A review on L'auberge Espagnol,
This review is from: L'Auberge Espagnole [DVD] [2003] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
The ERASMUS-SOCRATES scheme is where students have the oppurtunity to study abroad for a year - this film is the first to portray the legendary lifestyle that ERASMUS students have (and quite accurately). The film's sub-plot follows a Parisien student who decides to study in Barcelona for a year. His personal experiences give the film much of the substance, but much of the film also focuses upon the other people (mainly ERASMUS students) that he meets (and lives with) - their stereotypes brilliantly portrayed. One aspect making this film pretty unique is that the spoken language changes continuously from French to English to Spanish. Combined with serious aspects that come with leaving home for a year, are many comical parts too, making this film one to watch. And as it did for me, it will bring back many fond memories to all those people who did ERASMUS, reminding them of what was probably one of the best years of their lives...

A story of European integration,
By Chris M (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: L'Auberge Espagnole [DVD] [2003] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
L'Auberge Espagnol is a feel-good movie with a European flavour. Following the steps of a French student in Barcelona, the viewer is transported into the world of student living as part of the ERASMUS student exchange programme. The trials and tribulations of a group of students from various European backgrounds are genuinely portrayed as they spend a year in the beautiful Catalan city. Audrey Tautou, although the main face and name of the movie actually only plays a minor role. Nonetheless, this movie is recommended to anyone who would like to see European cinema with a youthful twist, as well as anyone interested to see how ERASMUS may broaden a student's horizons and promote a common feeling of unity amongst citizen members of the EU.

A must for every ERASMUS student,
By
This review is from: L'Auberge Espagnole [DVD] [2003] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
This film is a must for any ERASMUS student either past, current or prospective.As already mentioned, the film acurately portrays the steryotypes of the various nationalities, and with it being in three languages, and with a mix of so many cultures, it works for everyone. I just watched it (in french) the other night with two other english people, a german and a chetch, and we all loved it.
