Without any spoilers. The movie deals with the problem of never aging, letting go of fears and secret, allowing oneself to learn how to trust and love again. And of course discovering an old secret that will change lives.

Enjoy watching and until next time loves!

So there are four movies I particularly enjoyed watching a lot. One of them just cam out which is "Experience never gets old" I watched it just last sunday and I loved it. It was a funny yet truthful movie which main topic is about love and trust. Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro both play heavenly in my opinion and there is a real connection that touches the viewer.

"Longest Ride", I read the book which meant that I had to watch the movie. The book was a great one, I adored it and I smiled and cried and it was wonderful. So I did not have that many great expectation about the movie. However, they somehow made it to base the story on the book but made it its own movie as well. It's mainly based on the book and some scenes are cut together but the context and important details do not get lost which is why I loved it. The story is just wonderful! 

"Stil Alice" is a drama movie. It deals wight the serious topic of Alzheimers decease and I am always for those movies because they show real existing struggles of life which is important because we seem to block them out of our mind and act surprised if we might get it as well. However, Moore plays wonderful and she deserved the Oscar for this role. I like that the movie shows all the details and we get to know the desease the way it it with all it's ugly stages. I am thinking about giving this to my mother as she loves those movies as well.

"Cinderella" I believe I do not have much to tell you about this. The movie is based on the Disney version and wonderful, magical and a proper family movie. I love it because it makes me feel like the 5 year old girl I once was with no concerns and troubles believing in my prince that would come someday. Very well played by all the actors and very cute! 

Audio Book

I am not a slow reader. i am a passionate one but I literally do not have time with school and life. So I have found a way here as well to still get my fair share of literature in my life that I so strive for. Audio books. I listen to them as much as I can, while working out, cooking, meal prepping, homework, getting ready, etc.. So now, I will share some of the books I listened to and find great.

"Grey" is the male version of 50 Shades of Grey where Christian tells the story from his side and I find it even more shameful (if old people knew what I listened to.. :D ) But it's great because you get to know more about his mysterious character, his thinking, feeling. It's great.

Another book from Lucinda Riley as she is my favorite author. "The Seven Sisters" is a seven book range all coming out in the rolling years, this is book one, "Storm Sisters" is going to be released in november this year. It's based on the greek mystery of the seven sister (stars) and each books deals with the lives story of the characters that are adopted sisters. 

The book is build like all her others, the character gets to know about the past throughout the story of some mysterious family member they find. This book takes the reader to brazil.

"Always the Bridesmaid" by Lindsey Kelk is a very, very funny comedy book I enjoy listening to when cooking. The way she puts together the words in this funny context is worth dying for. I laughed very much. It is a romantic fiction novel and a lovely one for that. It is considered to be her best book just yet and I think it is as I read all her others as well. It's about a girl struggling her love life and job life whilst organizing her best friends wedding. Lovely story.

"Er is wieder da" translated to "He's back" is a satire novel by a german author. It critics today political happenings by comparing it to the old regime of "Hitlers" time in a very, very funny way. This is all I am going to say about it because if you are interested in it you will pick it up. The movie is coming out next week, I am going to watch it and I love it because there is some truth about it. Plus it's funny. I gave it birthday presents to almost everyone in the last two years and people found it great as well. 

This does not mean that I am a "Nazi" or what so ever. It describes a current political situation that is just not okay and will end terribly if there is not something happening. Anyways, if you want to, read it and be enlightened if not, not. 

I hope you will pick something up of my recommendations and that you liked the post! 

Hello Everyone! 

I am really sorry for not being present in the last week but after New Years we had some complications which have slowly calmed now. 

Anyways, this has given me some time to explore and do some research on some upcoming posts I wanted to write. 

To start of new, I want to introduce a movie to you. It's not known very well and actually just premiered last year in September. 

It is called "Men, Women & Children", written by Chad Kultgen and directed by Jason Reitman.

