Matilda

T

There is one thing about my high school days that i can't forget and that was our weekly saturday movie time. I always look forward to saturdays because of that! In case you don't know, i spent my high school days at the Sisters of Mary School, we study, work, pray and play at that compound in Manila for more than three years. We only went home to spend our two weeks vacation with our family yearly. And yes, Our founder Fr. Al, i know will be a saint soon!

Eleven years after and i still can recall the magical film that i so love. I would get a copy every time i see one at a neighborhood video renting shop. I just so love Matilda! So this is my share for Kikamz' Tuesday Couch Potatoes with a Magical theme..

Here's a short summary of this lovable and magical film:
A grouchy couple give birth to a very sweet girl they name Matilda. Unlike her bratty brother & mean parents, Matilda becomes a very sweet & extremely intelligent girl who is very anxious to go to school & read books. After a while, her parents send her to a school with the worst principal in the world, a very sweet teacher, & good friends. While trying to put up with her parent's & principal's cruelty, she starts to unwittingly unleash telekinetic powers that destroy a television & make a reptile fly on the principal. With enough practice, Matilda starts to learn to control her telekinetic powers & soon using them on her principal so she can drive her away from the school. Written by {jcobra3@hotmail.com}
