Arts and Entertainment
Cinema - If you want to go and see a film and think your French might not be quite up to following it then it may be possible to get to see a film which is originally in the English language and hasn't been dubbed - look for films which were filmed in English and which are marked VO which means it is the original version so will be in the original language. Click here to see the film listings for the French cinemas.
If you are not sure then when you are at the cinema ask a question like :
"Ce film est en anglais ?" "si (pronounced as in si of sift) feelm e-ton anglay ?", or,
"Ils parlent anglais dans ce film ?" "eel parl anglay don si (as in si of sift !) feelm"

We have found that the campsites described are very good but we find that it is difficult to find a campsite which has 100% of what you are looking for. Also one person may love a busy campsite with lots of activities while someone else may love a quiet campsite with a small swimming pool. Actually we tend to be the latter ! So what we have done is highlight the good points of the sites and maybe point out a few of what we have found as slightly negative points. However we strongly recommend that you make full use of as many internet sources as possible before deciding about your holiday, including other review sites and Google maps etc.
