Movies


Hello again!
Today I want to talk about a movie that I really like, is not my favorite because it is very difficult to choose one. I love a lot of movies!
But I decided to talk about a movie of one of my favorite directors, Quentin Tarantino.
Inglourious Basterds, tells a fictional story set during World War II, is based on the idea that a group of U.S. soldiers have a mission to kill Nazis.

During the film are narrated different stories but they are united in a common goal. The music of the movie I really like, in general the soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino's movies are my favorites.
Actors who appear in this film, including Brad Pitt, Mélanie Laurent, Christoph Waltz, Diane Kruger, Daniel Brühl.

The film is a bit controversial, by its scenes of explicit violence and because historical facts are altered.
The Quentin Tarantino dialogue writing are ironic, playing with reality and fiction, what makes this movie always keep continuing interest, never get bored of it.





The film was released in 2009, and was nominated for best supporting actor Christoph Waltz, who won in this category in the Cannes Film Festival awards, in the Screen Actors Guild at the Golden Globes and the Oscars .



The film was commercially successful, grossing over $321 million in theaters worldwide. It received multiple awards and nominations, including eight Academy Award nominations, including one for Best Picture.
Well, I hope you like the post, and if you have not seen the movie yet, do not think more and watch it, will not regret.

xoxo

Websites that I like


Hello all again! This post is dedicated to websites that I like and that are related to my career. I enjoy visiting websites where they show more interactive artworks.
For example tour the Sistine Chapel, without moving from my house.


I also like to see the paintings through a Google website, called Google Art Project.


The website of the Prado Museum has interactive videos that teach art in an entertaining way.

I left the links to the pages for review; I hope to help you to be more interested in art is also more entertaining. Then do not say that art is boring.
