Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I feel I should know more but Quebecois films rarely travel to English Canada.

I knew you'd have some though. How about singers that aren't Céline Dion?

Roch Voisine, that Lara woman....that's about it.

And Mitsou! Even if she's a "journalist" now.

Okay, Roch Voisine is from New Brunswick and apparently Lara Fabian is originally from Belgium.

I'm using Roch Voisine, I refuse to include Lara Fabian. I am using Isabelle Boulay though.

By the way, I'm not just trying to torture you all, but rather trying to come up with lists of keywords for students to explore Francophone culture on the Internet.

Hey, megan, coincidentally enough, the LJ music comm audiography is doing a Francophilia theme this week, so you can find lots and lots of artists singing in French.

Does she sing in French though? I wanted to use Arcade Fire, but they don't have that much in French.

Also, speaking of Arcade Fire, thanks PC!
