Yeah that's why I was a bit doubtful. Why did he say he has to improve his accent then? Weird...

It is very impressive and admirable of Michael to support fellow European film industries [emoji2] One very positive aspect of Europe is how quick and easy it is to get from one country to another - rarely more than a 2 hour flight!
Remember Alicia Vikander who learnt Danish just for A Royal Affair, how cool.
I definitely think some people have definitely and aptitude for languages. [emoji1316]
And btw north-European people are pretty good and study languages very very well.
I guess for the parts of the film where he will converse in German...but I imagine the bulk of the film will be in English.
And grammar too. Some languages are very particular on grammar while some are not.
My friend are learning Arab in Qatar - extremely not easy - you know the characters already gives hard time
True - apart from the natives of the U.K. And Ireland!
Cool! Was he invited by a friend, right?
I loved seeing him there [emoji57] and he looked so sharp[emoji92]
You should hear how Italian and French people learn foreign languages. They have to, cos it's impossible to speak Italian all over the world and have convos with people, but... Omgosh [emoji23]
Thought he met some of the ministers eg culture minister there via snowman ? So it is not surprised he was invited by the people who related to the event
Wouldn't be surprised if it was Jakob who invited him - they worked together on the Snowman and Jakob was hosting the Amanda Awards!
There are always jokes about French people don't like people who speak English to them mainly due to historical factors. My friend experienced this and finally he was pissed off and talked non English ( dialect) and the shopkeeper finally addressed him.
I see . Jakob was that guy in the pic - they teased each other for not winning the awards.
I think it's fair to say there are old rivalries between the English and the French....and they are least likely to accommodate speaking in English in France! Fair enough - we should make more of an effort!
Yep - some friendly banter!
I see Michael gave the award to director Roar Uthaug - Alicia's Tomb Raider director [emoji3]
For Italians is different. In Italy they like English people and there's not any rivalry but they simply don't learn languages well. It's a fact... Then, it's difficult to get rid of Italian accent, it's too strong, especially the southern one [emoji28]
But it's kinda exotic for British people, right?
Btw I know we're going too off topic, but the discussion took me away, too interesting!
Sorry
I have never heard Michael speaking French -but I found it super funny when he made jokes about French people refusing to speak English and pretending they don't understand it at Fallon's- and it would be cool [emoji23]
