I watch a lot of foreign language films, and read a lot of translated literature and I always try to imagine what I’m missing out on by not reading or taking in media in it’s original language.

In film, are there some significant mistranslations that has led non-native speakers of the language to interpret something different from the movie?

Thanks!

    Yeah, they went with that one for the official subtitles.

      Good share, the line he actually says is much more poetic.

      Do you know if that has an analog Chinese saying?

      Or is that a Chinese saying?
