The embark into the world of film can be scary, but it can be especially scary when its in another language!
With the publicity from the award winning movie Parasite, you may now be curious in the deep of dive foreign films. Which may seem daunting at first but trust me, its a lot easier and not as scary as it seems!
There is two “routes” you can go with them; dub or sub. Dub means that the language is doubled over in your choice. The only issue with this is that the sound sometimes doesn’t match up with the video. Sub is the movie with the subtitles in your language. Issues with this are, obviously, having to read what is happening.
In my opinion, I prefer subtitles.
But, no matter what way you prefer to enjoy them, they are all equally as interesting. When looking into movies from other nations, it’s interesting to see different styles, plots and character interaction compared to ones you regularly see.
The best way to “get into” them is to start watching and what a better time than quarantine to start!
Some of my all time favorite movies are in other languages. Here’s a list of a few!
