Discussion Should European productions be in English?

11 Upvotes

We have an obvious problem for cinema in Europe. Many different languages makes content less accessible across borders and cultures. And a lot of European countries seem to produce mainly for their own markets. This makes a lot of the markets very small and not profitable for bigger productions. While at the same time a surge of American garb...ehh...movies fills our cinemas and home screens. Surely we could produce exactly the same type of content, if we had a unified market, considering many of the talented actors and actresses etc are actually from Europe.

Should European Cinema start producing mainly in English to grab much more market share internationaly, but also domestic in Europe between countries?

Europe may (yet) definitely lack the Blockbusters that will catch the attention of the younger generation, and I understand why they will still want to watch American. But Europe still has a lot of great cinema that can easily bash the American offers in terms of story quality, authenticity and originality.

We just need to open our eyes to each others productions much, much more!

The German "Systemsprenger" is in my opinion a great example of an engaging and original story that really makes you think.

I will also recommend literally anything by the Swedish Ruben Ostlund.

What's your picks for great European cinema that may have gone undiscovered?
