Discoveries. Ian McEwan

I’m curious enough to follow my instincts when I read a review about a film. Thus it was with the film Atonement based on the novel of the same title by Ian McEwan. When I saw the film, I liked it, but I had the feeling that the novel would give that detailed information I was longing to know and the film, in spite of the beautiful scenes could not provide. I was right. His writing hooks you completely.
Here is a little taste of the film for you to admire the beauty of some scenes:

What I have discovered after the experience of the film is that Evan McEwan is one of the best British literary authors of the present time. His literature is real, deep, modern, and passionate. He explores the human beings and the conflicting situations they inevitably come across. I’ve just finished reading Enduring Love and realized that there’s also a film to the novel. What intensity! And how easily you think you can control a situation that when you are on a dire straits, you just can, or can’t you? Here is a good example of both:

Enjoy them in the original version. They are both stories excellent films and novels.

Wow! What a weird film! This is really an uncanny story... Is it on cinema? I could never have imagined Daniel Craig playing a credible character after seeing him as the last James Bond.

You always explain the films in a way that makes me feel like seeing it.

Helo Nuria! Mariona said that you feel better. It is a great new. I'm looking forward to see this film. I'll try to go this week end.
I post a new text.
See you soon.

Hi Nuria!

The second film gives me goosebumps!

In my opinion, we control less things than we think...

I have a welcome present for you: a new text on my blog! ;)

I think I would prefer Atonement, the second movie looks scaring, good enough for having a nightmare afterwards...

See you tomorrow Nuria!

By the way, I posted a new text, some comments about "Maurice" the novel.

Hello
I saw Atonement and I liked it quite a lot, but this second one...it's a kind of thing that it terrifies me.
I would like to know how Il-commentatore managed to send a post to all of us. I'll like to do it.Please..I'm new in all that stuff.
Thank you

butterfly said...

Hello Nuria
Wellcome!
I'm just in the middle of other little essay, but perhaps it could be better to focus in homework and Maurice. What I have to do? I don't want to waste my time...neither yours.

Hi Virginia..
sorry about that. I didn't considered the song as something else than a good ending to my..blackbird friend.
I've removed the Paul McCartney's song. It was a good exercice because I kept the lyrics on my mind. I know, you didn't ask me todo it, but I did it anyway.
Could you tell me if there were a lot of mistakes in "awake", please?
Thank U

Hi Núria!
I'm glad someone (specially you) is reading my blog! I'll be active as far as I had ideas.
Thank you for reading and correcting it.
And don't worry, everything is ok. I just read last Marichuli's text and it made me think.

See you!
