The Ten Day You Challenge: Post 8 Three Films


Sorry friends i's getting lazy at it so couldn't write out for the last few days on The Ten Day You Challenge. I managed time for everything else but writing out my next post seemed to be such a tedious task. :(:(
Anyways finally i realized I needed to complete this challenge. Here goes out my eighth post on my three favourite movies.



1. If Only

It is a very ordinary story, nothing very much special about it. But you are bound to fall in love with this movie the way it unfolds itself. It conveys a very simple message- Don't take your partner for granted. Show her all the love. Life's too short to live, so why waste it in grievances. Don't be too late in expressing all your love to your loved one. You got to make her feel special. If you are a lover of romantic movies, this one is a must watch.

2. The Boy in Striped Pyjamas


An army officer and his family moves to Berlin as he is Promoted to Commandent of a Nazi Concentration Camp. Bruno, his son is confined to the new house, and all the while he keeps missing his old house, his grandparents, his best friends. And moreover he is lonely, has got no one to play with and his mom restricts him from exploring the nearby areas by his mother. One day while looking out of his window he sees a small area occupied with people wearing striped pyjamas and bald heads or striped hats. He concludes that place to be a farm (but its actually Auschwitz) and asks his mom if he could play with the children of the "farm". His mother strictly restricts him to do so. But the curious child somehow escapes one one day and goes up to the farm. There he befriends a Jewish kid. The movie beautifully potrays the childish bonding and friendship between the two kids of two opposite camps in the times of Holocaust. This is one movie which would bring tears to your eyes.

3. October Sky

It is the story of a boy of fulfilling his dreams with nothing but sheer determination. He is the inhabitant of a place(read coalfields) where the coal mine is the only means of living. Every boy grows up knowing someday he too would be a miner. When this boy and his friends watched Russia launch Sputnik, they decided to make a rocket of their own, inspite of numerous difficulties. The story shows how they are finally successful in making a rocket which gets them the 1st prize in the National Science Fair. Its a beautiful story.
