A Big List of Italian Films/Movies with English Subtitles to Watch and Learn for Free

Whether you call them films or movies...

Check out an impressive compilation of Italian films with English subtitles on YouTube.

This list of free Italian movies was compiled by YouTube user #tdebbie2002 and is an incredibly accessible resource for Italian learners of all levels.

A Quick Note to Viewers

Some of the films in the list have been removed for a variety of reasons, but there are still lots there to work with.

A Few Suggestions on Using Italian Films for Learning

Queue up a film you want to see and listen closely to the Italian being spoken. Beginner and intermediate learners may wish to read along in English. Advanced and functionally fluent learners: stop looking at those subtitles unless you hit something you don't know!

Stop the film anytime when you come across some language byte that interests you. You can rewind and play again for many reasons, for example Italian listening comprehension and Italian accent improvement (if you speak back after the actors).

You can use films as a means to gain exposure to Italian language and Italian culture.

Teachers: Take a break for the day and show your students a Italian film.

Well, you don't actually have to take a break but if you need one, this is a great way.

You can also use these films as a launching point for discussion and plan lessons around the content.
