Hi all, today I want to tell you about a great man who died too early, and it is about Kurt Donald Cobain. Kurt Cobain born on 20 February 1967 in the Grays Harbor hospital in Aberdeen, Washington. Kurt grew up in a musical family: his maternal uncle Chuck Fradenburg, performed by a group called The Beachcombers, aunt Mary Earl played guitar in various local bands, great-uncle Delbert had a career of tenor and even starred in the 1930 movie "King of jazz".Interest in music manifested itself quite early: according to his relatives, at the age of two years he gladly sang the songs of The Beatles. In four years he wrote his first song about a trip to the local Park. At the age of seven received a gift from my aunt a drum kit.In 1985 Kurt formed a band, called Fecal Matter, but soon the group changed its name to Nirvana.Kurt Cobain a great musician and performer, became famous for having played grunge and rock with his rock band.He died on 5 April 1994 because he was suicidal.

  My favourite movie is called "Hachiko". The film was shot by the Holliwood film producer Lasser Khalstryom in 2009.

The role of the main hero in the film was brilliantely performed by a popular American film actor Richard Gere. I highly recommend to watch film "Hachiko" to all those people who haven't seen it yet.   This is an amazing story about the dog which was the most faithful and devoted friend in the whole world for her owner. Now in Japan you can see Hachiko's memorial.  The plot is remarkable but very tragic: Parker Wilson (Richard Gere), a University Professor, returning home in the evening after work, finds at the train station a lost puppy. After several unsuccessful attempts to find the owner of the dog, Parker decides to keep the puppy, naming him Hachiko. From that moment between Parker and Hachiko occurs deep friendship and sincere affection, they spend much time together.

Every morning, Hachiko accompanies the master, hurrying to work, to the station, and in the evening waits for his return, sitting on the parapet in front of the entrance to the station. This ritual continues for a long time, Hachiko is already  known to all the sellers and employees of the station. One day, Parker went to work, where he had a heart attack and he died... but Hachiko continues to come daily to the station and wait for the Parker’s train.  Parker's wife moves to another city and wants to take Hachiko, however, he escapes and returns to the station, where remains to live. Ten years later, the wife of Parker arrives to visit the grave of her husband and at the station she sees Hachiko still waiting for his master... After some time, Hachiko dies on the parapet, where he so many years was waiting for Parker.
