Speaking exercise

My favorite movie is The Perfect World. I like it because the actor is different with other people. He is a prisoner, then he escape from the prison and he catch a boy from his mother. His mother and father is broken up, and the boy’s mother always forbidden the boy to do some thing like to celebrate Halloween. The prisoner took away the boy and they always on the road. They running away, in this travel the prisoner take the boy to celebrate Halloween and the boy feel most happy in his life. The policeman was driving the car to catch them, they catch him to save boy. The prisoner has a bad terrible childhood so he didn’t have father so when they took this boy this man acted like the boys father. It is very touching, because this man he is a prisoner but he is kinder than other people. He has soft heart and he looks very fierce but he is not like his look.

My favorite movie is The Perfect World. I like it because the role/character that the actor is  playing is different from other people. He is a prisoner, then he managed to escape from the prison by faking another person’s identity. After escaping, he kidnapped a boy from his mother. His mother and father is divorced, and the boy’s mother always forbid him from celebrating festive occasion like Halloween. The prisoner took  the boy away and they always on the run, trying to runaway from police. During their run away, the prisoner took/brought the boy to celebrate Halloween and  for the boy it was the happiest moment for him. The policeman was driving the car to catch them, they want to catch him in order to save boy. The prisoner had a terrible childhood, as he grew up without a father. So when they took the boy, this man acted like the boy’s father. The story is very touching, because this man he is a prisoner but he is kinder than other people. He has a soft heart. He looks very fierce but his personality is the total opposite.
