About movies

Marvin's Room is the name of a movie. It's a very beautiful story, nothing great, nothing incredible, but shows that day-to- day life is full of pretty small things. If we learn how to look at the small things in life, maybe we wouldn't need a mobile phone or a big car to make us happy.

Diane Keaton plays the role of a simple woman taking care of her parents. She becomes very sick and realizes that she has been very happy because she was able to love her parents.

People usually want to receive things, but it would probably make us happier to give without expecting anything in return.

There is another person in the movie that shocked me -- the woman's nephew. He is a young boy that is violent but turns into a generous and comprehensive person, just because somebody trusts him.

So it seems you reap what you sow.

I thank the people who chose to make this movie so everyone could enjoy it.

Addicted to Love is a nice name for a bad movie. How our own imaginations create stories! With this name, you can imagine a beautiful love story with a happy ending, but nothing can be farther from the truth. The underlying theme of the film is revenge and how to break up a relationship. It makes no sense in my opinion -- where is the freedom of the other person in the relationship or their right to choose?

There are many good films we miss just because the actors are not famous or because the name of the film is not suggestive or inviting enough.
