WORLD BOOK DAY

Hi again, students!

As you know, we celebrated St George's Day yesterday in Aragon and other regions in Spain and other countries. In addition, it was World Book Day. One of the reasons why we celebrate this festivity on this day is the coincidence of Miguel de Cervantes and William Shakespeare's date of death.

Today I suggest you doing the folllowing activity. It is a Webquest. First you should read Shakespeare's timeline and then answer the quizz. Just click on the following link.

I hope you like the webquest,

Intouchables

"Intouchables"  delivers one of the funniest, most honest and touching films I have ever seen.

Sy is a failed robber, going through the motions and playing the stereotypical jobless inmigrant. Cluzet is a romantic and melancholy mind trapped in a useless body. The circumstances that bring them together are too funny to spoil here, but they meet , and a strange relationship quickly blossoms as they bring out the best in each other.

The film's simplicity is delightfully misleading: the script is a masterpiece of comedy writing, and however good the rest of the cast is, the central duo is magical. Sy's comic timing will have you in stitches, but it is his honesty and vulnerability that make you fall in love with the character. Cluzet isn't your typical sad-sack, instead, much of the finest pleasures in the film consist in watching him use his keen mind to mess with the world around him (a subplot about an abstract painting really takes the biscuit, you'll know it when you see it).

This is one of the most unique, beautiful and honest friendships ever committed to film. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry... a delightful celebration of everything in life that makes it worthwhile.
