Watching movies is a popular activity now. It is a good way to relax people's pressure. People laugh, cry, eat or sleep in theaters. I usually watch one or two movies with my parents on the weekend. We watch all kinds of movies. My father likes watching war films. My mother likes to watch sweet family films. I prefer to watch films which have very special themes. My favorite two movies are Big Fish and Little Miss Sunshine.
Many people perhaps haven't watched these two movies before. I will talk a little about their plot. Big Fish is talking about a father who likes to tell stories. He transforms his life experience into fantastic stories and tells his son. The other movie, Miss Little Sunshine, is talking about a family with six people. They are going to participate in a beauty contest called Little Miss Sunshine. On the way to the beauty contest, many things happened.
These two mivies have seveal similarities. Their principal subject is talking about family affection. The Big Fish is describing the relation between father and son. The Little Miss Sunshine is talking about a whole family. The other similar point is both families have many problems. After some events they solve their problems. In Big Fish, son doesn't like his father because he always overstates his experience. His stories are too amazing to make his son to believe. In Little Miss Sunshine every family member has their annoyance. The father's bussiness failed, grandfather takes drugs, uncle commits suicide, son doesn't want to speak for nine months, daughter has big belly.
Both movies are describing their journey. But the Big Fish is describing father's journey and the Little Miss Sunshine is describing whole family's journey. In their journey, Big Fish uses a lot of imagination and color, and make his stories very unusual and colorful. On the other hand, the Little Miss Sunshine doesn't use imagination. It seems that exerything is too real to believe on their trip. Big Fish is just like a fairy tale, contrasting with the real world: a circus troupe, a giant, a witch, a woman with two heads. The events that happened in Little Miss Sunshine are so normal just like you can read in the newspapers everyday. Like car accident, gay issue, beauby contest and divorce.

The movies I like have a common peculiarity which has some meaning. You get strong feeling in the end of movies. The shock is still in my mind when I was walking out of the theater. Good movies make me start thinking about some things. I like the stage dialogue which appear in the end of the Big Fish very much. "A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on him. And in that wat, he becomes immortal." A immortal movie is really worth seeing again and again. If you haven't seen Big Fish and Little Miss Sunshine, I suggest that you can watch them. You will not dispoint.
