When a foreign film has no subtitles in your language, but you watch it anyway?

Lol I once watched a Czechoslovakian film with Portuguese subtitles and my level of knowledge on both is 0. I watched it again but this time it was dubbed in Italian and with English subtitles so finally I understood it 😂

@Elegy depends on what good means to each one of us 😂 it was "Valerie and her week of wonders".

@HannibalAteMeOut it sounds VERY 70's lol. 🤣

@Elegy it's the ultimate 70's witchy film 😂
Some films are not ONLY about the dialogue ...

Some directors create poems by creating a vision ... Those films are more about composition, color, light, and music..

Sergei Parajanov, a very famous Armenian film director created only 4 films, 3 of which had no dialogue at all, yet, the audience could sit and watch without getting bored..

Only a few people will understand this.
English is my only language, my guide is dutch, watching Dutch subtitled films in English is mental torture.
kung fu hussle is only good with sub titles..

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout idk, some kung fu movies you don't really need dialog, I just watch for the many fight scenes 😆
@SW-User but the jokes go over like a lead balloon when its dubbed.

None. I can listen to music not in my language, but for films I need to know what's happening.
