Movie Watching Tip: Don't Shy Away From Subtitles
This is pretty much a post for my fellow American.

Listen, just because a movie is in a foreign language doesn't mean it's goofy, stuffy and/or stupid anymore than it means it's smart, important and meaningful. Like English-language films, foreign language movies come in all styles - some great, many pathetic. Let the movie dictate if you'll watch it, not if it has subtitles or not. If you deny any movie because of subtitles you're missing some sincerely great cinema.

If nothing else, please never respond with "yeah, I don't watch movies to read em'." Saying that makes you look like a complete dolt, and a belligerent one at that.

How True ! I humbly suggest a movie me and my family really like, and yes it is a foreign (German) with subtitles, and it is adorable! I am talking about "Mostly Martha", the movie "No Reservations" is attempting to copy ( "No Reservations" 's casting is no good, in MHO. Anyway, if you see it at your favorite rental place, grab it and let me see if you like !
Ciao !
