Writing exercise

Last weekend I watched a movie called the addams family. Even the old movie from 1991 still surprises me,because the quality of the film is very different now ,so I haven’t seen such an interesting film for a long time.
I like these strange families very much:a clever hand,a big dumb butler,Loving parents,a witch grandmather,lovely brother and sister,lovely uncle and lots of interesting coster.
The film tells the story of Adams family living in a Victoria ruins, as noble and decent life, and the family is not a monster, they are just more happy, there is a cellar in the villa enough gold for them to enjoy life, but a greedy lawyer wants to set up a trap to take their money away.
Although the dark humor of gothic movies is different from normal thoughts, it brings us the same happiness as funny movies.
