I love trumpet very much. I had played it since I was fifteen years old. I was belonged a brass band club when I was high school student. In this university, I belong to a classical orchestra. In both of groups, I enjoyed playing. Now, I pause to play it because I concentrate to study. I decided I will play it after I graduate this university. I can never abandon the goals that improve my skill of playing the trumpet. Non-trumpet life is stressful, but now I must fight English.

1st Episode of a Foreign TV Drama

The foreign TV drama I watched is “Revenge”. The tittle of first episode is “Pilot”. It’s a mystery drama. The first season started in the U.S. from September 2011, and the other season was broadcast until recently.

 

The first seen begins with the heroine speaking to the audience. She tells that she was taught not to take revenge if something bad was done to you, and this is not a story of forgiveness but a story of revenge.

The next scene is at a party place on the seaside. It is the engagement party of the heroine, but she doesn’t enjoy herself and seems to be plotting something. Her mother-in-law makes a speech and asks her secretly, “Where is my son?” Then, “Mom! Mom! My brother! Come, someone! “, her daughter cries. He seems to have been killed by someone.

 

After this was seen, it is a flashback to five months ago. The name of heroine is Emily. She comes to Hamptons. She notices that she came here with her father. She hears about the Grayson family which is a famous millionaire family that lives in the next mansion, and they decide to rent the house.

 

On moving day, her friend Ashley visits her house. She is an employee of the Grayson family, and invites Emily to a party. If she can’t sell the tickets, she will be dismissed. Emily answers at once that she will participate.

Jack is a person whose father manages a pub. He prepares to go to Haiti on his ship “Amanda” with his brother. Then, a man called “Nolan” comes to him, and he says he wants the ship. Jack answers he can’t sell the ship. Nolan says “Do you cherish Amanda so much?” teasingly.

On the other hand, at the Grayson’s, the meeting about the party is held by Ms. Grayson and the employees. Ms. Grayson’s name is Victoria. She plans to auction a picture she has. Her best friend Lydia ironically suggests to choose the picture she and her ex-husband presented to the Grayson family because she just got divorced. Victoria says she will never sell the picture, and comforts Lydia.

Emily goes to the beach, and remembers the memory of her father of here. Then, Lydia comes to her, and tells her that she is owner of the house where Emily lives. After she comes home, she watches a news image of the trial which her father was charged with a false accusation. His secretary takes down the testimonies, which are lies, and demonizes him. She is Lydia Davis!

 

The day before the party day, Daniel, who is son of Mrs. Grayson, goes home, Victoria and his sister whose name is Charlotte, are glad. He heard his father whose name is Conrad is going to play golf. In fact, Conrad is in a hotel with Lydia. Suddenly, he feels

nausea, and is taken to out of the hotel. Emily meets Lydia there, but Lydia escapes, and Emily notices the man is Mr. Grayson.

When Jack teaches his brother whose name is Declan to work in the pub, a banker visits their father and Charlotte and her celebrity friends also come. Declan falls in love at first sight with Charlotte. After that, Jack plays with his dog at a park. When Emily walks near the park, his dog hugs her. Jack apologizes to her. He also falls in love at first sight, but she leaves directly.

Victoria worries about her husband and comes to the hospital, and she knows Conrad did not go to play golf but went to the hotel. She warns him not to let it happen again.

 

The party starts, Emily goes around with Ashley, and is introduced to some people. Emily greets Victoria through Ashley, and calls for Lydia who is near them. Lydia was avoiding Victoria. Emily purposely tells Lydia in front of Victoria that they met out of the hotel yesterday and asks if his physical condition got better or not. Victoria stiffens, and leaves there. Next, Emily approaches Daniel by spilling her cocktail.

In the pub, the farewell party of Jack is held. Then, the banker visits again, he begins to talk with Jack’s father. Jack knows his father is in debt. He worries, and looks at his ship.

The result announcement of the auction starts, Victoria chooses Lydia as the successful bidder. Furthermore, the painting is the thing Lydia presented. Victoria also ironically announces Lydia will leave Hamptons and says to remember our friendship when she sees the painting. Lydia quietly leaves there.

After the party, Nolan watches the images of today while ridiculing the celebs. Then, he receives a call from Jack, and is told to bring the check if Nolan wants to buy the ship. Nolan directly answers OK. Meanwhile, he finds Emily in the image, and visits her house. “Welcome back, Amanda”, he says. Emily angrily grabs his neck, and he says to stop. He says he will help your revenge, but she refuses resolutely. She says she won’t talk to him if he disturbs her. He says she is scary after turning him into an enemy, and told her that he met Jack and Jack has regret about Amanda Clark. She says Amanda does not exist yet.

The first time Emily met Nolan is the time when she was released from prison, she was friend of Nolan, and had invested in Nolan’s company. Nolan delivered the key of the safe and her father’s will. Her father tells her to have a heart of forgiveness about this.

 

At the last scene, the heroine also speaks to audiences. “I couldn’t keep his promise. If we are deprived someone you love, only the feeling of revenge would remain.” On the other hand, Victoria puts her eyes on Emily, and lets someone to research her.

BR:1-10 Leonardo DiCaprio

"Leonardo DiCaprio is a happy young man. Every young actor would like his job."
(Brent, 1998, p.15)

This is the word the author said near the end of this story. It said that he is enjoying his own work. A lot of girls like not only him on movies, but also his personality.

My most favorite movie is Titanic. Since I watch the movie, I have liked him. I saw the movie many times, but don't get tired. Titanic isn't only the story of a famous boat. It's a love story too. He made the story more romantic, and many people love Jack even now.
