What are the classic English teaching films?

1 Ten classic movies that beginners must watch when learning English

1. The Dark Hour

The Dark Hour tells the story of how British Prime Minister Winston Churchill ordered to retreat and lead the people to out of the dark when he took office, which can be said to be the best supplement to another hot movie Dunkirk.

The film lineup is extremely strong: the director joe wright directed Pride and Prejudice, the screenwriter wrote The Theory of Everything, and the photographer filmed Angel Loves Beauty, playing Churchill's Gary Oldman, and he is recognized as the seed of the best actor in this year's Academy Awards.

suggestion: Churchill is known as one of the people who have mastered the largest number of English words in history (more than 12,), and language is his most powerful weapon. The exquisite diction, classic and beautiful British accent, and Odeman's extremely high restoration of the famous "Churchill Speech" are all worth watching again and again.

2. Youth

can be called a "masterpiece" film. The plot is very simple, telling the growth process of a boy from 6 to 18. Different from ordinary movies, the film was played by two actors, big and small. It took 12 years to shoot and all the actors did not change. You can truly feel the passage of time and regain familiar memories in the details of the times.

In the 72nd Golden Globe Awards, there were three awards, namely, Best Film in Drama, Best Director and Best Supporting Actress.

suggestion: the language of the film is very distinctive. The daily narrative dialogue runs through, occasionally jumping out of speculation and philosophy. For oral English learning, such a simple and real multi-dialogue film close to the life scene is the best choice.

3. bridge of spies

See how an ordinary person changes a country's diplomacy. The film is adapted from the true story of American lawyer Donovan, who was involved in the storm between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, but successfully realized the prisoner exchange between the two countries.

Director Spielberg said that when he first saw this event, he thought it was a movie, so he stopped the preparation of Dream Blowing Giant and filmed bridge of spies.

suggestion: the contrast between standard American English and Russian English in the film is worth seeing. For English learning, slow and standard English in school is almost impossible to meet in real life. People in different countries speak English with different accents. This film is a good example.

4. Paddington Bear 2

A warm family movie. Paddington Bear tells the story of a little bear from the Peruvian jungle who lives in an ordinary house in London. It won everyone's love with its innocence, and also changed the indifferent living conditions of people around it. This one tells the story of a bear who was framed and imprisoned and went through twists and turns to clear his name.

Not to mention the cute little bear Paddington, how many jokes he made, a small story, but it is exquisite and perfect, like a handicraft, which can reflect the tradition of English drama.

suggestion: Bear is very popular in Britain, and it is a good topic for chatting and breaking ice. In addition, there are various British accents in the film. Among them, hugh grant plays the villain, and one person plays seven paragraphs with English accents of different genders, different classes and different identities, which is very amazing.

5. The Great Mrs. Mather

The play is set in the United States in the 195s. The rich and beautiful woman Bai married her husband of suitable family and became a wealthy lady with peace of mind. However, because her husband cheated, she finally left home and became a talk show queen.

Here you can see the retro flavor in Mad Men, the perfect skills in Bankrupt Sisters, and the rise of women's thoughts. After the broadcast, Amazon has booked two seasons, which is undoubtedly a dark horse this winter.

suggestion: the language of talk show comes from life, and it also reflects the diverse culture of the United States. If you are interested in talk shows or want to be an advanced English learner, this drama is a good choice.
