Multilingualism: My chosen subject.

 The question I chose for cross-examination is Question 3. It is as follows;

"Examine and discuss how communication technology or multilingualism was used in the narrative of a highly acclaimed movie."

There are many subjects that can fill the examples that can fill the criteria. Lord of the Rings, featuring elf language as well as "black language" or the language of the orcs. We also fine examples for Inglorious Basterds as well as Master and Commander, Mission Impossible, Pink Panther and so many other movies that made good use of multiple languages that helped increase it's immersive experience as well as broaden it's range of audience. I am quite interested in doing one on The Mission Impossible series, since the spy-based genre with it's elements of espionage made good use of multiple languages as the characters go around in disguise whipping out multiple tongues to keep under cover. It has always been a very popular series of movies and is now my main subject of concern.

Either way, I hope to get more information on the effects of multilingualism and how it helps in the entertainment and art industry before I can conclude a solid case study.
