Films and books
Talking about films and books
When a new book or film comes out, newspapers and websites, like BookLikes and IMDb,
will review it. The people who review the book/film are called book reviewers / film critics
and they write book/film reviews. If they don’t like a book/film they give it a bad review.
We can say that a novel or film is based on a true story. We say that a book/film captures
an atmosphere or that a book/film deals with a topic. We talk about the opening/closing
scenes of a film and the opening/closing chapters of a book. We talk about the beginning
and end of a book/film (NOT start and finish). If everything works out well for the central
characters, we say that the book/film has a happy ending. You may recommend a book/film
that you enjoyed to a friend. If a lot of people have enjoyed it, it is highly recommended.
