(1) the song --"When you taught me how to dance" performed by Katie Melua
When you taught me how to dance(Lyrics)
When you taught me how to dance
Years ago with misty eyes
Every step and silent glance
Every move a sweet surprise
Someone must have taught you well
To beguile and to entrance
For that night you cast your spell
And you taught me how to dance
Light reflections in a lake
I recall what went before
As I give, I'll learn to take
And to be alone no more
Other lights may light my way
I may even find romance
But I won't forget that night
When you taught me how to dance
Cold winds blow
But on those hills you’ll find me
And I know
You’re walking right behind me
When you taught me how to dance
Years ago with misty eyes
Every step and silent glance
Every move a sweet surprise
Someone must have taught you well
beguile and to entrance
For that night you cast your spell
And you taught me how to dance
And you taught me how to dance.
(2) Do you like the movie? Which character interests you most?
I like the movie and I appreciate Miss Potter's character. She is a brave, intelligent and independent woman who knows what she really wants and pursue it. Miss Potter is the representative of free and individual female and gives me more thought about my future.
