Pay it forward
A social studies teacher gives the class task to think of an idea to change the world for the better and then put it into action. When a young student creates a plan, it not only affects the life of his single mother, but sets in motion an unprecedented wave of human kindness that, unbeknownst to him, has blossomed into a profound national phenomenon.
I think it is a film very exciting and it is very beautiful. Furthermore, it gives us a new perspective on the world. I recommend this film because it is an educational film and because it touches a lot in our hearts.

The Flash
The Flash is an American television series developed by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and Geoff Johns, aired on The CW since October 7, 2014, and starring Grant Gustin.
The series is based on the Barry Allen / Flash character from DC Comics, a costumed superhero who fights crime with his power to move at unbelievable speeds. It is a series located in the same fictional universe of Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow.
I think Flash is very cool because I like speed and heroes and I also like his clothes and his thunder that is on his chest.
I loved this series especially the part when Flash defeats Zoom.

Bruce Almighty, Tom Shadyac
At the end of the worst day of his life, television reporter Bruce Nolan (Jim Carrey), who wants to be the anchor of his city's newsreel, is blocked by the owner of the station Jack Baylor (Philip Baker Hall) for finding him funny too much for the position, begins to ridicule God, who resolves to appear in a human form (Morgan Freeman), for apparently not granting him the right to be the anchor. He gives Bruce all the divine powers for a week, so that the latter can do as he pleases with his life, but also to discover for himself how difficult it is to take care of all the prayers and all the problems of the world, while this God decides to take "vacations". Bruce, now granted of all God's powers, changes his situation for the better, and solves even small problems without difficulty, improving his relationships and his professional life, becoming successful and popular, finally managing to be the anchor of the television news. But Bruce will find that even with all the powers of God in his hands, he is able to bring his love back, Grace Connelly (Jennifer Aniston), learning a great lesson, that God does not forsake us.
We think the movie was fun and funny because it involves faith in God with comedy and it was well produced and we liked the actor Jim Carrey.
We loved the movie.

I've decided to choose this film because it's rather meaningful to me. I'm a librarian and mostly a I love reading.
Even before the television show The Librarians, many movies and shows have used libraries as an environment for scenes in the story. Few stories, however, tell about a library or take place in a library. Jason LaMotte’s short film The Library is a tasteful story set in a beautiful English library.
The interior scenes were shot at Bedales School Library in Petersfield, England, which was built in 1921. On the hand the exterior scenes were shot at the Tonbridge School in Kent.
The film tells the story of a thirteen-year-old Emily who discovers notes that are left for her whenever she visits the local library after school. The notes lead her to love poems, causing her to wonder who is leaving them for her. The two poems in the short film are from a play Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostrand, and from Love’s Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley.
We can surmise that what she ultimately finds amid the ‘codes’ is not what she was expecting. By the end of the film, we have learned along with Emily who was leaving the notes for her – and who wasn’t. One might also be left with a bittersweet nostalgia for the lost youth and, just maybe, a reminder of the power of love.
The soundtrack and all the film mood attracts to us immediately in this simple love story . I strongly recommend it to all, specially book lovers!
