The film

When I was in secondary school my French teacher took me to a film, which I consider now like one of the best films I have ever seen. Probably because of the matter and the main hero. Since I was a child I have been fond of listening to the songs of Edith Piaf. The film about "La Môme" entitled "Je ne regrette rien" was produced by Olivier Dahan. Here you have an extract:

The film shows her gripping life history, full of big obstacles and miracles, but in general very tragic and difficult. There are also real records of her performances, which improve the authenticity and the value -almost documentary- of the creation. The actress, the details, the composition and the music are really remarkable.
Before watching it I didn't know such a lot number of details about my favourite singer. For me she is an example proving that one must know how to use one's talent to achieve one's goal eventually. She loved singing and that was the simple way to happiness for her.
I recommend  this film to you, it will be good to be prepared for many emotions while watching it, because the movie is incredible,  moving, exciting, inspiring but also entertaining. Enjoy!

FRIENDS

Friends  are important, but not the most important in my life. In difficult situations my family is for me enough. I like the solitude for example with books. Certainly, it wouldn't be true if I say that I don't have friends. Yesterday I went out with a friend of mine, because we share the same leiseure -time interest. I like also write the letters.

When I  think about friends in my mind apear a poem of Adam Mickiewicz: "Przyjaciele", where behind comic forme is an essence of friendship. Friend is someone who is able to help under every circonstances, and even when his own interest is exposed to danger. "We find a real friend in poverty".
I want just add that when I was in mountains with my family, at night, after a trip to "Rysy" there was a bear who followed us, and probably he wanted something wrong -it was a real poverty! Eventually we escaped, but I know the sentiment, which is presented in this story:




PRZYJACIELE
Mickiewicz Adam

Nie masz teraz prawdziwej przyjaźni na świecie;

Ostatni znam jej przykład w oszmiańskim powiecie.

Tam żył Mieszek, kum Leszka, i kum Mieszka Leszek.

Z tych, co to: gdzie ty, tam ja, - co moje, to twoje.

Mówiono o nich. że gdy znaleźli orzeszek,

Ziarnko dzielili na dwoje;

Słowem, tacy przyjaciele,

Jakich i wtenczas liczono niewiele.

Rzekłbyś; dwójduch w jednym ciele.

 

O tej swojej przyjazni raz w cieniu dąbrowy

Kiedy gadali, łącząc swojo czułe mowy

Do kukań zozul i krakań gawronich,

Alić ryknęło raptem coś koło nich.

Leszek na dąb; nuż po pniu skakać jak dzięciołek.

Mieszek tej sztuki nie umie,

Tylko wyciąga z dołu ręce: "Kumie!"

Kum już wylazł na wierzchołek.

 

Ledwie Mieszkowi był czas zmrużyć oczy,

Zbladnąć, paść na twarz: a już niedźwiedź kroczy.

Trafia na ciało, maca: jak trup leży;

Wącha: a z tego zapachu,

Który mógł być skutkiem strachu.

Wnosi, że to nieboszczyk i że już nieświeży.

Więc mruknąwszy ze wzgardą odwraca się w knieję,

Bo niedźwiedź Litwin miąs nieświeżych nie je.

 

Dopieroż Mieszek odżył... "Było z tobą krucho! -

Woła kum, - szczęście, Mieszku, że cię nie zadrapał!

Ale co on tak długo tam nad tobą sapał.

Jak gdyby coś miał powiadać na ucho?"

"Powiedział mi - rzekł Mieszek - przysłowie niedźwiedzie:

Że prawdziwych przyjaciół poznajemy w biedzie".
