Transcription du texte

Mon film préféré est assez vieux. Il s’intitule La Discrète. C’est un film français du réalisateur Christian Vincent sorti en 1990.
C’est l’histoire d’un homme qui s’appelle Antoine et qui est écrivain. Il est triste et en colère parce que sa petite amie l’a quitté. Alors, il décide de faire quelque chose de cruel pour se venger. L’acteur principal s’appelle Fabrice Luchini, je l’adore car il joue très bien. Il est souvent très drôle dans les films qu’il fait. Ce que j’aime dans ce film, c’est qu’il y a une morale très claire à cette histoire, mais c’est aussi l’intelligence des dialogues.

Question 1. De quelle année date mon film préféré ?

Question 2. Pourquoi est-ce que j’aime Fabrice Luchini ?

Traduction

My favourite film is quite old. It’s called La Discrète. It’s a French film by director Christian Vincent, released in 1990.
It’s the story of a man called Antoine who is a writer. He’s sad and angry because his girlfriend has left him. So he decides to do something cruel to get his revenge. The lead actor is Fabrice Luchini; I love him because he’s a brilliant actor. He’s often very funny in the films he’s in.
What I love about this film is that there’s a very clear moral to the story, but also the intelligence of the dialogue.

Question 1. When was my favourite film released? It was released in 1990.

Question 2. Why do I love Fabrice Lucchini? Because he is a brilliant actor, and he is often funny.
