"**** me"
Has anyone seen this film?
I know the IFC will be showing it shortly, but it was released in France a while ago and unfortunately I did not have the time to go see it.
Has anyone here seen it?
Opinions please.

[Sparkle]

i haven't seen the film, but does Blaise not mean Kiss?

[bugler]

'Arash', is the french for the f-word afaik

This is an excellant film,it's kind of a female natural born killers.
Some scenes are very funny but also some of it is a bit rough.Both of the female lead's are French porno star's and they showcase their talent's very well.I have only seen the Canadian dvd of this so hopefully I will be able to see it on the big screen.

Well, as far as I know Baiser means "kiss", it also means "to screw" and my interpretation of "baise moi" is "screw me".
When I originally heard about this film however, it was subtitled "**** me"

All that means is that I'm not too sure to be honest.

Aside from the argument over what the name means and the obvious controversial aspects of the film, I really wanted opinions on whether the film was worth seeing or not.

BJJ and global, could you expand on your comments please ?

Yeah I saw it here in Australia a week before they banned it like all the other countries.

Its got full on graphic violence and pron. you see everything.
It has a rape scene at the beginning which is quite disturbing, not the kind of film you would take someone to see on a first date.

I've never heard a direct translation of the title, I'm sure it's something like "Fu<k me" or "Rape me".

Baise in French means to lower.

Is it any good though ?

[Beruthiel]

the correct translation is 'fu*k me'

[Makaveli]

Yup it means ****.
I was just watching La Haine and at the very start Siad writes on the back of one of the SWAT vans "Siad, Baise La Police" translation in subtitles "Sayid f**k the police"

Yeah its worth seeing.

But being ex-p0rnstars, you'll notice the acting isnt the best.

.......

whether the film was worth seeing or not.

You're right:
un baiser: a kiss (noun)
baiser: to kiss or to screw (more accurate than ****)

As forthe film, I saw it, it's excellent. Well, I enjoyed it and I would advise you to go.

However French Slang often translate badly in Slang English and the subtitles from La Haine are far from accurate.

But then again, there are a lot of subtleties that will never be translatable in any languages, and when you see English speaking films translated in French, the biggest drama often becomes a comedy...
