IV. Read the
texts and answer the questions. Write A, B, or C.
A
Billy Elliot
Stephen
Daldry’s first feature film is set in the north-east of England during the
miner’s strike of 1984. A motherless boy, Billy Elliot, from a mining village,
takes up dancing against the wishes of his father and elder brother.
Regrettably, the depiction of the working classes of that time is rather
stereotypical.
The heart of
the film, however, is in relationship that Billy strikes up with his
dance teacher. Mrs Wilkinson is a
soul who finds as much genuine pleasure in the talent and hope of this
11-year-old as she does in the discipline and support that she provides for
him.
B
Bend it like Beckham
Football’s
uncommon ability to bring a nation together is celebrated in this sweet,
positive youth movie. Set in modern-day London, the film tells the story of
Tess, whose two greatest loves in life are David Beckham and kicking a ball about.
Unfortunately,
her family cling to traditional Asian values, and while they’re willing to
tolerate her fanaticism the very idea of their daughter joining a local girls’
team makes them angry.
Actresses
Paraminder Nagra and Keira Knightly both have personalities, but credit should
also go to the writer and director for getting the balance right between humor
and pathos, sporting and romantic action.
C Cinema
Paradiso
A successful
movie director in his 40s, Salvatore returns home to Sicily after hearing of
the death of Alfredo, the ex-projectionist at the village cinema. Most of the
film is a flashback to Salvatore’s World War II childhood and adolescence when,
obsessed by movies, he is befriended by the wise Alfredo. Their bond is one that
contains many highlights and tragedies and shapes the way for Salvatore to move
out of his run-down
village to
pursue a dream.
