Review:

“Valentin” is set in Buenos Aires in the year 1960. Valentin, the main character, is nine years old and lives in a very simple house with his grandmother. Unluckily, he does not see his mom regularly and his dad does not care about him. He does not have many friends. Valentin is a very timid boy, who really feels alone.
He has two big dreams: firstly, he wants to become an astronaut and secondly he wants to meet his mother. However, his father does not want to do it and is always trying to introduce Valentin his new girlfriends. One day, Leticia appears and Valentin sticks to her a lot. She really helps Valentin and make him feel more supported. Also, a new character is introduced. His name is Rulfo, a pianist. Valentine treats them as if they were his real parents, and starts to behave in a different way.
Finally, I believe this film is an example of love. It also shows the importance of dreaming and having illusions that make our life better.

If only



Film: "If Only"
Genere: Romantic Drama.
Director: Gil Junger.
Actors: Jennifer Love Hewitt, Tom Wilkinson, Paul Nicholls.

Review:
“If only” is a romantic drama, which tells the story of a young couple, who live together. One morning, after having a big argument, the girl has a car accident and dies.
However, this is not the end of the film because, he is given the opportunity to “repeat the day” in order to mend his mistakes. Although the car accident finally occurs, they spend one last day together, without arguing.
This film really amused me. I believe it is a fantastic option that everyone should take into account! It taught me that it is important to realize that life and love are our treasures. We need to look after them carefully.
