Ida

Today I would like to write about Ida. This is a movie which almost everyone knows. Ida is a 2013 Polish drama film directed by Paweł Pawlikowski. The film is set in the 60s. Anna before her vows must visit her family. She travels to visit her aunt Wanda and the aunt dispassionately reveals that Anna's actual name is Ida Lebenstein, and that her parents were Jewish and were murdered during World War II. Because of this Anna decides to find their resting place. Anna and her aunt go on a journey and they gain knowledge about the fate of their families. In this movie play Agata Trzebuchowska as Ida Lebenstein, Agata Kulesza as Wanda Gruz and Joanna Kulig, Dawid Ogrodnik, Adam Szyszkowski and Jerzy Trela.
This film has won many awards and August 8, 2014 was a candidate for an Oscar. Ida will compete for the most important world cinematography award for Best Foreign Language Film. This movie received the European Film Award for Best European Film 2014. Ida is also the best film produced by Paweł Pawlikowski. But the opinions about this film are divided and I am curious to know what you think about this film.  ;)

Frozen (Kraina lodu)

Today, I would like to write about the movie Frozen. It is a 3D computer-animated musical fantasy-comedy film and released by Walt Disney Pictures. This film was produced in 2013. In the last few days I have heard many good reviews about it and because of this I also decided to watch it.

And because of this Elsa have to be crowned as Queen. During her coronation Anna accepted Hans's proposal but her sister Elsa refused to grant her blessing. After this occurrence Elsa inadvertently unleashed an eternal winter on the kingdom. Because of this elsa built herself a solitary ice palace. Anna decided to help her sister and she sets out in search of her sister. Elsa brings to life her and Anna's childhood snowman,Olaf. During the search of Elsa, Anna met an icema named Kristoff and his reindeer named Sven who helped her. During the journey Olaf leads them to Elsa's hideaway. Anna and Elsa reunite, but Elsa still fears hurting her sister. Anna needs a kiss from the person who really loves to recover. She thinks that this person is Hans, but it turns out that it have to be the love of a sister. Elsa saves in this way Anna and she thaws the kingdom and helps Olaf survive in summer. In the end Anna and Kristoff become a couple and Hans is deported back to the Southern Isles to face punishment for his crimes against the royal family of Arendelle.
