An english movie with subtitles?
We love to watch movies at home on the weekend and have built up a really nice collection of movies. Lately we seem to be turning on the dvd subtitle even though the movie was in English. We did it when we saw Amadeus, which is based on the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and has several dialogues that are spoken so low and in an accented English that it just made it simpler to turn on the subtitles. It does take the focus away from the figures and the photography, but in an historical movie, each and every word is so important that if one misses anything at all, it can change everything. I told a friend about turning on the subtitles in an English movie and she said that’s what they did as well, since half the movies now days have actors mumbling and muttering stuff under their breath and you can only understand it if you have the subtitles on.
