Question:1 Write a movie review based on movie Rockford. 

'Rockford' movie is a compiling 1999 Indian English language, coming of age drama film written and directed by Nagesh Kukunoor. Produced by Padmini Kolhapure.  

  'Araby' is a story written by James Joyce. It is a story transition from childhood into adulthood. This story based on the one boy who infatuation with his friend's sister.

In the story, the boy stayed with his uncle and aunty and in the movie, the boy stayed in boarding. In the story, boy attracted with his friend's sister and in the movie, the boy was attracted to the girl. In the story, the boy did not like to study or go to school and in the movie, the boy was very smart and sincere. 

Rockford movie shows how many struggles one has to do in a boy's boarding and ragging is also done there. The boy Rajesh Naidu was very innocent and good in study and other activities. 

Earlier no one paid any attention to him. Then a sport teacher know him and guide him. Rajesh was always inspired by his mentor. 

Rajesh was topper in the class. Rajesh experiences the joy and agony with his friends. He was met PT teacher, who teaches Rajesh a lot of lessons of life.  He supported to him in everything. In the movie shows how they are conscious of the girls in the boys boarding school. 

Rockford movie is best movie for students. It remind us to our school day's and school life. Sometimes we also did many such things which are shown in the movie. From this I learn to learn live a alone,  to maintain friendship well, to always do right and good, and always be honest. If we also get a teacher like PT teacher, we also become capable of doing everything.
