Movies
Set in 1938 pre-peronist Argentina, the film tells the story of an English governess, Miss Mary (Julie Christie), and her experiences while caring for three children at an Estancia (ranch) of a wealthy, aristocratic landowner. The isolated location and hermetic existence of the family leads Miss Mary into a liaison with the eldest boy, who has fallen in love with her. This serious indiscretion on her part has lasting repercussions among members of the family.
Starring: Julie Christie, Sofia Viruboff, Donald Mc Intire, Barbara Bunge, among others. Directed by: Maria Luisa Bemberg.

I recommend this movie for people that wanna know how was the way of life of people who lived in the argentinian field (estancias), through an intense part of our history. It is interesting to see how aristocratic argentine people was educated in european cultures, in this film you will see that the governess only talked to the children of the main family in english.
Another language that was frequently learned in the upper class was French.
You will find a little “slow” the timing in this film, but do not forget that was filmed in 1986!
I hope you like it.
