Hi.
Did you know that in Spain -and in many other countries, as far as I know- the titles of foreign films are usually changed?
¿Does it happen in the States, too? I would like to know the English title for Spanish films.
The point is I've been thinking about this and I'd like to start a game, if you like it.
We tell the name of a movie (in my case, the Spanish name) and its translation to English, and you may try to guess the original title.
For instance, Verano de corrupción (= summer of corruption) is the Spanish title for Apt Pupil;
La tienda (= the shop) is the Spanish title fot Needful Things.
Now you could try and guess what film Sonrisas y lágrimas (= smiles and tears) is. Clue: Julie Andrews.
And Con faldas y a lo loco (= wearing skirts and acting crazy) Clue: Jack Lemmon.
