As we all know, the French language has many merits and for centuries has been widely regarded as a beautiful language.
But for some reason, when it comes to translating the title of a new English language movie, there is a strong tendency in the French film industry to stick to English; but not in the way you would think!
Instead, they create a diluted, more direct version of the title, aiming to reach the French audience with limited English vocabulary but retaining the ‘cool’ feeling of the English. I can only describe it as a ‘translation’ into France-friendly English.
