Basically
this movie is all about a teenage girl—Lizzie who have just graduated from
middle school, and to celebrate, she is taking part in a class trip to Rome,
Italy. Eager to celebrate their new maturity as high school students, Lizzie
and her pals-Gordo hope to treasure Italy in exciting ways, but fate has
something more spectacular in store for Lizzie.
This movie has a nice opening. It grab our attention from the very first shot.In the beginning of the movie, it showed the
most memorable part for Lizzie’s vacation in Italy. Paolo bring her visiting around using
motorbike. Then, the movie continues with the scene where Lizzie singing and
dancing like a pop star which likely indicate her talent and dream. With this
opening, there is a strong connection and indication with the middle part of
the story when Lizzie discovers that she bears a striking resemblance to
Isabella, an Italian teen-pop idol famous for her duets with heart-throb Paolo,
he asks Lizzie to take Isabella's place for an upcoming concert. Lizzie, however,
isn't sure she feels comfortable stepping into the spotlight, and is even less
sure about the way she feels about Paolo, who makes no secret of his
infatuation with her. (Rotten Tomatoes, 2003)
As conclusion, a good opening make people have good impression
toward the movie and spark our interest in the story to look forward to see what’s next.
Lizzie McGuire is a good example for this.
