And she want him to introduce her to his family so that she will go to Fiji with him. Drew doesn't want to do that so he have to spend his X'mas alone. He doesn't want to spend X'mas alone so he ask his friend about this. His friend tell him that has to write down the grievances on paper and burn it outside of the home of his birth to help him with loneliness issues. He follow his friend advice. While he is burning his grievances Tom Valco, owner of the house, hit on his head and he become unconscious. When he wake up, Drew tell about his problem to Valcos. He want to stay at Valcos' house. He tall that he want to rent Valcos' house during the X'mas. He give them $250000 to be his family for X'mas to the Valcos for services render on X'mas. The Valco family will aid Drew in recapturing those chilhood X'mas memories. Actually trouble is brewing in the Valco family, Tom and Chistine are in bad marriage time. Tom begins his memory by: buying a Chirtmas tree, dress-up, house decoration, snow fighting, etc. He does everything that suppose to be in X'mas time. But the Valcos seem unhappy about that especially Alicia, daughter. He like with Alicia. One day, Mizzy call Drew and tell that her family is going to see Drew at his house. So, the Valcos has to play as a real family with Drew which he will pay more $75000 to them. While they're touring the house, they have some problem with Drew so he has to go out from Valco House. In reality, Drew's memories about X'mas is just stay in house or in the coffee shop that his mother is working until 18 years old, his mother died. Tom come to his apartment and go to the theater with him. At the theater he met the Valcos and celebrate Chritmas with them.

The main character is Drew, he is busy hard working man. He doesn't have much of his Christmas memories.
From the movie, I think that there will be people like Drew for sure. People who have to stay alone in Chrismas or forget what is Christmas. The movie showed me that people in US are really care about the X'mas. They spend time together and they usually don't want to stay alone in Chritmas but if they do, it'll be very sad. I can see that Christmas Cultures are almost same in most of the countries,like Chirstmas Tree, house decoration, red dress, Mr. Santa Claus, family together, exchange gifts,etc. I think this movie is get me understand more of X'mas and it better more my previous picture "White X'mas". I like Christmas.

White X'mas

It begin the story with solidiers celebrate the x'mas in war. And the soldier become a famous duo singer.
I couldn't finish this movie because I don't get what the movie is after I watch it around 20 minutes. Most of the movie is about singing a song so it kind of confuse for me (-,-!). Sorry to say. But I get something for this movie after I watch for short time that is people sing a song on X'Mas day and the soldiers sad b'coz they couldn't celebrate the x'mas with family. I 'll watch "Christmas Survive" instead of this movie.

Son of Paleface

Porter Paleface Jr. graduate from Harvard University. His girlfriend tell him to get the fortune of his father. His father is Porter Paleface, who won the west. Porter kill Indians for gold. The indians hate him. At that time, "The Torch" ,a robber gang, is needed by the government. This gang is live in the town that Porter Jr. are going to. Mr.Roy,federal man who try to catch The Torch, is disguise himself as a cowboy singer. He come to the town to help the sheriff catch The Torch. Porter reach the town and relized that his father was left 2 things for him: debts and fortune case. He wish that in the case will full of gold, but it was emtry. But he had to pretend that it's a gold inside. He fall in love with Mike, the head of The Torch, but he didn't realize b'coz she was disguise herself as a club singer. In the other hand, Indians know that son of Paleface come to the town and has a gold. They want to kill Jr. and take the gold back. As the same time Mike want his gold too. She pretend that she is going to marry him. But Jr. has to find his father's gold, he get some help from Eff, an oldman. People know that there is no gold so they try to hurt Jr. By accidentially Jr. and Eff find the hidden map of gold. They headed to the direction. Mike and Indians hand together to kill Jr. But Mike was betray by her gang and want to help Jr. and Mr.Roy. They found that the gold was hide in deer horn. But they have to run away from the indians. Finally, everyboby was saved and Mike know her heart that she love Jr. But she has to be in jail but after she came out. She had kids with Jr.

The main character of this movie is Jr. He is crazy with his Harvard University. Everythings he wear has name of Harvard. I think he is funny when he dressed up with the logo of Harvard.
I watch this movie for second time b'coz, the first time I really don't get what is the movie is. But my second time I enjoy with this movie b'coz the movie had lots of old kind of special effect techniques.This movie showed me that the indians are very angry with what the white people do to them.

Butch Cassidy & Sundance Kid

Butch Cassidy(real name Robert LeRoy Parker) is a clever man,he used to be the robbery planner. Sundance Kid(real name Harry Longabaugh) is a skillful gunman. Their gang named "Hole in the Wall Gang" which very famous. They robbed the money from the Union Pacific Railroad. So the owner of Union Pacific Railroad hired the professional people to detect them. Butch and Sundance run away for the detective team from along time but it's very difficult because one in the was an indian man. He is very good in detect people. So they decide to stop robbery and go to Bolivia which Butch think that Bolivia is like California. When they reach Bolivia, it is totally different from their immagination. There is nothing in Bolivia. However, banks in Bolivia has no security system so they decide to rob again. They robbed many bank in Bolivia and they become most wanted robbers in Bolivia. One day, they robbed the people in mountain and take their horses and come to the town. People in the town can recognize at the sign hourse hips and tell the police. Butch and Sundance fight with a hundred of policemen. Finally, Butch and Sundance died.

The main characters are Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid. They are very handsome speciall Robert Redford as Sundance. He make me fun with the movie.

From this movie I know something that cowboy didn't have sense of detective as good as indians. And I wonder why cowboy don't like to take a shower. And they love freedom very much as you can see from the Sundance, he let go his girlfriend and stay in Balivia with Butch to do their jobs. Also, bicycle was introduced in this movie period. Bicycle recognized as thing for future. I really like this movie.

Dances with Wolves

the story is about the us soldier, Dunbar, accidentally he was a hero in battle. So he got rewards that was a house and the permission to choose the force place everywhere he wanted to be. He chose to be in western frontier,Fort Shedwick, the far away place. He was lead by a man but after sent Dunbar, that man was killed by Pawnee. When he arrived there was no one, many day passed,there still no one. He met only a wolf name Two socks. One day he met a white girl, her body full of blood. She afraid of Dunbar so the faded. Dunbar took her back to Sioux village. Sioux was angry with Dunbar. Later Dunbar was accept to Sioux because he is good person and Sioux' leader want to talk with Dunbar.
Then the good relationship began, he learned about the Sioux language his first word is the buffalo. He was named in Sioux language "Dances with Wolves" because the indians saw him played with Two Socks. Dundar told about the direction of buffalo and helped Sioux to fight with Pawnee. He married to a Sioux girl that he helped her. One day while he come back to his house at frontier to take his diary. He met soldiers and they shot his horse. It died right away and he was take to the jail. Then, the indians helps him out. Finally, he decided not to stay with Indians because the indians will be in danger b'coz of him.
The main character is Dunbar, US soldier, he is open-minded. He's open to Indians culture. He is a really man. Also, I think his horse is main character b'coz it's very clever. Additionally, a wolf, Two Socks b'coz it's lead the name of Dances With Wolves.

From this movies it tell me something more about Sioux Indians, they were great hourse culture of the plains. They worships their God by dancing. They will kill the buffalo only the number the sufficient for them. Indians was not cruel like what I think. But they are cruel b'coz of white people. For the Indians that I think they cruel is Pownee b'coz they take the flash out of the human body after they killed them. Overall, I think this movie is fun to watch but it's very long. (*!*)
