The new film season starts up at Bagni di Lucca.
This is the programme:
Some films may be in the original language with Italian subtitles. Others may be Italian films without subtitles. Others may even be dubbed in Italian. Whatever sound format the films are presented in they are not only an enticing selection but an excellent way of improving one’s Italian, whether spoken or written or heard.
All films are screened in Bagni di Lucca’s library in the old Anglican Church on the Thursday at 9.15 PM starting from January 10th.
Surely watching films in these long winter evenings is a great way of passing the time.
Which reminds me of Italian soaps as an aid to improving one’s Italian (especially colloquially). Though nowhere on the epic length of the UK’s ‘Corrie’ which has been running since 1960 and has reached close to ten thousand episodes ‘Un Posto al Sole’ deserves praise. Although running only since 1996 it has clocked up over five thousand episodes so far.
I wonder what your favourite soap is. Mine’s ‘Roger & Gallet’ (I’m not much of a soap – in that other sense of the word – addict!).
