I'm honestly a bit of a snob about that. The original voice track is going to be the most authentic and any other option is to do the movie a disservice.

Here's a few weird foregin movies with subtitles that I think are excellent, somehow, despite the fact that they don't speak English/Danish like the rest of us, the weirdos.

Last Life in the Universe/Ruang rak noi nid mahasan

Combat Girls/Kriegerin

A Woman in Berlin/Eine Frau in Berlin (also has another English title seemingly designed to capitalize on the success of Downfall/Der Untergang, namely "The Downfall of Berlin: Anonyma", which is just a weirdly convoluted title that makes no sense.)

The Great Beauty/La Grande Bellezza

Of course there's more, but the came to mind first.
**** German TV (and cinemas) so much. Dubbed **** is the worst.
