Exam Week Post - A Film you like

One of my favourite movies is Brazil by British director Terry Gilliam. It has a great cast and it's very funny funny. Genre wise, it's a sort of science fantasy comedy. The humour is quite wicked which is most probably why I like it. I first saw this film in 1985 in a cinema called The Rio, an old arts cinema in London that's very like the Normandie. I went with my friend Martin on a Saturday afternoon. A crazy movie that makes me cry with laughter every time I see it.

Tell me about your favourite film.
Say
Who's in it
What's it about
Why you like it.

150 words please and then comment on at least 3 of your classmates' blogs.

Homework: Favourite song

What is your favourite English song at the moment?

Personally, I can't stop listening to "Going home" by British singer Richard Hawley. His sound is very laid back and at times he sounds like Country and Western singer Johnny Cash.
This track starts off like a Velvet Underground song. It's very simple, only 3 or 4 chords and hardly any drums - just a snare somewhere in the background.
The lyrics aren't very original either. One of the verses is a re-write of the old blues song Trouble in Mind by Richard M. Jones (but I LOVE Nina Simone's version).
Nevertheless, I can't stop playing this song.
What about you? What's your favourite English song of the momment?

Tell me about your favourite song at the moment.
