Well, sort of. You take the DVD, and at the beginning it will ask you for your choice of languages (you have two choices, English or French), choose French, no subtitles, then sit back! It changes the entire completion of the movie. Just listening to Ching, Uncas, and Hawkeye all talking in French is something else. And Jack Winthrop is now "Milice" and not "Militia" (Vous avez une milice!) And now Montcalm and his boys SOUND French. So try it, you'll like it!

But, you say, I can't speak French. Doesn't matter. We all know the script by heart anyway.

Dear sir... and why should I not be afraid of this enemy who seeks to worm its way farther east into the Pennsylvania Colony, and farther south into the New York Colony? Why, I have feared for my life time after time -- whenever I hear of yet another raiding party that comes ever nearer, burning farms and killing or capturing poor innocent people who are merely trying to hack a living out of the wilderness with their own two hands, bearing their children along the way!

Even now as we speak, General Forbes has begun an expedition to try where others have failed -- to capture the French Fort Duquesne at the forks of the Ohio. I witnessed with my own eyes the start of this brave expedition, and I pray that it will be successful and will not come to the same consequence as that of that poor General Braddock.

Yes. I fear them as my enemy. And I hate them. For that, Sir... is the way of war.

Of course, our friend Billy Shakespear also said,

In time we hate that which we often fear.

Protest too much? I think not. I shall protest until the day I die, for I am a colonial provincial woman who is loyal to the Crown of England! Unlike many others, I will maintain that loyalty to King George II.

[WW slowly shakes her head knowingly.] How delusional the French are, and how arrogant. And how very typical of Miss-yer Lay-Fran-say to assume that everyone in the world has a deep, secret, burning desire to be French. Some day, someone will make a great study of this need to make the world France. And an interesting study it shall be...

God Save King George!

HUZZAH!!!

...as Bill Shakespeare said in Hamlet,

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

Fitz, I believe that you're up now!


Obi, did you ever take psychology? One thing we studied was that when someone continually makes, uh, outbursts about a particular subject, it indicates a repressed desire to do just the opposite of what they say. Hence, she is very much taken with the French, and has a desperate desire to be French herself. But until she accepts that and deals with it, I am afraid she will never be a peace with herself! Sad, I know, but what can one do?

I am pleased that I managed to meet your expectations, Obi.

I'm sure that his response will have something to do with happiness at the chance to oblige me... Fran-say firing squads at Fort Carillon... and so on.

And to that I would say.......

And please let me assure you that is not a kiss! That is the closest I could come to blowing a raspberry!

LOL

That's too funny!
Wilderness Woman Posted - June 12 2008 : 7:28:29 PM
You mean like this, Obi?

Hummmph. I would rather die than be forced to watch my favorite movie of all time, and have to hear that nasal, pinched-nose, rapid-fire, nonsensical, idiotic-sounding Fran-say talk coming out of the mouth of my Nathaniel! Die, I tell you!

I know not what course others may take, but as for me.... give me English, or give me Death!!!



So... how was that?
Obediah Posted - June 11 2008 : 11:20:40 PM
Ooh boy -- I can hardly wait for WW's reply!

Hmmm, something new to try! You're giving me wicked ideas for movie night next Saturday night!
