I would like to watch french TV shows and movies so I keep up with my french. I don't live anywhere where many people speak french so I don't use it on a regular basis.
My french is not great but I found I was able to enjoy and understand the TV show "The Returned" because they didn't talk particularly fast or in a strange dialect.
Can anyone recommend any other really good french TV shows or movies? I recently tried a comedy movie but they spoke too fast for me.
Thank you!
My favorite French Film is Amélie. It's a really a cute romantic comedy.
Yeah,
Amélie was good. I've seen a few other French movies before (all in French class, and no, not the ones you'd expect!
), but most of them weren't that great.
One of them was
Danton (1983, I think). I guess that one really was pretty good (especially in comparison to the rest...) but still not as good as
Amélie IMHO. Another one I saw was
Diva, which honestly is only good if you're into that sort of thing.
If you're not (like I wasn't), it just looks really, really bizarre.
There's also
La Ballade des Dalton, but I can't honestly say I actually saw it, because everybody else in class was being so goddamn noisy!
