Goodbye, Lenin! Chas Send a noteboard - 26/09/2009 03:14:48 PM
Do you enjoy watching foreign movies? Animated or live-action?


Yes and both.

What are your all time favorites?


Goodbye, Lenin!
Princess Mononoke
Priceless
Yeopgijeogin geunyeo
Cidade de Deus
The Motorcycle Diaries
District 9.

Which cultures (nations) films do you find yourself most interested in?


It would appear to be none in particular.

Do you prefer dubs over original language, in live-action and/or animated?


I despise dubs. Give me subtitles.

How did you find yourself becoming interested in foreign films, (i.e. Audrey Tautou obsession, Asian horror obsession, general interest in foreign culture)?


I like good movies. Movie looks good- I watch it.

What 'hyped' foreign film has let you down upon viewing it (if any)?


I don't believe that I've ever been let down. Of course I don't really follow promotions so...

How do you feel about remakes, are there any that have been pulled off successfully?


No clue.

Wild Things is only my 5th all time favourite so I guess that puts a dent in your theory AgentOrange - 28/09/2009 02:09:28 PM 659 Views
