What makes a good movie?

와! 방금 봤던 영화는 내 인생 영화가 될 것 같아.
哇! 刚才看的电影好像是我人生中的最佳电影。

동감이야. 특히 남자 주인공이 여자 주인공을 
그리워하는 장면의 표정 연기는 절대 잊지 못할 거야. 
我也这么想。尤其是男主角怀念女主角场面的那个表情演技, 难以忘记呀。
 
배우들 대사도 매우 훌륭했어. 벌써 영화 다시 보고 싶다.
演员们的台词也特别出色。已经想再看一遍这部电影了。

Dans ce podcast, je vous explique deux expressions bien connues des français :
Tu es un Harpagon !
Tu es un Dom Juan.
Ces expressions sont des antonomases. Une antonomase, c'est une figure de style qui consiste à donner un sens à un nom propre, et ainsi en faire un nom commun.

Vous pouvez regarder ces deux pièces de théâtre de Molière dans les liens suivants :

Vocal clarity is all about making your voice sound clean, expressive, and easy to understand. It starts with strong articulation and enunciation—making sure each word is crisp and pronounced clearly. Breath support, especially from the diaphragm, helps maintain vocal strength and steadiness so your voice doesn’t fade or waver.

Resonance is another big piece of the puzzle. Using different areas like your chest, nasal passages, or head for tone placement can give your voice richness and projection. To keep your sound open and flexible, it's essential to release tension in your jaw, tongue, and lips. Gentle warm-ups and stretches can help with that.

Pitch control and expressive intonation ensure your voice doesn’t sound monotone or dull. Along with that, pacing and rhythm make a huge difference—speaking or singing with intention, and not too fast, helps your audience catch every word.

If you're using a microphone, knowing how to position yourself and control your volume makes a big difference. And of course, the secret ingredient to all of this is consistent practice. Recording yourself, getting feedback, or even working with a coach (me) can help you refine your sound over time.
