Do you like a movie? I'm goofy, I know. It's a silly question. But who can say: "I have got ONE favorite movie, only one". Not me. I love movies and my taste is ectlectic. I know one more thing, I hate movies about war, horrors and stupied comedies. So what do I choose? This is my list: - Star Wars. One of my favorite series. I remember when I watched it first time. It was during a Christmas. It is maybe strange but in Poland there are three days of Christmas. I was maybe 12 years old and I watched it with with a open mouse. - 007. A dangerous and handsome spy, a beautiful woman, fast cars, guns and alcohol. It's funny because I have watched movies about 007 with my parents. Now I know each movie perfect but who cares about it. I can watch it one more time, especially when I started work in the US at 6 am and there was 007 in the TV. - Back to the Future. I love it: a great idea, nice heros in the movie, good jokes and music. Even I'll be old I will back to this movie and cry why don't they make 4th part - Rocky. It is a classic and I don't know person who didn't watch it. This is a story like American's dream. A young boxer with a talent who thanks to his power and commitment becomed a champion. I always remember a song and a scene when he runs.

Do you like a movie?

I'm goofy, I know. It's a silly question. But who can say: "I have got ONE favorite movie, only one". Not me. I love movies and my taste is eclectic. I know one more thing, I hate movies about war, horror and stupid comedies. So what do I choose? This is my list:
- Star Wars. One of my favorite series. I remember when I watched it for the first time. It was during a Christmas. It is maybe strange but in Poland there are three days of Christmas. I was maybe 12 years old and I watched it with with an open mouth. (nie mysz!)
- 007. A dangerous and handsome spy, a beautiful woman, fast cars, guns and alcohol. It's funny because I have watched movies about 007 with my parents. Now I know each movie perfectly but who cares about it. I can watch them one more time, especially when I started work in the US at 6 am and there was 007 on the TV.
- Back to the Future. I love it: a great idea, nice heroes in the movie, good jokes and music. Even when I am old I will come back to this movie and cry. Why don't they make a 4th part?
- Rocky. It is a classic and I don't know anyone who hasn't watched it. This is a story like the  American dream. A young boxer with a talent who thanks to his power and commitment became a champion. I always remember the song and a scene when he runs.

 

Hello Hanna,

 

You certainly enjoy a variety of movies and they are all good. Have you ever seen the original Blues Brothers? The plot is a bit basic but there is some fantastic music and comedy in it.

Be careful with your spelling, you made me laugh with one mistake! You have got the idea of articles ('a'/'the') which is good as I know you don't have them in Polish. Just one point - if the word following 'a' begins with a vowel you should use 'an'. This may be the noun or an adjective it is still 'an' if it is the next sound is a vowel. Be careful with the words beginning with 'u' - some of them have the /u/ sound like 'uncle' which is a vowel sound but other words have the /ju/ sound like 'uniform' which is not a vowel sound.

In the description of Rocky you are talking about people's life experiences (or not) so you should use the present perfect - have/has + past participle.

 

I must visit Torun again sometime - it is a beautiful city!
