    You don’t watch Troy and think it’s odd the characters are speaking English.

    I get it. But movies that try to be realistic get extra points from me. Props to Apocalypto for having the actors speak in Yucatec Maya. (even though the movie and director have problems in other ways.)

      Nothing I love more than multilingual movies where different groups speak different languages.

      Language barriers (and overcoming them) is such a huge part of everyday life for much of the world’s population.
