Question
Loved the movie Prey and I have a question about it.
French is not my first language and I'm not fluent in it, but the french that the poachers spoke seemed a little off to me.
Was it my imagination? If not, was there a reason to be off?
Answer
From gizmodo:
Trachtenberg: And something that I’m really excited about, I will say, is that there are no subtitles at all in the movie. We are very linked to [the main character] Naru and her experience of the story. And so even when those French bird trappers show up, it’s as foreign to us as it is to her, unless you speak French. But even still if you speak French, because they’re speaking such a very specific version of French, it’s not going to be cogent to most folks. So I think language still plays a very specific role even in the original release of the movie.
So it was an artistic choice to have a specific version of french.
