A modern movie that I loved was...

Le Pacte des loups

Also Known As: Brotherhood of the Wolf

I watched it subtitled in its original French form at the theatre and Wow was it an awesome movie!!!
I later watched it dubbed in English at home, but the movie is very bad dubbed in English.

You lose out on all of the wonderful voice tones and passions expressed in its original French form watching it dubbed in English.
I own the movie now on DVD and I only watch it in its Original French form.
It is a wonderfully made move. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

@ Cleglaw
The funny thing about this movie is :
even the original version in french is dubbed.
The main actors Catherine Deneuve and Nino Castelnuevo did not really sing they were dubbed. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" />
It is the same thing for the next musical movie of Jacques Demy : "Les demoiselles de Rochefort".
The main actors did not sing except Gene Kelly of course.



I agree with you "Le pacte des loups" is a great movie.
I don't know why the american people are not good to make dubbed versions of movies.
In France the dubbed versions of movies are quite good.
The movies and TV series are dubbed by good french actors and the text is said in the way to fit correctly to the movement of the lips of the original actor.

Actually some french directors prefer to create their movies in an original english version instead of a french version because they want to sell the movies to the english speaking countries.
It is the case of Luc Besson with "The third element" and "Joan of Arc".

Is this the Off Topic thread.......
Good........ Cos I like Dimebars, whats your favourite "everyday"chocolate bar?, know what I mean, Mars, Snickers and the like??
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

My favorite movies would be those spaghetti westerns by Sergio Leone.

My favorite chocolate bar's the Mars, though I do feel like I dont get much for my money (they're quite small)




Maybe it's because they lack practice? I mean, the french dub almost ALL american movies, but do the americans dub every french movie made? I dont think so.

MAN, this has turned into a BIG thread...

My favorite movie of all times is Pulp Fiction. It's got everything you need. Action, humour (pretty bizzare humore, but still), it's long but you neer feel it's TOO long. Great movie.

I allso liked Life of Brian. Hilarious <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />.

Smoke, ... two smoking barrels, nice.

Requiem for a Dream - every parent must have. Show their kids in educational purposes.

I like Akira Kurosawa and Takeshi Kitano movies:
Shichinin no Samurai (7 Samurai), Sanjuro, Dersu Uzala, Yojimbo, - these are my favs. So I am big samurai fan. Hehe, and I learn Aikido for two months also, I already have kimono and boken (samurai wooden sword) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

I also love Toshiro Mifune <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Kitano's awesome movies - Zatoichi, Musashi.

Aragami was nice but I have no idea who was the producer.

21 grams - awesome, as good as Memento.

I love Bruce Willis, and Fifth Element, Sixths Sense are my favs.

Artificial Intelligence another awesome movie.

I also love War movies so here they come: Full Metal Jacket, Saving Private Ryan, Apocalypse Now, Windtalkers.

Blair Witch Project 1 uff scary [nocando] <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Final Destination 1, 2 - Great Concept about inevitability of destiny.
Matrix 1 is another great movie showing us model of the universe (there is no spoon eh )

Aliens and Predators and one vs another, for fun <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Russian: Nikita Mikhalkov movies like - The Barber of Siberia
Pavel Chukhraj movies like - A Driver for Vera.
Andrei Tarkovsky like - the Stalker

These russian movies are absolutely must see <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

One last I just can't miss - One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. It is a masterpiece and Jack Nicholson is super.

Ohh I should stop for now, but there are many many great movies I didn't include yet <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

[color:"orange"]Is run Lola run french ?[/color]
Nope - as peculiar, as it may seem - it is originally a German production.

Yes, this movie was very good, but it only touched those who had a soul.
So, I guess you're not really undead Egin. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

I cried for a week everytime I thought about the ending of this movie it touched my heart that much. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />

Don't mind spick.
That's just spicks sense of humor.

@ Spick
Good question !
My favourite chocolate bar is "Kinder Bueno".
I really like the milk chocolate, the crispy wafer and the tasty hazel nut cream inside the wafer.
I am completely addict to it. If i begin to eat one bar, i continue to eat at least ten bars.




@ Stone
I also enjoy a lot the Fritz Lang movies.
I saw "Le testament du docteur Mabuse" in the french version. Very great movie.

During the years 1930 and 1940, a lot of french movies were created in two versions by the same director.
French and english versions or french and german versions.
Sometimes with the same actors in the two languages and sometimes with different actors.
