Dubbed foreign films vs subtitle.
“Babbette’s Feast” seen in both versions.
Subtitle was definitely the winner. The subbed version at times was indiscernible as to what was actually said.
Granted, some of the action film is missed (reading those subtitles, you know) There are times when it is felt English/American movies would fare much better with subtitles Especially the English movies. LOL they speak funny over there! :-)
Once, I saw the first few minutes of a pay per view movie with subtitles. Some of the words in the movie sounded familiar--not enough to understand, but enough to make me want to figure out the language. A few minutes later, I did figure it out. It was English, a Scottish dialect. I did not pay to watch the movie; I should be able to watch a movie in English without subtitles.
