Hi Ana Mari! Hi class!
ReplyDeleteI knew about this awards before, but I didn't know almost anything about "The Impossible", it's a pity, but I haven't see it!
1| Talking about film, the one who won the prize in 1929 was "Wings", directed by William A. Wellman.
2| Yes, of course! "The Sea Inside" is an Spanish film that talks about a man, Ramón San Pedro, who is disable and couldn't do his normal life. He wanted to die, but the Spanish law didn't allow it. So, his wife, killed him (because he asked it) and the Spanish judges called her for a trial. There weren't any evidences, so she was free. Then, she confessed it.
3| No, I haven't. But I want to watch it!
4| Nowadays, I want to see "The Sea Inside", but I'm not so sure... I know I'll cry, and I don't want!
Good post!
Bye class! Bye Ana Mari!
