映画批評から英語を知るのもあり。楽しまなければ英語は身に付かない。 I am not a native speaker of English. In order to improve my English ability,I would like to continue learing English every day. I am sure that the best way not to give up learning English is to enjoy it. I like movies, so learning English through movie-related documents is a suitable option for me. Reading and understanding a lot of the movie documents written by a native is a good way,I think. I would like to be able to write my reviews on movies fluently.

ジュリアロバーツ(Julia Fiona Roberts)が好演した映画エリンブロコビッチ(Erin Brockovich)で英語を楽しむ
This film is based on the true story of a woman named Erin Brockovich, who together with Ed Masry uncovered a major cover up of a health hazard resulting in one of the largest settlements in history. This film is extremely well done, dividing its time between Erin the worker, Erin the single-mom trying her best to raise her three kids, and Erin the human being.
Roberts received countless amounts of praise for her performance including a much deserved Oscar.
Academy Award nominations for Supporting Actor, Screenplay, Director and Best Picture speak for themselves in declaring just how impressive this film really is.
Transcript of the above scene
Erin.
How's it going?
You never called me back.
I left messages.
You did? well I didn't know that.
Donald seems to think that you said--
There's two things that aggravate me mr masry.
being ignored and being lied to.
-I never lied.
-You told me things'd be fine.
They're not. I trusted you.
-I'm sorry about that,really,am,
-I don't need pity.
I need a paycheck.
And I've looked.
but When you spent the past six years raising babies,
it's real hard to get a job that pays worth a damn.
Are you getting every word of this down, honey?
Or am I talking too fast for you?
I am sorry about that, but really am .
But we have a full staff right now so--
Bullshit. If you had a full staff,
Office'd return a client's damn phones calls.
now I'm smart and hard-working.and I will do anything,
I'm not leaving here without a job.
Don't make me beg.
If it doesn't work out, fire me.
Don't make me beg.
No benefits.
