Friday Night Films

Bonjour! Je suis etudiant en francaise! Ca va?

I'm sorry it's horrible! I'm only a few classes into my French, but I'm enjoying learning very much! Usually I am pretty good at accents, but I've come to realize that accents that don't require the English language are difficult (My good accents are Irish, British, Southern, etc).

I've been re-watching The Dreamers so many times and I'm trying to pick up their accents. Every time I watch it, I'm left amazed. I've seen it countless times. I never get tired of it. Whenever I watch it, I feel as though I am transported to another world--their world. It's such a wonderful film and I suck for not being articulate enough to convince you, but I am posting the trailer here anyway.



Okay, that does NO justice to the film at all, but if you found the trailer wonderful, then you will be blown away by the film. It didn't really garner an overwhelming score with Rotten Tomatoes (just saying for those of you like me who consider the site the best basis for movie ratings). I haven't really tried to dissect the movie and look at the cinematography and script and just all the things that critics usually look to to see if it's a worthy movie. Whenever I watch it, I just watch and it makes such an impact. I guess that's why I love it so much.

It's not a film for everyone, but for those who love film, Paris, history, then it's worth checking out! I want everybody to check it out! If you do watch it, please comment and tell me whatever you thought of it (love it or hate it, whatever!).
