Turkey where the dream begins

One of Turkey’ most famous sights is Cappadocia, which has unique distinctly spotted rock. It was named “One of the most beauty places in the world” by China Scenic. A lot of impressive sights from the movie Star War were taken in Cappadocia, where tourists are encouraged to explore. Cappadocia lies in central Anatolia. Due to its inland location and high altitude, Cappadocia has a markedly continental climate, with hot dry summers and cold snowy winters. In addition, hot air balloon is the most attractive way to explore the scenery. Every year many young people come here. They can look over Cappadocia and enjoy the nature. When they feel tired, they can check into the cave hotel, which is also a feature in Cappadocia. In the future, I believe that Cappadocia will become better and better, and create more interesting scenery for travellers to enjoy.

Starring: Natalie Portman (娜塔莉 波特曼)
                  Mila Kunis (
米拉 庫妮絲)

Type: feature film    thriller

Length: 103 minutes

Characteristics: A reflection of real life that people are under very great pressure. Ballet as the theme makes this movie more aesthetic. Natalie Portman won the 83rd Oscar best actress and Mila Kunis was also nominated the 83rd Oscar best supporting actress. This movie won the 83rd Oscar best movie.

Recommendation: ☆☆☆☆☆

Plots and feelings:This movie demonstrates the process of a ballet dancer who was a docile girl trying hard to become a very powerful main casting, the black and white swan. Nina was a very sweet, innocent girl and perfect for playing the white swan. Nevertheless, the dancing director Thomas needed an excellent dancer who can play both the white and black swan. Nina was chosen to be the one, but she still needed to exploit her potential black side. Nina admired the pre-dancer Beth and desired to be perfect as she was. She worked pretty hard to be able to display this casting excellent and put every effort into revealing her potential ability. She was under huge pressure. Her mother once failed to achieve her dancing dream because she had to give birth to Nina. Consequently, she was very strict and pushed Nina to realize the dream. What’s more, the competition in the dance regiment was very drastic, and Lily was another good candidate who is well-suited to play the black swan. A strange friendship connected these 2 people and also promoted Nina to explore her own black side. On the other hand, Thomas pushed Nina and allured her to expose her to the dark. In the end, Nina displayed the casting perfectly, but she also paid the price. When she jumped down at the end of the performance, Nina was injured, but she also felt perfection deeply. This movie reflects the change of a person who is severely stressful. Everyone has one moment under enormous pressure, but everyone’s solution is diverse. After we are out of the plight, we will translate into new ones. We have different definitions of perfection, and we all try to be perfect. Nonetheless, the process is hard, but we will succeed if we insist. This movie is also a psychological movie. The combination of real and illusion vividly displays the process of translation in detail.

The song is written by Westlife, and it was released in 2005. The song is about many people working in some places which are far from their homes. The gentle melody and impressive lyrics bring us into a very cozy and lovely world. Furthermore, this song encourages us a lot when we are depressed. Nowadays, innumerous students study in foreign countries. Being outside alone, they will be very lonely and miss their relatives and friends. Nonetheless, they need to be strong and get over many difficulties. When they come back home, they will realize that it’s not a big deal, and they have grown up.
