heya! here's that list of french learning resources + shows i promised :^) sorry this took so long, midterms came out of nowhere for me LOL

wordref is a great language-to-language dictionary (it's got a ton of others besides eng/fr) - it gives you multiple context-dependent translations and conjugations for different verbs and nouns, which can be super helpful with all the semantics that come up in french

this is a pretty good collection of practice tests for the DELF, which is a FDL/French as a Second Language proficiency test conducted by the french national ministry of education. there's several levels (A1-C2, with the As being more or less high school-level and C focusing on business and industry terminology). passing the B2 version is generally considered the benchmark for fluency; i took and passed the B2 in 2017 so if you have any specific questions abt that lmk!

tv5monde has some great video-based learning exercises designed for non-native speakers as well. typically an exercise will consist of a video (subtitled in french) and a graded comprehension quiz, which i always found really helpful since you can both hear, read, and apply the vocab all in one place

conjuguemos still strikes fear into my heart even five years out of high school but it is a good quick study tool. it's kind of like quizlet in that it'll give you a subject, verb infinitive, and tense for you to conjugate (hence conjuguemos) and it'll grade your answers

this is a really awesome list of other resources for all kinds of skill levels; it mentions some of the ones i've listed above along with many others that i haven't had a chance to check out.

in terms of films/tv/youtube/tiktok/etc., i'd definitely recommend starting out by watching content with french audio and english subtitles so you can kinda get the hang of listening for certain vocabulary, and then once you're comfortable with that i personally think watching with french subtitles is really helpful, because the range of accents is so wide (i still can't understand québecois accents) and it's nice to be able to follow along. i also think watching french news programs (like tv5, france24, and le monde) can be super helpful!

finally, here's a list of my favorite francophone films and shows, in no particular order: le fabuleux destin d'amélie poulain, les intouchables, l'auberge espagnole, cléo de cinq à sept, fatima, persepolis, lupin

and please feel free let me know if you have any questions, want any advice on where to start, or need any conversation practice! bonne chance :D

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH ILL BE SURE TO CHECK ALL OF THESE OUT!!! ill definitely reach out if i have any questions or need help or practice!! this was so nice of you to put together for me i really really appreciate it<333

20 19 14 !!!! or just 20 i need more movie recs :D

hi rio ^_^ thank you 4 the ask

14. Who is your favorite director? Why?

i really like ridley scott's stuff (you know how i am about alien) but agnès varda's work really helped get me into film in the first place :^) cléo de cinq à sept is a favorite for shore

19. What part of filmmaking do you find most interesting (ie. sound design, costuming, set design, etc)?

hmmm well as a writer i do think the screenwriting process is super interesting (<- guy who is procrastinating writing a script at this very moment) but i also love costume and production design. i used to work in the costume department at a theatre so i am a little biased lol

20. What movies do you have on your current to-watch list?

ogh so many. currently i've got cube 2: hypercube, phantom of the paradise, and jacobs ladder for tha spooky season but i'm going to see the fnaf movie at the end of the month!!

Cléo from 5 to 7 (1962) ‘Cléo de cinq à sept’

Directed by Agnès Varda

[readingrereading]

99 Books #62: How Late It Was

Kelman’s How Late It Was, How Late (1994) won the Booker in 1994. Written in Glaswegian “dialect,” it’s the inner monologue of a kind of introspective dumbass everyman as he undergoes a Job-like series of trails and reversals, mainly at the hands of implacable state bureaucracies ostensibly created to help him (the police, social services, health care).

I admit, I put it down after 133 pages, fatigued by the monotony of protagonist Sammy’s predicament -- which I think is part of the point of the point. There is a contrast between Sammy’s lively inner life and the lonely drudgery of bus-taking, line-waiting, and petty humiliation by authorities; it’s kind of a Cléo de cinq à sept but much longer and with a sexist loudmouth as protagonist.

In 1990, Glasgow had been declared the “cultural capital of Europe.” Perhaps this book is Kelman’s answer. 

In the 99 books project I only look up info on books that I don’t finish. I looked up this one, and was dismayed to find that its selection for the Booker was controversial. Some conservatives and snobs opposed the book -- some, apparently, because it has a lot of bad words in it (Kingsley Amis deployed the tired argument that using “fuck” is a crutch that impoverishes language -- it only took my 20 pages to toss aside his Booker winner, so whatever). A judge on the Booker panel opined, “Frankly, it’s crap.” I don’t agree with these fools. But I don’t want to ride the bus with ol’ Sammy for another 200 pages either.

Next up: 1994 Nebula winner Red Mars, which I accidentally read ages ago. So on to the 1995 Pulitzer for General Nonfiction, The Beak of the Finch.
