Watching French movies is a great way to start preparing your mind for hearing a lot of French! Plus it might give you a sense of the French culture (which can be a little odd at times). However, many French movies have coarse language and nudity. So let's try and come up with a list of Immanuel-approved French movie recommendations!

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
"Le scaphandre et le papillon" The Girl on the Bridge"La fille sur le pont"Persepolis
^^ Thanks for these suggestions Liz!

The Return of Martin Guerre
"Le Retour de Martin Guerre" -- I had to watch this one in college. I don't remember much about it, but I think I can recommend it.
Queen to Play
"Joueuse" --> this one is on netflix, and I think it's actually pretty good.
Haute Cuisine
(Les Saveurs du Palais) -- also on netflix. Haven't seen it yet, but it's PG 13 so it's *probably* okay.

Les Choristes -- great soundtrack. great everything.
