The First League :Lina Wertmüller

Reading over the AOF ,we realised Lina Wertmüller is the first female woman ever to be nominated for an Academy Award for Directing .In order to know more about her ,i did a research about her background.

She was borned in Rome with a catholic Swiss family .And when she was young , she was pretty rebellious and she got expelled from a lots of Catholic school.She got into theatre school even though her family disagreed with.After graduated ,the next tens years , she has been trying to be an actresses and directors.
Finally,she was nominated with an Academy Award nomination for best director with the film -Seven Beauties.We watched the part of the beginning during classes.Here is another scene in the film.



It is funny yet clear .From this very short film ,we can realise the personality of the main character and the style of this film.No doubt ,it is definitely a good film .

I am very glad that Lina Wertmüller didn't give up movie because of her family .Her father has always wanted her to be a lawyer when she was young. However ,instead of going to law school ,she got into theatre school and pursuit her dream.After spending years of time making films ,eventually everything is worth and she is definitely a league .

I think we can learn from her .We always have a dream in our life .No matter how people around us think , we just live for ourselves .And do what we want for our life .And then nothing is impossible if we have the belief and we are willing to try .Before Lina  Wertmüller  ,we may not even think of women can be nominated as the men for the best director .She becomes famous and we all learn about her during class as she is already a part of the moive industry and an encouragment of women who are passionate about making films. We should be proud of her.
