Other scene that I like is that they are in the pool after the party, I also find it very romantic.

Romeo and Juliet- María

My favorite part of the movie is when Romero goes to find Juliet, thinking she was dead, to the church. Coming to this, he decides to kill himself because he sees that Juliet can't live , Juliet wakes up and sees that his lover is dead on her, that is where she decides to kill herself. This part is my favorite because it is one of the most important in the story.
                       Harry Potter review   


Harry Potter is the name of the famous science fiction saga directed by Chris Colombus , Alfonso Cuarón , Mike Newell and David Yates and they made 8 films ( the film number 7 has two parts so I say that they are 8 ).Those films are based on the books of "Harry Potter" written by J.K.Rowling.
                                      
Harry Potter`s story is about an orphan boy that lives with his uncle , aunt and cousin .. but they are very selfish with him and Harry hates them , however .. when he turns eleven incredible things start happening that he never has imagened and they will change all his life because he discovers that he is a wizzard! First .. he dident trust that it was true but when a very big man destroied his door in his own house .. Harry started to discover some things that he had never belived were posible. The best part for him was when he starts in "Hogwarts" a school for wizzards in which he is going to meet his best fiends , Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger.
These films aren`t short , they are very long and they lasts for about 2 or 3 hours. They have got great special effects. It`s an interesting fim because the actors are very funny and hard working too . I really enjoy how each magical objet that appears in each fims suits perfectly waht`s going on in the plot.
I love this film, I know that a lot of people doesn`t like it but in my opinion is amazing because you have hours and hours of great entreintament and I`m a Potteric (fans of Harry Potter that call themselvs Potterics) and I know that if you see all of those films , you`ll love this saga.
Please DON`T MISS THEM!

María

Hi Greta, sorry but I couldn't do the job, I didn't find any results that I had to look. Mi search was "current news". Greetings, Maria.

THE ORIGIN OF COUNTRY MUSIC

The country (also called country and western) is a musical style emerged in the 20s in rural areas of the southern United States. Its origin is the folk music of some European countries of immigrants, with other well-established musical forms in America. The name "country" replaced the hillbilly
The traditional country, is essentially playing stringed instruments such as guitar, banjo, fiddle and bass, but also frequently intervened accordion (French influence) and harmonica. In the modern country are mostly used electronic instruments.
The Carter (The Carter Family) family was the first to record a country song disk, along with Jimmie Rodgers, reforming this genre with the initial name of "hillbilly" which later would give way to simply "country". Both with their respective styles influenced many singers who followed them. In the 40's were mostly singers like Pete Seeger and Hank Williams that helped its growing popularity.

Thus, the term country, is now a catch in which different genres are included. Each style is unique in its implementation, in the use of rhythms and chords, but many songs have been adapted for different styles. For example, the song "Milk Cow Blues", an old blues tune Kokomo Arnold has been interpreted in a wide variety of styles from country, from Aerosmith to Bob Wills, to Willie Nelson, George Strait, Ricky Nelson and Elvis Presley.

Crespusculo review (new)- María

"Twilight" vampire saga is directed by Stephenie Meyer and published in 2005 His other films are called "New Moon", "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn", the main actors are Robert Pattinsno, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner.
This series was based on just two characters: When Isabella Swan moves to Forks, a small town in Washington state, thought to be the most boring thing that can happen. But his life is exciting and terrifying turn when he meets the mysterious Edward Cullen. Until then, Edward had controlled his life, especially his vampire identity until met. Throughout this saga highlights different stories and new family clans, which would cause danger in their relationship.
The films dures one hour and a half, maybe two. It has incleibles special effects and never get bored with them. His characters are great and they will help you to see the movie more interesting and addictive.
I love sagas and especially the vampires are very immersive and is recommended for all but children, don't miss!
