There is an opinion that foreign films should be watched in the original, since during dubbing, the intonations of the actors and the play on words are lost. Also, going to film screenings with subtitles is useful for those who are learning the language in which the film is shown.
Cinema "35 mm"
This Moscow cinema is best known among language students, expats and dubbing skeptics. The films here come with subtitles in Russian, made specifically for 35 mm, which is considered a great advantage, since other cinemas broadcast subtitles prepared by distributors. Various film festivals of foreign countries are regularly held in “35 mm”. For example, there are festivals of Danish, Dutch, German, Greek, Brazilian, Japanese and other films in the original language. The film screenings are organized by the embassies of countries, cultural centers and universities. You can get acquainted with the cinema schedule on the official website kino35mm.ru.
