My Youth Without Youth review



Youth Without Youth is a very gripping movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola, based on a book by Romanian author Mircea Eliade.Tim Roth and Alexandra Maria Lara are starring in the movie.The story is situated in Romania, Switzerland and India.
The story starts when a 70 year old Dominic Matei is struck by lighting in Bukurest where he went to end his life. Doctors thought  Dominic is going to die, but instead of  that his age begins to reverse as his mind grow and he can suddenly  speak many languages.But it even has a dark side.His identity doubled and he can hardly remember his past and cannot differentiate which is true and what´s just a dream.
In my opinion the movie was really gripping from beginning to end.Few moments were scary for me.In this movie ,you never know what will happen next.I don´ usually watch films like this so I had to pay attention through the whole movie because it was easy to get lost in it.Althought I think that the director did a really great job in this film.I also like the acting.All actors were very convincing. Every actor played their role really well.If you want to see something else than a typical predictable Hollywood movie, I recommend you this movie.

Grace Kelly-her biography and why I admire her



 Grace Patricia Kelly was born on November 12, 1929, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She was the third of four children Her personality was enchanting: pleasant kind and shy. At young age Grace decided to became an actress, and to study acting. After her high school in Philadelphia graduation in 1947 she went to New York to try her luck there.
In October 1947, she was admitted to American Academy of Dramatic Arts. To support herself through acting school she got a modeling job. As she started making movies she ended her modeling career and focused on film. She  made  her Broadway debut on November 16, 1949. She continued to work on Broadway until 1950 when she got her first big screen  role in a movie Fourteen Hours.
After Fourteen Hours her career skyrocketed. In the next years she  took roles in lots of movies. For example: High Noon, Mogambo, Dial M for Murder, Green Fire, Rear Window, The Country Girl, and The Bridges at Tokyo-Ri. She recived an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Mogambo, but did not win the award. The Country Girl was the most successful for her: she received the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in the film.  She was one of the highest paid and most respected actresses in the world. In 1955, she was asked to join the United States Delegation at the Cannes Film Festival in France. During a photo shoot, she met Prince Rainier III of Monaco. They got married on April 19, 1956. She ended  her acting career. They had three children: Princess Caroline, Prince Albert, and Princess Stephanie. On September 13, 1982 Princess Grace had a road accident, which caused her death on September 14, 1982. She was 52 years old. After her death Prince was devastated and never got married again.

Grace Kelly is one of the most admired women in the world. People all over the world loved, and admired her. Almost 30 years after her tragic accident most of them still do. She had an amazing career as an actress but when she met Prince Rainer she was not afraid of losing it. She gave up her career and lost everything but she got it back  in her family.  Also she used her status to help other people (she did a lot of charity work). She followed her acting dream and did not gave up. And these are some of the things why I admire her.
She won an Oscar in 1945
