PAY IT FORWARD

PAY IT FORWARD The movie was filmed in 2000. It's a film about the work of a seventh grader that created a movement that becomes an example for everyone. Trevor, a little boy, he was eleven years old and goes in seventh grade. Trevor had social studies class, with a new teacher, who encourages them to think about the outside world thatthey exist not only in the world but there are more people out there; for assignment the teacher made them was thinking about an idea that can change the world and they have to put it into action. On his way home, Trevor saw some dirty, hungry and smelly people in a garbage dump, and then he thought it would be a good idea to help one of them. So he took one homeless guy with him and he feed him,let him sleep over and also take a shower in the morning. The man tried to pass the favor or pay it forward trying to fixing the Trevor's mother truck. Like many times in our lives things do not go as we planned or just do not happen how we wanted, because the next day when he tried to go look for the homeless guy he could not find him he, the homeless was hiding of him because he was drugged,then decided to surrender to him and he thought that he had failed on his work. So he decided to help another person and the other one will be his teacher and he will help him getting him a date with her mother like a blind date but finally it didn’t work so well at the beginning but later it worked.

A reporter from Los Angeles, one day he was in a situation between the police and a villain whohad kidnapped a woman, as a result of that situation the villain's car crashed the journalist´s car while he was trying to escape, then a man appeared and told him took the keys of my car (a Jaguar), the Journalist was very amazed, and he asked this man why had he done that, and the guy just told him pay it forward is why I am doing this and is the only thing that I want from you. The next day thereporter asked the man why had done this to him again and what does pay it forward means, so he told him that once a person saved the life of his daughter in a hospital and that gut told him pay it forward and now I´m paying it forward to you, the journalist. The journalist was very intrigued and shocked by this response and also about those kind of favors, also he wanted to find who had createdthat; the reporter found the person who had saved the daughter´s life of this man and told him that this had simply pay it forward because an old woman had done it in Las Vegas helping him to escape from police who were trying to chasing him.

Trevor keep doing his favor and now the third person was a classmate who was bullied by a group of kids in school, one day he tried to stop them but hecouldn’t do anything, he only made them that throw the kind into a trash. One day the real father of Trevor showed and his mom again decided to give him another chance, with this decision the teacher was very angry with Trevor´s mom because when he was a child something similar happened to him and the result was that his father caught on gas and so I had half his face burned and also have scars onhis body so he did not want something similar will happen to Trevor. When Trevor’s mom went home found her husband drunk and was reclaiming her that because of her his child does not want to talk or even look at him, then discussed and she thought about what the teacher has told her so she kicked her husband out of her house. The teacher and Trevor's mother didn’t talk between them for a while, thatmade Trevor thought that nothing had worked, none of the favors he had done had not worked and also the chain of favors.

But Trevor did not realize that actually the person who really his project worked was his mother, who later will keep the chain of favor going. Trevor´s mom saw that her son that who only was eleven years and has gave her a reason to change her life, plus giving up her...
