Hi Paul,

Yes, I have. Last week I went to see “Twighlight”! I was so excited to see my favourite film back to cinemas!

This romantic film was directed by Catherine Hardwicke and based on Stephenie Meyer’s novel. The action took place in The State of Washington and thanks to the excellent acting of its characters, the film has been awarded several times.

The story of Bella, played by Kristen Stewart, and Edward, by Robert Pattinson, has got to theheart of young and old ones: after moving from mum’s house to dad’s one, Bella meets at school a strange family that hide a secret. Bella falls in love with Edward, a member of that family… is she going to stay with him however scary his secret is? I leave you with this curiosity. The plot is moving and breathtaking. I really recommend it to you.

Enjoy the show!
