Where could I find a helpful website to watch French videos with subtitles? I'm sorry
if this question has already been asked on this forum... but I need to improve my french listening comprehension and I've come to the conclusion that the only way to do it is by watching movies with French subtitles. I try to listen to French podcasts quite frequently, but it's not enough to make progress because I cannot understand all the words that are said, so I'm going to start watching movies with French subtitles. I've used websites such as Coursera, Ted, etc, to improve my English listening comprehension thanks to subtitles, but I'm not able to find any appropriate website to do the same with French. All the videos I watch in French are without subtitles. Could someone recommend to me an appropriate website? Thank you!

check out FluentU and Yabla, both have French and are designed for language learners with a bunch of features.
There's also Netflix (I'm not sure if they have this in Spain). You can watch movies meant for native French speakers; I would imagine that many of them have subtitles in Spanish, but definitely English. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

This question comes up very often, so we made a Wiki page on French movies and series with accurate subtitles. It's not too extensive or up to date but it could get you started. Various members including me have had success improving listening comprehension by following the transcripts of dubbed series like The Simpsons and Buffy.
Netflix is a good option if you can make it think you're accessing it from France, then you get a bunch of series and films with French subtitles. For example it has all the seasons of a sitcom Fais pas ci, fais pas ça with French subs. I don't know whether you can sign up from Spain: it's not available there as a region but maybe you can sign up for another region, it's worth investigating. 3 persons have voted this message useful | |

Some more.
Gainsbourg - Vie Héroïque: This movie has extremely accurate subtitles. Better yet the timing is just as accurate. The best I've seen. The four Eric Rohmer movies in the series Contes des quatre saisons (Conte de printemps, Conte d'été, Conte d'automne, Conte d'hiver) have accurate subtitles, but the timing is off often. These movies have probably been published on DVD from multiple distributors. The ones I have are part of a complete DVD set of Eric Rohmer movies from a Chinese publisher. Some of the other movies in the set also had decent subtitles. Look on eBay for a complete box set  Edited by rlnv on 18 July 2015 at 6:13am 1 person has voted this message useful |
