  My favorite movie is Home Alone. This movie was released July 6, 1991 in the World. The director is Chris Columbus. Main actor are Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern. Home Alone get to Academy Award for Original Music Score and Academy Award for Original Best Song. Box office results was $476,684,657 in the world.  A family decides to go to Paris together. However, Kevin, the son, is left alone in the house in the confusion of their departure. Kevin is elated at the prospect of living alone for the first time. Then, a pair of thieves who are after his house in his absence notice the house he is staying in. Kevin sets out to fight them off in order to protect his home. The first foreign movie I ever saw was Home Alone. I saw this movie when I was about the same age as Kevin, the main character in Home Alone. I remember making a TV recording and watching it over and over. One of the scenes I remember in particular is the one where he puts on his father's irritating shavi...

 Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was my first Tarantino movie.The dialogue between Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt was funny and showed how well they get along.

The film is structured in such a way that it begins with the ending, why is the ending the way it is? and then the mystery is unraveled. I've never seen a movie structured like this before, and it was exciting and a new feeling for me.

I had never seen a single Stanley Kubrick film. My impression from many of the trailers was that many of the scenes were violent and exciting. Also, the music during these scenes was distinctive and habit-forming. The music, especially during the horror scenes in "The Shining," was very scary.

I was most interested in The Birds among Alfred Hitchcock's works. When I saw the trailer, I was amazed at what a movie it was. I was intrigued by the fact that it is a film that is not often seen in contemporary cinema.

 My favorite Steven Spielberg movies are Jurassic Park and Minority Report. Both films are far removed from the real world, but I felt that Spielberg is good at creating films in which we imagine what would happen if this were to happen.

 I don't think any entertainer could top Michael Jackson. I feel he is cool no matter what he does. I wish I could have seen him live. I am saddened by his untimely death.

I hate horror movies. I basically can't handle anything scary. However, there is only one horror movie in my life that I have seen. It is IT2. My friend forced me to watch it. And this movie had both horror and crazy elements in it, which made me feel like I was going to go even crazier. It was scary.

 My favorite comedy movie is Home Alone. This movie is about an 8 year old boy who is left behind by his family during Christmas vacation and uses his ideas to fight to save his home from a pair of robbers. This was the first comedy movie I ever saw in my life. I saw it for the first time in early elementary school and watched the recorded version over and over.

My favorite sports movie is Chariots of Fire. This movie is based on a true story that happened at the 1924 Paris Olympics. It tells the story of Harold, a Jewish man devoted to athletics, and Eric, the son of a missionary, who overcomes discrimination and prejudice to win the Olympics. I think it is a movie that should be seen by Japanese people because they are not familiar with religious and racial differences.

 My favorite romance movie is Titanic. Since the movie is based on a true story, you can enjoy it more if you research and understand the Titanic before watching it. The length of the movie is a bit long (3 hours), but I was so absorbed in it that I didn't notice it at all.

My favorite musical movie is Sing 2. This movie just gives me energy and courage, and I feel that it teaches us the importance of action in order to achieve success.  The recommended point is the song dubbed in Japanese. Only Japan has Japanese version of songs in the world. I enjoyed it in both Japanese and English.

  My favorite film is SHOAH. It is a documentary film that tells the full story of the Jewish concentration camps and the Holocaust by Nazi Germany during World War II, told by the people involved, and compiled into a collection of interviews that runs about 9.5 hours in total. It is quite long and heavy in content, so I cannot recommend it to everyone, but I felt it would be a good idea to see it once while you are a student with time and spare time. The horror that you get from just telling the story through interviews without incorporating any reenactments or visual materials from the time is fascinating.

My favorite Animation movie is ZOOTOPIA. I felt that this film was a mimicry of American society itself. As an American culture major, I enjoyed watching this film and learned a lot by thinking "Oh, this is a metaphor for that case" or "This race is talking about this race and this race". The film is comical and pop at first glance, but it is very deep in its detailed depiction of the sensitive themes of other ethnic nations. Even words said without offense can be taken seriously by the other person, and I wanted to live with the feelings of the other person.

Aladdin The focus was more on women asserting their will than on the animated version of Aladdin. I cried because of the discriminatory things being portrayed against women and the scene where Jasmine stands up to them. I liked the original song, which was only available in the live-action movie.

  Rocketman  I think it's a good movie. Even such successful people are hungry for love and feel lonely. But compared to Bohemian Rhapsody and The Greatest Showman, it lacks power.

WALL-E One of my favorite Pixar films. The beginning of the film, where there is no dialogue for a while, is exciting to watch again and again, and the rich facial expressions and humorous movements of the main character WALL-E are more than enough to demonstrate the great compatibility between 3DCG and mecha. The interaction with the heroine Eve, who looks like an Apple product, is also very funny, and every time I see this film, I think the characters and the world are really good.  

This blog is about the movies I recommend! Do you know this guy? This is Jackie Chan. He is actor of action.  I recommend the movies are RUSH HOUR. This is so cool.
