I have to talk about movies today, I’m kind of used to talk about them…so, here we go again.

First of all, I could never tell what my favourite movie is, there are too many movies that mean something for me. There’s like thirty movies in my top five and it’s never the same. It changes a lot.

So I’m going to talk about one that it’s very special to me, even dough that I never considered one of my favourites until a remembered it the other day.

I watched it about a year ago, It’s called “Mary and Max” it’s an animated movie, done with an animation technique called ‘Stop Motion’. The plot is about a little girl, Mary, who lives in Australia and doesn’t have any friends or brothers, that one day opens New York’s address book in the post office, chooses a random address and sends a letter asking for a friend. The guy that receives the letter is a 40 year old man, Max, who is very lonely also, obese and has Aspergers Syndrome, so he doesn’t know how to be around people or behave with them.

It’s sounds very sad really, but it’s not like that, actually is a very funny and sweet film, the best is the script and the animation, it is a work of art seeing the characters move.

I think it’s because of how the story develops that is overwhelming how they learn to love each other just by communicating through their letters. And at the end, they only have each other.
Actually, I lied, it is very sad and I cried very hard at the end.

If you are reading this, who ever you are, please watch that movie.
For movies like this one, the art of cinematography was made.
