My Favourite Video Film
Мій улюблений відеофільм – “Титаник”. Він розповідає історію знаменитого корабля “Титаник”, який затонув у 1912 році. Це було колосальних розмірів судно навіть за сучасними мірками.
Його трагічну загибель будуть пам’ятати завжди: корабель затонув під час першого плавання, забравши із собою величезну кількість людських життів. Режисер фільму – Джеймс Камерон.
Головні ролі виконують молоді актори Леонардо Ді Капріо і Кейт Уїнслет. По-моєму, вони грають чудово. Зйомки теж першокласні. Я чула, що для цього фільму була виготовлена
Це дуже видовищний фільм. Це зворушлива історія любові. Усім своїм друзям я раджу подивитися “Титаник”.
Фільм одержав 11 “Оскарів”, і я упевнена, він усі їх заслуговує.
My favourite video film is “Titanic”. It tells the story of a famous ship, the “Titanic”, which sank in 1912. The “Titanic” was a colossal ship even by modern standards. Its tragic sinking will always be remembered, for the ship went down on the first voyage with heavy losses.
The director of the film is James Cameron. The main parts in the film are played by young actors Leonardo Di Caprio and Kate Winslet. To my mind their acting is superb.
The camerawork is fantastic, too. I’ve heard that they made a full-size model of the “Titanic” for this film. It’s a very spectacular film. It is also a moving love-story.
The film was awarded 11 Oscars and I’m sure it deserves every one of them.
