The Wind That Shakes The Barley Review




Hi everyone! Today I will talk about the film "The Wind That Shakes The Barley" directed by Ken Loach. 
I think this film is very interesting to a certain point, because showed me a one reality that I don´t know, the reality from Irish people during the Irish civil war. 

But, the film have a how many parts boring for that reason lose the storyline in many moments. In general, I don´t like the film, but I think that were more short, like one or one half hour, will better.

My favorites character are Sinear and Damien O´Donovan, because they represent the real revolution spirit, the fight until the end for they ideal country an they don´t let the others persons, include the persons that they love, intervene in they ideas.

My favorite scene have a relation with the previous, when  Damien dies before a firing squad commanded by his brother, Tommy O´Donnovan. It´s a very powerful scene, because represent the sense of the duty and honor, consequences of think different and the different ways that two brothers can choose.

Summer vacation (holidays)

  When I think in my best summer vacation, I remember this winter vacations. In this holidays, I visited with my mom the south of Chile, specifically in Purranque, a little town in ten region. In this little town I lived a big part of my childhood, because my parents from here and the most part of my family still live in the nears of the town. This vacations are special because I don´t visited the south of Chile in three years and I don´t see my family in all this time.

My favorite food

It´s  very difficult choose a only one favorite food,  because I love many foods, but If I think a little more, my favorite food is spaghetti with pesto and cheese grated. I think this food is amazing, because the spaghetti is the best food ever, for me, and the pesto and cheese grated deliver a wonderful taste. I love the other plates of spaghetti, like spaguetthi with salse, spaguetti with cream or spaguetti with egg, but spaguetti with pesto and cheese grated is the best. I knew the spaguetti with pesto and cheese grated in the university. The first time that I eat this plate  was very incredible, because I love the taste of pesto. Since this day, I love eat this plate and I hope every day for eat again. The combination of tastes is attractive for the palate and If you want properly appreciate the flavor, you should press the food against your palate and you will feel completely the taste. My day is better when in the menu of ICEI dining room appear s...

The Netherlands is a wonderful country located in Western Europe, I would like to go for different reasons. First, I love their language because is very difficult to learned and for this is a challenge for me. Second, I like their landscape because this country has a magnificent scenary as much in the field with their tulip field and mill and in the city with their bridges over the water and their parks and buildings.  And third, since I was a girl I love this country for their beauty, because when I have eight years old my father collected stamp and his show me the Netherland stamp and their show the beauty of this country and since this moment I love Netherland. I would like go to Netherlands for continue to study a other career like pedagogy or international studies, because I want to know other cultures, especially the Netherlands culture and one of the best ways for know is through the study.
