The Long Walk Home

I did not regret to watch this movie. This movie makes me cry. It's very sad movie. It is about discrimination by white people. The movie in the story happened in Montgomery 1955. Racism is seen in this movie, the blacks who were living their lives normally even though they were descriminated but it was still considered acceptable for them. They had a seat on the bus. One day they whites stopped the blacks from sitting on the bus, they had to walk. They need to walk every day for working. Well a black woman named Odesa, was only a maid, she was absolutely harmless to people and from that day she had to walk to work, imagine how tiring it is to be a main and now she has to walk to work. But the white persons in the story are not bad all. There was a white family that was so nice, the wife even offered lift to Odesa. But it wasn't really possible as her husband was working against the blacks. But once again the Whites threaten them, but i love Odesa's bravery, because of her, unity was brought to people.

Cold Mountain

I saw this movie long long time ago, so I think I can't summarize this movie well. I remember that I really enjoy when I saw it. Because I really like Nicole Kidman. It is very romantic movie when both of them try to reach each other. Nicole waited for her lover while Amen was in duty during the war. If I have a time, I'll definately see this movie again.

The Untouchables 1987


The Untouchables is one one of the greatest gangster movies. This movie begins with Ness arriving in a gang driven Chicago vowing to clean up the city. Along with his friend and adviser Jim Malone (Sean Connery), Ness takes on Capone and things then begin to get nasty.

This is Kevin Costner's finest film, he plays the earnest Eliot Ness, the federal agent who wanted to bring down Al Capone anyway legally possible but eventually gave in to the teachings of his Irish mentor Jim Malone and started to fight dirty and ultimately used blackmail to thwart Capone.Costner has rarely been better, and he has strong support from Connery in his award winning performance and from Andy Garcia and Robert Deniro.

The Untouchables is an enjoyable movie. I love this film because it has an action genre but isn't your typical 1987's action movie. This one would relate to more of a drama, and a good one at that. The acting and directing is top notch, and gives a great performance of Kevin Costner. This movie is one of my favorite drama features.

Drums in the Deep South


At first, I think “Drums in the Deep South” like most westerns of its type; it has a very basic plot. Nonetheless, except for the beginning and the very end, I found it to be an interesting and captivating movie. But the most I had a problem with in this movie was the reconstruction and the general attitudes for the South following the war contradict that concept completely.

Based on actual events, two friends Clay Clayburn and Will Denning became best friends when they studied at West Point. Now, however, they find themselves on opposite sides during the Civil War between the states. Friends become enemies when the lines of the Civil War are drawn. While Will is fighting for the Union Army in the North, and Clay has sided with the Confederacy in the South. The two finally come face-to-face again in combat three years later when Clay receives artillery detail in the mountains of Georgia, and neither knows it as each is in an artillery position hundreds of yards from the other. The Union advance is halted by a mountaintop battery, manned by Clay and 20 Confederate soldiers, while on a nearby plantation, Clay's wife, Kathy spies on the Yankees, including Will, and delivers information to her husband. His mission is to destroy General Sherman's railroad supply line. Will tries his hardest to stop him. However, the love of Clay's life, Kathy Summers, does know and tries desperately to save her two good friends from killing each other.

Tom Sawyer


I think Tom Sawyer movie was colorful and exciting and fun. Tom Sawyer book was written for kids, but lends itself to a movie like this new musical version. The director has placed an unpretentious and cheerful movie that uses its music well.

A mischievous orphan with a knack for tall tales, Tom lives with his exasperated aunt in the riverfront town of Hannibal, Missouri. Tom's life is a series of clever and irrepressible adventures.

Tom Sawyer is born in a small town on the banks of the Mississippi River and brought up by his aunt. Tom is an energetic and kind boy who always seems to find himself in trouble. Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn explore the banks of the Mississippi River. But, they are interrupted during their lazy summer on the Mississippi River by a thrilling steamboat robbery. After witnessing a murder in the graveyard, Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn decided to run away to Jackson Island. They see the evil knife throwing Indian Joe and realize that he is the murderer. Then their real troubles begin. Follow this exciting adventure to its climax as Tom and his friends finally battle against evil in the dark scary caves.

Huck asks Tom what they would have done if the escape had worked, and Tom says they would have continued having adventures down to the end of the Mississippi. After they finished, they could ride back home on a steamship, in style, and they would all be heroes.
In conclusion, Huck tells readers that Tom is well now and wears his bullet around his neck on a watch-guard. He says that, if he had known how much trouble it was to write a book, he would not have tried it. Now that he is finished, he must "light out for the Territory ahead of the rest" in order to stay one step ahead of civilization and live in true freedom.

The New World

The New World is based on fact story, offering a chance to explore his familiar theme of man versus nature. So, it's lovely to look at because it takes an audience into the rarefied atmosphere of an art film made.

The New World is an epic adventure of European and Native American cultures. Inspired by the legend of John Smith and Pocahontas, acclaimed filmmaker Terrence Malick transforms this classic story into an exploration of love, loss and discovery.

Against the dramatic and historically inhabited by a great native civilization, Malick has set a dramatical tale of two main characters, a noble young native woman and an ambitious soldier of fortune.

In the early years of the 17th century, North America is a vast land of endless primeval wilderness populated of tribal cultures. Although these nations live in graceful harmony with their environment, their relations with each other are a bit more uneasy. All it will take to upset the balance is an intrusion from the outside.

On a spring day, three small ships bearing 103 men sail into this world from their distant home, the island kingdom of England, three thousand miles to the east across a vast ocean. They are seeking to establish a cultural, religious, and economic foothold on the coast of what they regard as the New World.

The lead ship of the tiny flotilla is called the Susan Constant. Shackled below decks in her ship is a rebellious 27-year-old named John Smith (Colin Farrell), the sentence and destiny will change as soon as the ship reaches land.

A veteran of European wars, Smith is a soldier who talented and popular to have his neck stretched by his own people, and so he is freed by Captain Christopher Newport soon after the Susan Constant drops anchor. As Captain Newport knows, and the colonists will soon discover that surviving in this unknown wilderness will require the services of every man.

Though they don't realize it at the time, Newport and his band of British settlers have landed in the midst of a sophisticated Native American empire ruled by the powerful Chieftain Powhatan. To the colonists, it may be a new world. But to Powhatan and his people, it is an ancient world, and the only one they have ever known.

The English, strangers in a strange land, struggle from the beginning, unable or, in some cases, stubbornly unwilling to fend for themselves. Smith, searching for assistance from the local tribesmen, chances upon a young woman who at first seems to be more woodland sprite than human being. A willful young woman whose family and friends affectionately call her "Pocahontas" or "playful one", she is the favorite of Powhatan's children. Before long develops between Smith and Pocahontas, a bond so powerful that it changes friendship or even romance and eventually becomes the basis of one of the most enduring American legends.
