a month.

M5: I go, normally, probably once every month or two months, but it
depends on the film.

Wednesday because we get ‘buy one get one free’ cinema tickets, so I
can take a friend with me.

was great. How about you? What was the last film you saw?

Trek, I think, Star Trek 5, I think it was.

been to India a couple of times and do a bit of travelling and thought it
was very realistic, and brought back the memories of India.

M5: Last film was James Bond film, Quantum of Solace. It wasn’t as good
as the first version of the film that this was a sequel to, but it was still
very good.

Martin Scorsese and the acting was just absolutely fantastic in it.

F: What kinds of films do you like?

W1: I always like romantic comedies. Slumdog Millionaire was a great

movie. Australia was a movie I saw recently which was really good.

M1: I’d probably recommend the new Terminator movie. That’s once again
filled with action, very exciting.

M5: I like old films. I’ve a complete collection of John Wayne and Charlton
Heston. And musicals, anything that’s quite happy or adventurous -
takes me away from real life, those are the ones that I watch.

W2: I saw The Proposal not too long ago and I really liked it, it was really
interesting, it was a really funny, romantic comedy.

M3: Sweeney Todd I really enjoyed with Johnny Depp - simply because he
was fantastic and Helena Bonham Carter, one of my favourite
actresses, was also really good.

M4: I’d recommend The Graduate. I enjoyed that as a young man and
growing up as well. I think it’s a ‘coming of age’ film.

M6: My favourite film is called Goldeneye. It’s a James Bond film and I think
the action scenes are just absolutely fantastic in it.

F: Who’s your favourite actor?

M5: John Wayne’s my favourite actor.

M6: My favourite actor is the new James Bond, Daniel Craig. I think he’s
very good at showing emotions in his films. My favourite actress is
called Angelina Jolie. She’s very beautiful, but she’s also played lots of
different roles in films.

M3: My favourite actor is Johnny Depp because I think he’s funny and I
think he’s lively and he always has energy on stage.

W2: My favourite actor is Brad Pitt. He’s very good looking and he can play
many different roles and he’s very talented.

M4: My favourite film star’s Robert De Niro because I look like him.
