The Green Book

A Film Review by Gabriel, Pablo and Victor Hugo (Class 3C)





THE GREEN BOOK
During the 60’s most of the people in the USA where racist so many black people (called negroes or colored people) were discriminated against. Black people weren’t admitted in some neighborhoods and there were also motels with the name of colored people on them where only black people could sleep.
Characters: Tony Vallelonga, Dr Shirley, Dolores Vallelonga.  The name of the band is Don Shirley band. In the film the protagonist (Tony Vallelonga, also called Tony Lip ) needs a job so he works for a very famous pianist. All was going well but, when he saw that the pianist was black, he instantly changed his mind. Finally he accepted the job and saw that black people were also humans like them so finally, after all the concerts, Tony invited him to share Christmas dinner with him and his family.
Our opinion is that the film was very cool because you can see the 60s from a different point of view. And another reason why the film is so interesting is because of the excellent acting.

Moving On Theatre: a play about BREXIT

BREXIT PLAY by Olivia Singh 1ºA ESO

The play is about Brexit, result of a referendum that took place in Britain two years ago, where people voted to stay or leave the EU. Sadly, 52% of the voters said Yes and 48% said No. The benefits of being part of the EU club is that you can have trade agreements and fre movement of people and goods among the states.
The play tells us a sory about two people and how this event affects them. It also brings real life cases to light were people suffer from this decision, such as sacrificing the freedom of movement like going in or out of the UK. People have to spend hard earned money, time and effort in order to get the permission and British passport to stay in Britain.
The play finished with a happy ending, however the truth is yet to be seen.
