Hi all,
First time poster.

I have a quick question on Once. Ive written the question in white below as it contains a spoiler (pls use select to read it).

What did Magrita's say to Glenn's character when he asked her in Czech if she still loves her husband?

Ah I love challenges like this.

After a bit of googling, I can tell you she said "Miluji te", which means "I love you".

Wow thanks, your googling skills are better than mine - I couldnt find the answer anywhere! That answer is pretty significant to the whole film. Thanks again.

I went trawling the internet after watching the film out find out what she said

I thought the meaning was pretty heavily implied in the context of the scene.

Yes, possibly, but if you dont speak Czech you are making an assumption (which in my experience isnt always right). I also thought she might have said something like "I dont know".

Ah... I did have a Czech girlfriend for a while... while she certainly never said those words to me... I guess I did learn a good bit about the nuances of how Czech women act.
