One of the ways that I pick up foreign language listening skills is watching movies and TV series in the language. For Italian I took it one step further in that I made bingo sheets of common expressions to encourage listening instead of just reading subtitles.
I will probably do the same for French at some point. Here is a list from 2011 that I found, of the top 10 French films.
- Bienvenue chez les Ch’tis
- La Grande vadrouille
- Astérix et Obélix : Mission Cléopâtre
- Les Visiteurs
- Le Petit monde de Don Camillo
- Corniaud
- Taxi 2
- 3 hommes et un couffin
- Les Bronzés 3 amis pour la vie
Oops, one missing from the top 10. Maybe I misunderstood the last paragraph of the article.
