What are some good movies in French to try to get some French?
I am an American (we hope) will be attending at McGill University in Montreal. I've never taken French, so do not expect to be fluent in French movies, of course, but I'm hoping to pick up some vocabulary and phrases and stuff. What are some good movies for that? and if there are movies that are known for the variety that Quebecois French, titles will be welcome, because I understand that make it different.

There are obvious questions competition in the investigation of this case between the Ontario Provincial Police and the Surete du Quebec, but neither party really wants the case. Finally, decide to work on it together with two officials of being prudish Martin Ward, the "carbon police", and turbulent David Bouchard, the "police bad. "Beyond the differences in organization and language, Ward and Bouchard have different work styles clash. Despite their differences, soon learn that they must work together to achieve their ultimate goal of finding the murderer.
