sure, it just didn't need them to be in English for the film to have the impact that it did. -- nm

Are you being this obtuse on purpose? Or does it come so easily to you that do you do it without even thinking about it? -- nm

He's saying that you could watch the movie in Swedish, and, without understanding a single word, the film would still be effective and impactful.

still be *as* effective? so like, i could either hear the script, or i couldn't, and identical takeaway?

I never suggested watching it on mute, if that's what you're saying. -- nm

Is the point, if I am correct, that the movie would work just as well as intended without any interpreted script, not knowing one word that was said?

well, considering this is the closest you've come so far to actually portraying my stated opinion with even the slightest bit of accuracy...

here's my analogy: people tend to not like watching movies in fullscreen, because they miss part of the intended shot.

except film is as much, if not more so, a visual medium as it is a literary one. The visuals should be just as effective in conveying meaning
