  1. virgin suicides was a movie which I watched recently was directed by sophie coppola.which is based on the 1993 novel by Jeffrey Eugenides.It was a fine movie which throwed light on the story of four girls living in a suburb in michigan america in 1970s.the story revolves around the life of the five teenage Lisbon daughters,who commits suicide one after other because of lack of freedom.The story is narrated by a neighbour of the lisbon family who gets curious about the incidents sorrounding them.It also got a bit of music in it and a half hearted love story between one of the lisbon s daughter lux and her school smarty trip who any way leaves her which is un justified.

  2. (Well, I actually tried to post my movie review but it appear on my own blog whether than here “MED1915D”.. Therefore I decided to post my movie review here.. Thx for understanding~)

    A movie I saw recently is [The Virgin Suicides].

    The Virgin Suicides is a novel written by Jeffrey Eugenides, and it is then filmed by Director Sofia Coppola in 1999.

    The movie is center with the suicides of the five sisters – 13 years old Cecilia, 14 years old Lux, 15 years old Bonnie, 16 years old Mary, and 17 years old Therese.

    Coppola had used different techniques to illustrate the girls’ story and also to catch the audiences’ attention.

    Trees are used as a symbol of the girls’ life – the trees is green and they look healthy; however, the trees are actually sick “inside”. This metaphor that the girls seem to be fine but deep inside their soul, they are actually suffering.

    Color contrast is also used to catch the audiences’ attention. At the very beginning of the movie, earth tone color is used. Then people dressing in bright color suddenly appear. This is to tell the audience that something is going wrong and the story is starting to begin.
    Moreover, color contrast between the town – warm color, and the bathroom where Cecilia attempted suicide (cool color) represented that Cecilia is living in a different “world” and how depress she is.

    The scene where Cecilia attempted suicide in the cool bathroom, Cecilia was actually holding a picture of mother Mary, the mother of Jesus. This make me feel ironic since the girls are born in a catholic family, they are taught how to love and treasure themselves. However, they committed suicide. Moreover, it also question me, whether Coppola is trying to deliver a message that we are the children of mother Mary and should be loved and tresured?

    As a little conclusion, I think this is a good movie and I do recommend this movie to all of you.

  3. The movie i sawis talk about a famous film star who come to japan to have Filming commercials.And the japanese culture is different from his hometown.so he feel borling and he didn't like to live in japan.so he often come to bar drinking.
    The young lady who has a husband.but her husband seems is a playboy,often leave herself in the hotel.she feel lonely and sad.so she often come to bar drinking too.
    oneday the famous film star met the young lady in bar.Because they have the same culture.at that time they talk very happy.so they become a friend.And later they often go out play together,and the lady life changed,she become happy,at last they found they love eachother.
    This film tell us friends are important.when you have the common language,you will feel happy.
    I think this is a good film.
