SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER : Stayin' Alive



Can you imagine dancing like Tony Manero? It's fair to point that over the years we find several examples of amazing and reference dancers,from Fred Astaire to Billy Elliot,or Alex Owens in Flashdance among others.For all of us,Dancing like us is totally unimaginable,not is it innate but it is also great dedication.However,the charisma of Tony Manero is on the top of the iceberg.

Saturday Night Fever is an American dance film.It was directed by John Badham.The strong point of this film is clearly John Travolta.The well-known actor shows his best version,which gave the opportunity to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actor.I must make clear that its disco songs,arranged by Bee Gees,is considered one of most best soundtracks of all time.Six years later,there was a sequel,but it hadn't the same success despite John Travolta.Last but not least,the story is based on an article,which showed the disco lifestyle.

Anthony 'Tony' Manero (John Travolta) is a working-class young man who still lives with his parents.Malero spend his weekings in a famous pub,Odisea 2001.There,Tony to be thought of as the king of the dance floor,but he wants to make a name for oneself.Tony has a group of friends :Joey,Double J,Gus,Bobby C,and overall,Stephanie Mangano (Karen Lynn Gorney) who is Tony's dance partner.All things changed when they decide to sign up to a well-known competition.The film elapses among racial tensions,squabbling parents and Manero's routine life.However,this situation could change with this competition and his dream to make his mark in the world of dance.

Overall,Saturday Night Fewer is an amazing depiction of how could be the stuggle of a professional dancer.I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie.As I mentioned before,its soundtrack and Bee Gees are absolutely unforgettable .To sum up,for all lovers of John Travolta is a must.

THE KARATE KID : Was on,was




Are you a competitive person? Many people claim that you want to achieve your dreams,not only is it essential to be competitive,but also go through to get them.The famous sentence 'no pain,no gain' proves that.Yet,from my point of view,it's better take it easy and,mainly,never give up.I can't help saying that The Karate Kid is a perfectly example of constancy and overcome the adversities.So,Daniel LaRuso,trains and works inferiority conditions with respect to other guys.

The Karate Kid is an American martial arts film.It was directed by John G.Avildsen in 1984.The strenght of this film is its cast,Ralph Macchio,Pat Morita and Elisabeth Sue,without any doubts whatsoever.According to opinions,petitioned strongly for Morita-s inclusion and once the film released,it had a commercial success and positive critics.This amazing film is the first one of the sequels,after this success film,we can get Karate Kid II (1986),Karate Kid III (1989),The next Karate Kid (1994) and the last one was a remake with the same name and it was interpreted by Jackie Chang and Jaden Smith (Will Smith's son) in 2010.Nowadays,we can watch on Youtube channel and later on Netflix a Tv series which is based on Karate kid,30 years later and its famous gym.It is interpreted by Ralph Macchio and William Zabka

Daniel LaRusso (interpreted by Ralph Macchio) and his mother move from New Jersey to Los Angeles.Daniel is really discontent with this fact due to he leaves behind all his life.The owner of his rent apartment is an Asian eccentric named Mr.Miyagi who cares of bonsais but overall he is a martial arts expert.In high school,Daniel suffers bullying from a group of arrogant students,captained by Johnny Lawrence,a black belt and the top student from the 'Cobra Kai' dojo, given that Daniel starts a new relationship with Ali Mills (Elisabeth Sue) which draws the attention of Lawrence.On Halloween,Daniel goes through an unfortunate incident with Cobra Kai band.So,when an injured Daniel arrives home,Miyagi sees him.After this situation,Miyagi decides to help him to revenge,but in a fair play way....in the All.Valley Karate Championships.However,Miyagi's training are not the typical that Daniel thinks beforehand. 

I love The Karate Kid because the plot is so gripping that absorbs you in a fastinainting world of martial arts from the beginning to the end.Apart from that,this film is a reference to 80s movies,but rather its soundtrack and its famous phrases are considered deathless.For these reasons,I would  highly recommend this film to passionate of these genders.The final scene in the competition is simply great and its soundtrack,'You're the best',is amazing
....First learn stand,then learn fly.Nature rule Daniel Son,not mine.
