Man On Wire
Watching Man On Wire, there were some French speakers with subtitles,
and some with French accents who were somewhat hard to understand. Henry
now thinks he knows French, because he understood the ones talking with
a French accent.
At dinner, I told David about the part where the NYPD were threatening to bring in a helicopter to pluck him off the wire. After an accomplice on the roof talked to the police, he yelled something in French out to the wirewalker and he came in without much further delay. Henry said, "I can probably translate it! What did he say?" (as if I would be able to reproduce the French I heard earlier in the documentary)