It is an ensemble comedy- drama starring many known actors like Adam Sandler, Jennifer Garner, Rosemarie DeWitt and many more.

The movie shows our or the characters usage and communication in the new media age and the problems that come with it like an unsatisfied marriage, and overprotective mother, a depressed son or an anorectic daughter who is love sick. 

Even though the movie didn't get a great review and passed by unrecognized I found in an absolutely great movie which did not get the attention. 

It shows an honest and important message about topics people deal with every day because of media which I think is and insanely great thought because who does deal with it?  Who raises some actual attention towards something as important as this is? Nobody really. 

Anyways, this movie is really thoughtful and shows many kinds of real life problems with the additional joke here and there to make the topic in general a bit easier to swallow. Next to the tiny bits of comedy we have the love story as well to make our hearts melt too. 

I find it a great movie as I said before out of the reasons I named above. I hope I could raise you attention and make you curious or just gave you a movie to watch. 

I put the trailer here as well so you can make up a first thought.

                                                                                                                      

Sorry for not posting for quite a while but I just needed some time off. Nevertheless this is just the beginning for 2015 and many more posts! 

I wish you all a great day and talk to you guys soon.

Hello everyone! 

Wednesday was really good actually. I thought it was going to be a really hard day but turns out it wasn't. But before I will introduce another movie to you I show you my outfit of the day. 

I basically only wore my short leather pants and my try cody jumper both H&M again. 

I straightened my hair and somehow put it up pulling out some hair on the side to make it a bit more loose. Oh and I wore the manhattan lip lacquer in that really red colour and I really like it! 

What I actually wanted to show you though is this lovely movie. It is french again but it doesn't matter. It's called "Ma première foie" which can be translated to "My first Time" but we wanna think of it as "My first time being in love" kind of way. 

It is a teen drama love story. What I like about it, is that we get to see a bit of french lifestyle and culture, not too much, just a glimpse. And that we have the unexpected on our side such as that the movie is about love there is of course the one and other problem we always see in comedies, that something won't work because of family, work, private life etc, but here they overcome these said obstacles but still the movie finishes in a way I would never have guessed and even though it's sad, I am happy with the ending. Which is why I would recommend this movie to everyone! Also it's about making choices in life which also is something we have to consider doing ourselves.

Shortly, the film is about two teenagers who are about to make their A- levels. She is nerdy and a good girl who was brought up in a homely house and structured life, he a good looking, modeling bad guy with family problems. They meet at boarding school and of course hate each other because of their obvious differences. Somehow they fall in love and get to know each other better. They plan their lives and it's a beautiful love story. As I said the end is unexpected as we wonder what could go wrong if it's not her going away to Amerika or him wanting to make career or family? Well, I won't tell you how it ends but I will tell you to watch it and find out! 

You can download or lend it on iTunes.

I really hope I caught your attention on this film and that you had as much of a good day as I had!

I remember an episode from when I was 12 or 13 I think and I was watching a movie about a girl who's dream it was to become not just one but the best stewardess. It was about how she learned to be one and overcame the obstacle of being tricked by her friend and chose the right thing to do in order to fall in love as well. 

Back then I thought it was so amazing how ambitious this woman was and it somehow had the power to make me want to be just as like. 

Though I never recognized the actress (shame) and also didn't catch the name of the movie until last week as I went to buy a movie with my best friend for his Dad I saw this one and instantly knew this was it. 

Of course the actress was and is Gwyneth Paltrow and many other known actors/ actresses. Still I bought it quickly just to get the same feeling or at least to feel like that 12-13 year old amazed girl again. 

And well, even thought I think it's all a bit too easy compared to the romantic comedies produced later on and I don't find the acting as good as on the romantic comedies produced later on.. it did make me feel the way I remembered. 

I have a weird habit of letting movies play in the background whilst I am doing something and anything else and this is a perfect movie to listen to in the background. It makes me get things done. 

I wanted to let you all know that and still it's a really nice movie to watch on an evening with nothing else planned :)
