THE GOONIES : Where is the 'One-Eyed' Willy treasure?


.

It's difficult to look back on my childhood with some elements of nostalgia (this sentence is dedicated by my friend Antonio) I remember when I used to play with my friends make up adventures about treasures or mysteries.So,I'm sure if you watch Goonies for the first time,you'll remember these memories.Have you ever been a Goonie?

This blockbuster is an American adventure comedy produced (as could not be otherwise) by Steven Spielberg,and directed by Richard Donner.It was in 1985 and when Warner Bros released it,Goonies had a meteoric success as a consequence it grossed $61.5 million worldwide.What's more,it is considered a cult film.And last but not least,there are some curiosities about this amazing film,like its pirate ship was real,the soundtrack 'Eight Arms to Hold You' was not a success an that time however not it is not a really valuable,apart from games or Tv series (for instance 'Stranger things') which were influenced by Goonies.

In Astoria (Oregon),in a small seaside village in EEUU,live peacefully a group of teenagers (Mikey,Brand,Chunk,Mouth,Andy,Stef and Data),in a neigbourhood.However,one day their parents received a letter which tells about evictions their house owing to their debts.Some days later,this gang find a map of the treasure and they decide to looking for this treasure in order to pay these overwhelming payments.This amazing adventure not only is amazing but it is also dangerous due to the difficult and a ganster family (Jack,Francis,Sloth and Mama Fratelli) who try to get this treasure too,although Sloth became a Goonie.

Anyway, although the plot is not exactly a complex to understand I recommend you watch the film given that it is an entertaining story that makes you remember about your childhood.In addition, it was way ahead of its time:thinking of evictions and how these teenagers struggle about it at that time was really creative, don't you think ?
..............as Mikey said 'Goonies never say die'
