The animation "Zootopia" reminds me that I can do and be anything I want if I work hard enough for it.

Mine's an easy one: Lord of the Rings, especially Two Towers and The Return of the King. There's just so many great moments.

There are so many! But for now, let me mention The Lord of The Rings.
I am a long-time Tolkien fan. And I loved the films. The casting was perfect. The atmosphere and the visuals the drama the action the romance the humor... just wonderful. I probably watched them 5-6 times...

“The notebook” and “Pride and Prejudice”, my favorite movies of all time. How they fall in love in such a pure way, but have problems being together. Finally love always win and end up being together. I’m never getting over Noah and Mr. Darcy!

"Schindler's List" is a movie from 1993, directed by Steven Spielberg. It's about a man named Oskar Schindler who saved many Jewish people during World War II. The movie is unforgettable because it shows the terrible things that happened during the Holocaust. It's well-made, with great acting and music. The movie is in black and white, which makes it even more powerful. It's important because it helps us remember the past and how people can do good things even in very bad times. It's a movie that teaches us about history and the kindness of people when things are tough.

"Schindler's List," a movie made by Steven Spielberg in 1993, is a very powerful and unforgettable film. It's based on a true story about a man named Oskar Schindler, who saved the lives of over a thousand Jewish people during World War II, especially during the Holocaust when many were killed.

This movie is unforgettable because it shows us just how terrible things were during that time. The director, Steven Spielberg, did an amazing job, and the actors were fantastic. The music in the film is also very moving.

One unique thing about the movie is that it's all in black and white. This makes it look like old, historical footage, which adds to its impact.

The story makes us think about right and wrong and how even in really hard times, people can do good things. It's a way to remember the past and learn about history. Teachers often use it to help students understand what happened during the Holocaust.

In the end, "Schindler's List" is a movie that stays with you, reminding us that even in the worst of times, there can be moments of bravery and kindness. It's a film that teaches us about history and the strength of the human spirit.

“Zootopia” it is the rare animated Disney film that feels like it was made for adults almost as much as children. It's colorful, fun, and has a good message

My favourite movie is “Shawshank Redemption”. I will never forget that movie. The screenplay is simply amazing. Love every bit of the movie. The director ties the loose ends of the movie very well. The movie runs with Morgan Freeman’s narration. He narrates it really well. There is a hint of humour and sarcasm combined in his narration. You feel for the protagonist and wish he gets out of prison. The protagonist faces many obstacles and finally breaks free. I could feel his freedom. The development of the Red character is amusing. Red does not believe at first that Andy (the protagonist) has not committed a crime. But later with substantial proof. He believes him and he feels bad for the fate of Andy. It's a nice movie with lots of drama.

I absolutely love Edge of Tomorrow! It's one of my all-time faves. I've seen it so many times and I always find it super entertaining.

I watched recently the animated movie "Ernest and Celestine" when they first met. I liked the movie because the drawings were simple and sophisticated at the same time. Furthermore, the context of the movie reflects our society's problems now, the author wanted to give some solutions to us, that impact my conception of the world. The happy ending is meaningful.

Resident Evil and The Fifth Element. Both because of Milla Jovovich. I love seeing her on screen.
