Filming took place from November 1998 to May 1999, and the film was released to generally favorable reviews from critics, and grossed approximately $206 million worldwide. Sleepy Hollow won the Academy Award for Best Art Direction

OPINION:

Honestly, I liked this movie a lot. I found it very interesting. I really like the role of the protagonist, especially the one played by Johny Deep. The part that I liked the most about the movie was when, in the end, they discovered who was really the murderer. I liked it also because it's a medium film and I like it a lot.

WRITING AN INFORMAL EMAIL

Hi Jeff,

How are you? What have you been doing since I saw you last? You won't believe it, but I've started rowing.

I deciden to go along to row because football was boring. I prefer rowing than football because I train a lot, I have a lot of friends there and it is more intensive. Now we are training for a competition.

Has that ever happened to you? I mean, have you had an opinion about something but then got involved in it and changed your mind? It's never happened to me before! I feel much more responsable now.

Anyway, I've got to go now. Keep in touch.

Take care.

MY LAST SUMMER

Hello, today I'm going to talk about my summer holidays. First of all, I'm going to talk about the days in June and first days of July. Second, I'm going to talk about my trip to Napols and finally I'm going to talk about the 11th of September, Catalonia's day.

When I finished school, I trained a lot because on the 7th, 8th and 9th of July I had a rowing competition. These weeks were very hard and intensive. I trained every day between two and four hours. When I finished the competition I relaxed. In the morning I played computer games and, in the afternoons I hung out friends every day.

In August I went to Napols. I stayed there one week and, sincerely, I had fun. We visited a lot of monuments, ruins and, obviously we relaxed on the beach or in the bedroom of the hotel. We returned by plane.

The 11th of September was a very special day for all the catalan people. We celebrate the National day of Catalonia. All the people that were wanted the independence of Catalonia. In Barcelona there were 1 Million people! The worst part of the day was that it was the last summer day. Luckily I had finished my homework.

These were my summer holidays,
