But I think that biggest thing that really helped me learn the language was watching movies. For me, that movie was The Lion King. As well as a whopping ton of Power Rangers.

I figured if at the age of 5 watching movies in English can help, watching French movies at the age of 20 should have some positive impact.

SO!! If you know any good French movies please let me know! I don't mean like awesome French action movies or anything, but something that's just.. well.. rich in French culture. I'm always trying to find new French movies to watch, but so far have been limited(not in a bad way!) to Audrey Tautou movies (I friggen LOVE Amelie). I've also been obessed with Anthony Bourdain's No Reservation on the Travel Channel ever since I saw the France episode, but I would like to expand.

Great movie, with a great actress.
And, you can find it with English subtitles so you can get reinforcement as to whether you are translating correctly or not.

Suggest you buy it.
