Luc Besson's The Big Blue (1 Viewer)

[Jodee]

Besson's The Last Battle/Le Dernier Combat DVD is being released in R1 on 8/21-- next week!
I ordered it sight unseen as I love all of Besson's work and I'm looking forward to receiving the disc.

At the risk of looking like a newbie or idiot I have to ask... What is the original language for this movie? Is it French? Is it English? I have a feeling Jean Reno did the dub for the alternate language so it throws me off... Rosanna is annoying in any language... well?
Should I be watching it in French or English?

 

[Rob Tomlin]

The original language is English. Besides, I doubt very seriously that Rosanna Arquette could speak French!

Anyone know why they didnt include the 90 minute or so documentary that was on the japanese laserdisc. Im glad I taped that, even though most of it is in french language.

For what it's worth
I campaigned for five years to get this released on LD and failed. We then moved our effort to DVD - and bravo!
My 2nd son is called Luc and i have a tattoo on my back of the single dolphin.
Guess you could say I'd recommend this film.
Glad you all like it

Actually, I think that Roseanna Arquette's performance is just fine. I think that the people who are annoyed, are annoyed at the character - I don't think that it is a problem with her acting. I think that Besson chose her for the role, precisely because she has that quality, that matches the character - who is annoying.
And, I think the additional scenes with her and her roommate, found in this Director's Cut, help to clarify her character.

Ah, didn't notice that before. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll be sure to use that next time.
