A motherlessboy, Billy Elliot, from a mining village, takes up dancing against the wishes of his father and elder brother.Regrettably, the depiction of the working classes of that time is rather stereotypical.The heart of the film, however, is in relationship that Billy strikes up with his dance teacher. Mrs Wilkinson is asoul who finds as much genuine pleasure in the talent and hope of this 11-year-old as she does in the discipline andsupport that she provides for him.B Bend it like BeckhamFootball's uncommon ability to bring a nation together is celebrated in this sweet, positive youth movie. Set inmodern-day London, the film tells the story of Tess, whose two greatest loves in life are David Beckham andkicking a ball about.Unfortunately, her family cling to traditional Asian values, and while they're willing to tolerate her fanaticism thevery idea of their daughter joining a local girls' team makes them angry.Actresses Paraminder Nagra and Keira Knightly both have personalities, but credit should also go to the writer anddirector for getting the balance right between humor and pathos, sporting and romantic action.C Cinema ParadisoA successful movie director in his 40s, Salvatore returns home to Sicily after hearing of the death of Alfredo, the ex-projectionist at the village cinema. Most of the film is a flashback to Salvatore's World War II childhood andadolescence when, obsessed by movies, he is befriended by the wise Alfredo. Their bond is one that contains manyhighlights and tragedies and shapes the way for Salvatore to move out of his run-downvillage to pursue a dream.Wbichfilmorfilms...1. is not set in the UK?2. wasdifficulttofilm?3. is set in the 21st century4. are about young people who have ambitions that their parents don't support?5. is the first film by the director?6. takes place over two different periods of time?
