Writing a review

As concerns the Writing class, we had to write a review about a movie we had watched. In my case, I chose the romantic movie “A kissing booth”.

Hardly ever I watch movies, I am more fond of tv shows. However, last night I found myself suddenly eager of watching a romantic movie. I could not have chosen a more entertaining movie: “The Kissing Booth”, which tells the story of two people whose fate get tied up by a kissing booth that makes their love bloom. I was really blown away by the clothing and scenery, which was absolutely breathtaking, though the props left a lot to desire.

Firstly, I must say I was astonished at the clothing. It was very dynamic, adapting to the main chatacter’s stage phases and age. We were witness of her physical and personal growth and the clothing was able to reflect this. Furthermore, I found myself captivated by some of the clothing worn by the main characters as it was utterly appealing and trendy.

In addition, one of the highlights of  “The Kissing Booth”  was the scenery, which was entirely astonishing. Set in the West Coast in America, the landscapes and view certainly take your breath away. The whole movie occurs in a beach village, which gives the romance an even more dramatically lovely tone. What’s more, the cameramen have really done their job right, the shoots are incredibly splendid.

Nevertheless, I was not impressed by the props. Actually, they could not match my expectations. They were extremely basic and vain, never changing or entertaining. I find it very pitifully that they could not keep up with the quality of the movie.

Would I recommend this production? If insanely engaging scenery and clothing are your cup of tea, then I would advise you not to miss it. Though it is possible that props do not please you at all.

The snake and the lion

Here there is a fable I wrote with some friends. My part is the one in blue, I hope you like it!

Once upon a time in a big and green Savanna there was a brave but arrogant lion called Samuel. This lion was the King of the Savanna  and all the subjects were afraid of him. Samuel never said please or thank you, and he did not have friends. Nobody dared to challenge him because if they lose they would  be banished. But one day, when Samuel was resting, a misterious snake challenged him. If the lion won he would be banished but if the snake won, he would be the king. The lion acepted carefreely and he continued resting.

The arrogant lion, Samuel, was standing behind a tree. He was thinking the way he could make front and fight with the snake without causing him a suffering death. He knew that he will win the bet but he didn’t want his Kingdom furious and embrassed of their magnificous king, himself. From the other side, the Kingdom will like to know that they had a strong and powerful King who would protect them from all kinds of danger. During his reflection, he did not even see that an owl  was near him and was watching him with caution. When Samuel realiced it, seriously, the owl Albus, warned the king:

-My Majesty, beware of the snake´s cunning. He knows exactly your arrogant thoughts, and he will take advantage of it. Use your wisdom, knowledge and power correctly. Take advantage about your power of lion and king of this wild kingdom. I send you my luck, majesty.   

The fight day arrived, they started to fight, first, the snake hit the lion's feet and the lion hit the floor.Then, he roar and the snake flew for some seconds, when the lion touched the snake for first time, he paralized for an hour and the snake celebrated,  he thought it was done. But when the lion woke up he said that he only wanted to be his friend. Although, when the snake was going to give him a hug he fall again because his skin was poisonous.  The king  did not accept his lost feud and battle, but, unfortunately for him, a bet was a bet, and he had given the snake his promise.

When the lion loses he became the snake's clown in his kingdom to make them laugh. They were always fighting, until the snake got really angry . She put a sword in the lion's neck and told him that if he stills bodering her, she will insert the sword in his heart. The lion accepted and  went to his room, where he hit a photo of the snake with a stick. Then, the snake came and told him that he was sorry about what have happened and that he was going to be promoted. The lion was very happy but they still hate each other.

Some hours after, the lion cried a lot because he didn't win to a small animal like the snake and now he was his personal clown. He told everyone that the snake cheated but anyone believed him. He was very disappointed of losing but furious with the snake, so he looked for it and when he found it. He shouted him:

-¡That was unfair! You are poisonous and you didn't tell it to me, you must give me back my throne.

- I will not give you back your place, because I told it to you, but you didn't listen me

- That's a lie, you didn't advice me, you don't  disserved to be the king. You are very small and innocent.

- I make remember to you that with only a touch of you, you will paralyze of my poison I may be small but I am very clever and strong

After telling this, the lion ran away and nobody knew were he went. Days passed and all the Savanna rest in peace.

Moral: do not judge people before knowing them well.

Informal letter

I wrote an informal letter pretending that I am a charcter of a story which I have readen called "Marionettes Inc" by Ray Bradbury.  In this letter I am pretending I am Smith and I am writing to Nettie to apologyse her.

Dear Nettie

I’m writing to you because I know I didn’t behave properly with you although surely you don’t know it. I know our marriage has not been working so well. So I have decided to start again, start by apologizing and telling you what really happened.

  I was talking with Braling about marriage and he confesed me that he was going on a trip to Rio but alone without telling his wife and leaving a marionette instead of him to stay with his wife. I was very surprised that there was a company which make that, and that Braling wasn’t horrified with the news. But then I started thinking that maybe it was a good idea. We continued talking until he went out, he had made me refresh my mind and think about our marriage and that maybe I could also do it. I’m sorry because I thought that, but this didn’t end there. When I arrived home I looked for  the money ,on the bankbook, to pay the marionette I knew when I saw the bankbook that there was less money than the last time, in that moment I understood what happened, why it all changed and why “you” were recently  different. In that moment I couldn’t believe it but after  some minutes of being afraid I understood it and I decided to write this letter for you. I sent the marionette away from our house because I didn’t want to remember how silly I was.

  I think this is all you need to know. I hope you are having some enjoyable and wonderful holidays. I want you know that this letter doesn’t have  to interfere in  your decision, I thought you needed to know what really happened.

 Hugs and kisses, Smith
