"Deathwish on The Chorus:
It must have been when I was around 12 or 13 that our school took us to the theatres to watch "The Chorus". It was the kind of film I had never seen or remember seeing before. It completely changed my opinion on teachers and school on the general. It taught me how to give my heart and be kind,to help those who are in need,to be passionate and gon't give up on anyone.

"Day 14 - A movie that no one would expect me to love
I usually dont like movies that i figure out in first 20 minutes. and this is one of those movies but I really liked it, may be because I was in quite a dull mood and study wise things weren't going fine (I am a nerd and 2 time pointer:D)so i wanted a uplifting film that's why I loved it and I really appreciated the songs and their poetry though i had to read them but hey what the hell! its good!
