"Living is easy with eyes closed."

What a sweet film. It's about a nerdy English teacher in Spain in the early 60s who worships the Beatles. He finds out that John Lennon is shooting a movie in Spain and goes on on a trek to meet him. On his way, he picks up a couple hitch-hikers and the story enfolds. It's such an enjoyable movie. And the actors are all wonderful.

"Eva"

An excellent movie for sci-fi buffs. It's different indeed. Alex returns to his hometown after 10 years to be part of a project to make robots with human emotion. He left years ago in the middle of a project working with his brother and future sister-in-law. When he meets his precocious niece, he decides to model the robot after her. I'll say no more. It's a wonderful movie. And I have to say, the young actress, Claudia Vega was absolutely amazing. Don't miss this one.
