not quite, it´s impossible to represent a story.
I like both of them and I absolutely agree, nevertheless I have to admit I prefer Jessamyn´s sentence, since I love sentences that have deep meanings, in this case, the meaning is beyond my ability to explain what´s its meaning without turning to an example.

There are secrets that are very secrets, like the secret recipe for coca cola or the identity of Jhon F. Kennedy´s assassin. Nevertheless, there are some of them which are not well kept. For example, in Hollywood some people have revealed which is the prize for Oscar losers.
There is an official Oscar Gift bag, which Oscar´s aspirant want, even more than the Oscar itself. Inside that bags, we could find things which value is $100000 or even more, according to gossips’ whisperings.
All this secrecy is because many reasons. Companies donate gifts to the stars in order to increase their sales, and they want people to think that the film star is wearing their product because they like it, not because they asked them to wear it, it´s all a marketing strategy.
What´s more, stars don’t want people to think they are walking advertisements, so they swear to use what´s inside the bag, keeping their mouth close.

A) No, I don’t follow fashion and I won´t be influenced by anyone, although they are my idols. Nevertheless, it´s good these marketing strategies, because maybe we could find something that we like, and it would not be possible if we don’t see film stars using it.
B) Not really, I like to live my own life and the stars’ secrets should stay as they are secrets, or at least they should.
C) Yes of course, I think it´s impossible to get rid of this type of people. I don’t remember many people, but as a person who likes football, I would like to stand out Pique and Mourinho.

The film Alatriste, which relate the live of a mercenary, has been the best Spanish film for years. The film which recalls the Spain of Velázquez excellently. The cast of Spanish actors was impressive, but there is a star that stand out over the rest, Viggo Mortensen, who plays the role of Alatriste brilliantly. This is a film that filmgoers who likes story must see.

Altough the plot of Pirates of the Caribbean is not very clever, the actuations of Johnny Depp as Jack Sparrow are always hilarious and, as usual, Orlando Bloom perform his role absolutely gorgeous.
The film is beautifully filmed and the director (Gore Verbinski) achieved an incredible visual impact. Nevertheless, the story is silly.

One of my favorite films is Some Like it Hot, which was extremely well directed by Billy Wilder. The actors Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis, Joe Brown were all fantastic, but this film has become a classic because of Marilyn Monroe´s performance.
This comedy takes place in Chicago, where gangsters are everywhere. Joe and Jerry are witness of an assassination, and they have to leave Chicago, as a result, the Mafia starts looking for them. In order to escape they disguise as girls and join an all-girl band.
Joe falls in love with Sugar (performed by Marilyn Monroe) and, as you can imagine, he can’t tell her his feelings. Then they all travel to Miami, where there is a Mafia convection and where Joe and Jerry find the gangster again.
There are three reasons to see and love this film: because of its incredible plot, the incredible performance of the actors and, of course, the humor. I recommend it to everyone.
