This is my 3rd post after abandoning the previous 2.
My first post was rather flippant. I drafted out something like: The English don't mind subtitles...providing they're in English! Which I thought was an unfair response to your question adidasss.
Then I wrote that, I personally didn't mind subtitles at all. Especially if the film was worth watching. While being true I don't think it's what you wanted to hear.
In Britain's case, generally speaking, we probably have a similar attitude to the Americans (if what you say is true). In that we tend to avoid films with subtitles like the plague.
The amount of times I've heard a collected groan of disapproval when one comes on the TV bears witness to that.
It's a shame really cos there's some great films that'll never get the praise they deserve in this country because of that attitude.
