*My favourite movie..

One of the things that I love is going to the cinema. When I was little, I used to go to the cinema with my brother and parents nearly every Sunday, because we enjoyed a lot seeing movies and being all together. So much so that my father and I decided to do a cinema tickets collection that we still keep hanging on, and there, we have movies like “Billy Elliot” or “The planet of the Apes” which we saw on 2001, when I was only ten years old. Nowadays, we don’t go to the cinema so often as those days, but we still go there when we want to have a good time in family.

So, at the time of deciding which was my favourite movie, I have had some doubts, because there are a lot of films that I like a lot, and I didn’t know what of those movies choose. But finally, I decided to elect the one called “Billy Elliot”.The other day, when I was thinking about my favourite movie, I forgot completelly this fantastic film. But now, when I have looked up on my cinema tickets collection to see which was one of the first movies that I saw, I realise how beautiful is this film and how much I liked it the first time I saw it.

“Billy Elliot” is a Brittish comedy-drama film, in wich an 11 year old schoolboy wants to be a ballet dancer, but unfortunately, his father and older brother, who are miners, are not agree with that, because they prefer to see his little son and brother on a boxing ring instead of dancing. This movie rolls back to the 1984, when the UK miners strike happened. When Billy misses a important audition because his older brother get arrested, his ballet teacher decides to go to talk with his father. Once his father see him dancing, he realises that it’s his real passion, and finally he takes him to an audition in London himself. Billy is accepted on a dancing school, and in the final images of the movie, appear a older Billy dancing as a professional.

The biggest reason of liking a lot this movie, is because it has a message on it and it transmits you something special, in this case the message is something like “if you really want something, if it’s your dream, you have to work on it so hard and be very tough. It doesn’t matter who tries to upset you or who is against you, because if it is what you really want, you can always get it and make your dream become true.”

Although the actors and actresses that appear on the movie are not very known, it doesn’t matter so much if the movie is beautiful and well-done, as happens in this case. The leading actors of the film are the followings: Billy (Jamie Bell), his father Jackie (Gary Lewis), and older brother, Tony (Jamie Draven), and the ballet teacher Julie Walters as Mrs. Wilkinson.

The final moment of the movie is very emotive, when you see that Billy finally has achieved his purpose, his dream. And you realise that his father and older brother are so proud of him too.
