Blog 3: Favorite Movie

This is definitely going to be one of my favorite blogs, I love movies! Watching movies is one of my favorite hobbies and that's why choosing just one is a really complicated task. 

The movie I will choose is  ‘’Sunrise: A song of Two Humans ''  an american film by the German director F. W. Murnau. It's a very old movie (1927), I think not everyone would like it but I really love it. In this movie the actors don’t speak, the information appears in the form of text. Anyway, this movie won three Oscars in the first edition of these awards ! 

It is a romantic film and its protagonists are George O'Brien and Janet Gaynor, a peasant marriage that is happy until Margaret Livingstone, a woman from the city, arrives. O'Brien becomes obsessed with this woman and plans to leave everything to go with her and satisfy his desire. However, he realizes that he really loves his wife, asks for forgiveness and they fall in love again until tragically an accident occurs and he is about to lose her again.

I like this movie because although it is from the silent film era, it manages to convey a very strong message, the story is beautiful and also has a happy ending. I consider it a film with great historical and aesthetic value.
