It's a rainy Sunday, so I'm lounging around the house, reading and playing music and the like. This post is pretty short so I'm not going to translate. But I found some trailers for two films that I'm really excited to see this summer, and are actually kind of relevant so I wanted to share them here.
French Immersion
Do I really need to say more than the title? :P Filmed south of Montréal but set in a fictional town in northern Québec (quite probably in my region, which is 99% francophone), the cast includes Colm Feore and Gavin Crawford who are both hilarious and great actors. It's by the same directors as Bon Cop Bad Cop and it follows five anglophones through an intensive immersion program where the community members even act as spies to ensure CONSTANT ADHERENCE to speaking in french! English trailer here, French trailer here, and the official website with a different trailer here.
PhD Comics - The Movie
PHD (Piled Higher and Deeper - or, you know, a Doctor of Philosphy) is a popular webcomic about the ups and downs of research and academia. Now they're adapting some of the strips into a movie! Cecilia is my favourite character; she's an engineering grad student with comic strips about engineering, the Ratio, cookies, and unabashedly geeky things. Even though school sometimes drives her crazy, she loves learning so she keeps at it.
And that's it! I'll put up a proper post in a few days.
