Enough that I stopped watching after 28 minutes there was no CC so people that do not speak French miss half the dialog.
I lame this on my 6th grade GC who made me take German!

As a renaissance chick, I paint, write, and sing loudly off-key.

Honestly... I thought there was a fair bit lol. Majority is in English, but there are a few scenes where they talk french for like 3-5-ish minutes :)

I haven't watched it yet, but there's one more reason for me to being willing to.
Still, it would be awesome if the whole movie was spoken in French.

I guess so! But there were basically no english subtitles (atleast when i watched it haha)! I'll assume you understand French lol? :)

If it was a total french production then or something or rather it would make more sense for it to be completely spoken in French! In relation to my post above; i actually was pretty happy there were English parts hahah, otherwise i wouldnt have understood a thing other than the 5ish French words i know LOL ! :)

Yes, I do … among others. I enjoy learning other languages, interacting with different people with different cultures in order to being able to understand them and having nonjudgmental attitude. It also allows me to be open minded, tolerant, etc …
It’s a very satisfying challenge.
