Movie 1: Life of Pi (2012)

Life of Pi is a visually stunning adventure-drama directed by Ang Lee, based on the novel by Yann Martel. The story follows Pi Patel, a young man who survives
a shipwreck and finds himself adrift in the Pacific Ocean on a lifeboat—with only a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker for company.
Blending breathtaking visuals with a moving tale of survival, courage, and faith, the film explores the power of storytelling and the resilience of the
human spirit. With its combination of technical mastery and emotional depth, Life of Pi became both a critical and box office success, winning multiple
Academy Awards including Best Director.

Planet of the Apes is a groundbreaking science fiction classic directed by Franklin J. Schaffner, adapted from the novel by Pierre Boulle. The film stars

With its unforgettable twist ending, sharp social commentary, and pioneering makeup effects, the film redefined science fiction cinema and became the start
