Blog #2 My favorite movie


Hi I’m Shiori. I am talking about my favorite movie, “Pay it forward”. Do you watch a movie? And what is the reason you watch a movie? I have three reasons. The first one is to study English. As you know, watching movie is good way to study language. You can hear the daily life English and know their behavior. The second reason is to think our society and my life well. The last one is just for entertainment. 

Let me introduce “Pay it forward”. A eleven years old boy, Trevor, is in the US. One day his teacher gives the class an assignment to think and put into action a plan that will change the world for the better. Trevor's plan is a charitable program based on the networking of good deeds. He calls his plan "Pay it forward", which means the recipient of a favor does a favor for three persons rather than paying the favor back...

If you watch “Pay it forward”, you can be more kind.I attached the video clip below. Please check it out, and if you have any favorite movies, please let me know!

  1. Hi i'm Noriko.
    I agree with the idea that watching English movie is a good way to study English. I didn't know "Pay it forward". But I'm sure that I like it. I like the movie which makes our behavior change to be more positive, kinder, more pleasure or something like that. One of my favorite movie is "High school Musical". It is actually a childish Disney Movie but is so positive that I always can get pleasure from it :)

  3. Oh, Kevin Spacey is in this movie - I like him. This is a clever idea and the teacher was very persuasive to get his students to cooperate. I think I would like to watch it.
