Before Harry Potter became a sucessful movie, it was a literay sucess. Harry Potter was written by Rowling, she spent ten years writing the whole serie, but just in 2001 the fisrt movie was produced, all the movies sequence were directed by David Yates, and Daniel Radcliffe was the leading actor. While 325 milion Harry Potter’ s books were sold in 64 languages, the movies pocketed 3,47 billion.
The story describes the Harry Potter’s life, he’s a orphan and his parents were famous wizards, with a parent’s inheritance he starts to study in a wizard’s school. All the plot envolves his important last name and the wizard’s learning. Harry Potter was recognized not only by his teachers but too his enemy as a special wizard. All the adventure’s developement envolve this special aspect of Harry Potter; his special power.
The Harry Potter series doesn’t have a great dramatic or sentimental context and we do not expect you to cry with its story, but it’s a wonderful entertainment with a story that envolves all our child’s fantasies, I woukd recomend the Harry Potter series to anyone who likes a great adventures movie with a great special effects.

At Play in the Fields of the Lord’ is a beautiful and moving movie. The main scenes were filmed in Belém do Pará, Brazil, but it is a co-prodution organized by the august director Hector Babenco (Brazil) and the French actor Jean-Claude Carriére. Daryl Hannah, Tom Berenger, Aidan Quinn, Kathy Bates and John Lithgow were in the cast.
Adapted from the 1965 novel of the same name, the movie is a drama and tells the story of two aircraf pilots. They were flying on the Amazon Forest when they had to land in the small city of Madre de Deus  There was a very nasty  police captain and he tried to made the pilots to bombard an Indian tribe called “the Niarunas”. The problem is that one of the pilots was an Indian descendent.
I saw this film when I was a teenager but I remember that I was deeply  moved me by the story. The pictures were beautiful, too; but, the most interesting were the old Brazilian songs playing like soundtrack. It is a great movie, despite that did not use good especial effects. In my opinion ‘At Play in the Fields of the Lord’ is an unmissable movie.

Wicker Park is the most curious film I have ever seen. It is about love and intense psychological drama. Paul McGuigan is the director, Josh Hartnett and Rose Byrne are the leading actors. The movie is not famous and also the cast, but all the comments and critics are the best.

Chicago was the set to the movie. A man fell deeply in love with a woman, but she disappears. So, he caught in an obsessive search for her. Two years after, he finally found a trace and decides to discover what really happened.

Cilff Martinez was the musical producer. The soundtrack is wonderful. His compositions mix sampled instruments with acoustic performances, living all the scenes very exciting.

In the movie have many songs, but the mosto f them are instrumental, the songs were composed by Thomas Newman. American Beauty hás a famous cover Picture for the movie, is an American woman on the “bed of roses”.

The movie is a drama is set in one American city. It´s about one man. He hates the daughter of his wife and he doesn’t  love his wife any more. He changed his life because he thought that doesn’t had anything to lose and motivated by loves prohibited. The man finds freedom and got diferent with himself and with his wife. Lester is the name of this man. His experiences showed which freedom isn’t a “bed of roses” it seems.

At the time, it was launched without much racket, it did not have much success and it was called movie “cult” for the critical for to have an original and intriguing history about what it exists after the death and on the possibility being able to change our future. The movie was conquering the public with passing of the time for having a firm history and a different script of that until then the North-American cinema it makes. But it is not only therefore that the film is one of my favorites. Donnie Darko is also the name of the protagonist of history.
