Autumn Festival

France has a lot of festivals. This country is, as you know, famous for wine, so I introduce to you the famous wine festival in Beaune called LES TROIS GLORIEUSES that means glorious three days in English.

Beaune is a center of Bourgogne and the wine festival is the biggest there. The festival which is held on the third Saturday, Sunday and Monday in every November means that people thank God for wine ageing without incident. So far it is held 147times and many people visit from all over the world.

During this festival, a lot of booths for wine tasting are prepared. You can enjoy wine tasting with cheese and breads if you pay 10euros for wineglass which is substitute for admission ticket. Some wines are valuable and you can drink them only during this festival. Anyway, number of wines is so many, so you go drunk if you drink all wines. And auction is held on Sunday. This is the most canonical in the world. One more highlight of this festival is unique parade. You can see the people wearing folk costumes, funny clowns and so on.

When I go to France, I really want to join this festival because I can experience French culture sufficiently, though I don’t drink wine.

My Favorite Movie

I have watched many movies before at a theater or my house, so I have a lot of favorite movies. Especially, I think PETER PAN is the best movie because you can see cute love story and image is very beautiful, so I’ll introduce this movie. By the way, do you associate the name of PETER PAN with Disney animation? I like this one but I want to introduce to you another one. It is not animation.

Story is, however, almost same. Peter Pan comes to a room where Wendy and her brothers are sleeping and he takes them to Never Land. They meet mermaids, Indian and pirates there. Moreover Peter Pan fights with Captain Hook, dances with Wendy in the night sky and is taught various feelings, such as loneliness and love, by Wendy. In this movie there are a lot of highlights.

Now, I’ll introduce the casts. Peter Pan is played by Jeremy Sumpter. He is the first-ever boy who plays Peter Pan. 'Peter Pan' was a character of the animated cartoon mainly till now. In addition this time becomes really the first time that a boy plays it because a woman played it mainly on a stage. Wendy is played by Rachel Hurd-Wood. She was selected as this position in hundred of people by U.S.A., the U.K. and an Australian audition performed in three places. And Captain Hook is played by Jason Isaacs. He appears to famous movie, Harry Potter, as Lucius Malfoy.
