Written by admin on May 20th, 2010. Posted in Uncategorized

 

Who doesn’t need a day now and then to relax and hang out with your girlfriends, right? But sometimes you feel like you’ve done it all previous to. You want something different, fun, and unique. Don’t get me incorrect; going to the spa and getting a pedicure is splendid and fun, but it might be time to switch it up a bit. So here are a few thoughts for fun girls’ day out activities for you and your friends:

· Antique Shopping: Ok. This might seem that fun, but you’d be surprised. Going from shop to shop looking for discontinued Wedgewood china or rare, antique furniture. And you by no means know, you might just find something incredibly valuable. And make a whole day of this: go to lunch and just delight in each other’s company.

· Go Foreign: Make your day as multi-cultural as possible. Eat at a splendid modest ethnic restaurant and go see a foreign film—preferably with subtitles.

· Sporting Event: This may not be your cup of tea, but getting all the girls collectively anywhere will be fun. Let out your inner tom-boy.

· Learning: Hit up some local museums and historical sites. And to get the most out of the encounter, take a tour. It will be fun and stress-free. What more could you want?

· The Cornucopia: Let everyone in the group choose one thing to do that day. You will have a jam-packed day with each of your picking out a favorite spot. And you’ll get to know your friends a modest bit better.

Whatever you choose to do for your girls’ day out, have fun, delight in your friends, and learn and encounter something new.

The Best Independent Foreign Films

Written by admin on April 11th, 2010. Posted in Uncategorized

Foreign films impart several characteristics which fascinate to a splendid audience who look for original make pleased in movies, this characteristic is the is the topics which differentiate them from the rest of the movies bent by american directors. By living in countries such as USA, Canada, England, etc. viewers as well as producers tend to renovate a one sided approach to movie making biased by their own view and experiences, and it is widely known that artists/directors/etc. who don’t have new experiences tend to make monotonous films due to the lack of inspiration and imagination.

The heart of every movie is the tale line, without it a movie falls apart rather quickly, and this is a key factor which sets each country and boss apart. We can see these differences in movies which described social problems, myths, beliefs and can even be seen in action films. In other words, the problems, experiences and beliefs of a self who living in a country 3000+ miles away from the U.S. will not be the same as those problems and point of views mutual by individuals residing in such country.

These conceptual differences is what attract and unite countries which are interested in each other’s ideological variations. A excellent example can be seen in the American-Asian movie market. Earlier american movies which included fighting sequences did not incorporate martial art moves but because of the high acceptance of such make pleased (martial arts movies), action and fighting sequences demand actors or their doubles to use such moves, regardless of their ethnic background or skin color.

An incorporation of such comment can be seen in the Walker Texas Ranger series, Jean-Claude Van Dame movies, Blade, etc.

The best self-determining foreign films which started these revolutions where the first Bruce Lee films such as: The Huge Boss (1971), Enter the Dragon (1973), etc. But this would just cover a small part of this foreign film genre and there are several of them, not to even mention the foreign language/country where they were bent.

To mention some of the best recent foreign films we would have to quote (in no particular order):

- Amelie (2001): This is a French production which describes a naive girl with a strong sense of justice who decides to help those around her, but the film is not as innocent as the description makes it sound since Amelie ends up helping a “lonely sex shop employee” which earns this movie an “R” rating, but none the less it is an exquisite French production which is very enjoyable.

- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000): This Asian film opened the door to new and artistic fighting sequences which later on where incorporated in productions such as ‘Hero’. Recent Asian productions are known for their artistic, historical and sometimes psychological background which makes it attractive to the masses in continents far away.

- Pan’s Labyrinth (2006): This is a Spanish film which due to its quality and originality was awarded 3 Oscars and nominated 51 times in several categories. The plot line involves the step-daughter of a sadistic army officer (in 1944) who resorts to the fantasy world she made to survive her harsh reality.

As you can see the contrast and difference among these 3 productions is quite noticeable since their foreign language, ideology and tale lines are all different from each other and from traditional american films, and these vital differences will keep attracting audiences from all around the world.
