“Movie Night“
Hallo ihr lieben,
door 4 of our Advent Calender and behind this door, there is… drumroll…
a Lernfilm for beginners
I recently found this on Youtube by chance. I’m actually pretty sure that the channel uploading itis NOT the people who actually made the movie, but I wasn’t able to find out where it comes from.
Here are the specs:
- length: 43 min
- subtitles: German
- Level: A2
- speech: clear and really easy to follow
- camp-factor: 70%
- rated : R (contains some nudity… nah kidding, doesn’t)
Plot summary:
Four adults, two men and two women, meet in Thai Chi class and go to a café after. They talk about work, life and other things. One of them has a crush on the waitress. They later also meet in the streets and we get to see daily life unfold.
Reception:
Emanuel, overlord of interns at Yourdailygerman and accomplished movie critic had this to say:
“The movie is rather low key, but that’s to be expected from a Lernfilm. The actors do a fine job portraying normal adults and the manage to speak very clearly without having it sound forced. Especially the woman with the huge braces deserves a special mention for that.
The movie drags on from time to time, and we could call it boring, if it wasn’t for a weird sexual undertone. The way it is shot, with smiles, looks, lots of close ups and cuts, and the fact that they’re all acting so chaste makes you think… this could turn into a swinger orgie movie at any moment.
But the director never crosses that line.
Overall, if you’re a beginner and you need an easy movie with subtitles then this is perfect for you.”
Viel Spaß :).
(I’m gonna post the link here now, assuming it doesn’t turn into an embed. Take note, lawyers)
Seriously, what kind of thumbnail is that :D.
Anyway, let me know how you liked it. Schönen Tag und bis morgen!!
Danke
Danke
Ich könnte es fast alles verstanden. Ja, nicht so spannend aber auch nicht schlecht. Danke dir!
Kleine Korrektur :)
es ist “konnte” hier, nicht “könnte”
Das war super! Und ich konnte gut verstehen. Danke scho:n.
freut mich :)!
I’ve been watching Tatort recently but it’s really too advanced for me, so this was great- a good level for me and made me realise I have actually improved over time. Emanuel, your calendar so far this year has been exceptional! Something different every day. It’s a joy to open daily. Thanks and looking forward to the book :) (Put me second on the order list after Amerikanerin)
Ah, that’s good that you felt your progress! It took me a while too, before I was actually able to understand spoken English in movies even though I had English in school.
Lots of rewinding to watch the same sentence again and again :)
Ich habe Spaß, dieser süße Film anzuschauen. Vielen Danke auf die Beteiligung darüber!
Freut mich :)! Aber was meinst du mit “Beteiligung”? Das Wort passt hier nicht.
Ah, ich glaube du meinst “Mitteilung”… das ist okay, aber am besten ist hier “Tipp”.
Vielen Dank! Haben Sie schon diese kleine Serie gesehen? Es wurde in Schweden gemacht, aber es gibt auch Untertitel auf Deutsch … https://urskola.se/Produkter/177536-Der-Bankraub-Papas-Bank?fbclid=IwAR11hkvsDjibmwD93TunpO8kjZ-LaMVDIEVfSPEw9pSajbHxHW3UlOAG7YE#Om-serien
Sieht sehr cool aus. Aber wie mache ich die deutschen Untertitel? Ich habe nur Schwedisch gefunden.
Klick das T unten rechts an. Dann klick Tyska an. Hilft das?
Ah ja, jetzt sehe ich es :)
unfortunately couldn’t watch the movie, but I trust in other lessons, It must be very good.
Danke Emanuel. Das war super toll für mich. Und hilfreich.
Wait, why couldn’t you watch it? Can you use Youtube in your country or is it blocked?
I don’t know if you fully planned all the calendar,but if there is still some Vacant spots. I have a suggestion.
The verb “behave” and how childern who don’t behave wont get gifts
That’s a nice suggestion except… it’s not German :)
Well. You could translate it ;)
But then it’s not a be-verb anymore. The topic needs to be a German word, not an English one. Company policy, so to speak :)
Benehmen got ya ;)
Indeed :)! I was thinking about “verhalten”.
Now, you gotta benehmen and write about benehmen ;)
Hmpf… we’ll see.
Sorry if that bothered you
Danke schön!
Es ist für mich nicht einfach aber es ist eine gute Übung.
Das ist das wichtigste! Weißt du, dass du bei Youtube die Geschwindigkeit ändern kannst? Du könntest 75% machen, vielleicht ist es dann einfacher.
So viel besser als arbeiten. Sehr gut!
Hahahahaha… ja, genau!!
Vielen Dank! Not exactly “The Big Lebowsky” but great stuff to watch commuting to uni! Using a headset, that is – I don’t think my fellow train commuters would appreciate hearing it.
Ufff… I really didn’t like that movie when I saw it. It was such a hype around it. People in my class would quote it constantly and I never cared. And then I watched it and I was thoroughly underwhelmed.
This always happens to me with hype movies. Pulp Fiction… *fartnoise. Kill Bill … *fartnoise . From Dusk till Dawn… *fartnoise
I think it’s partially because I’m really lazy and I usually don’t get references.
Agree 100% on all of those underwhelming movies Manuel. I have watched this silly, bad acting Lernfilm before, but it delivered all the things you promised it would. No orgy in site in that Lernfilm but the viewer will find out what they all secretly wished was gonna happen!
Ein sehr spannender Fim mit viel Alltäglichen Ausdrücken ..
Danke und bis Morgen . AHMAD
Sehr spannend ist vielleicht übertrieben :).
