Learn from Movie Clips

April 10, 2008

Even a mediocre movie often has the brilliant scenes, like this one in the movie about singer Johnny Cash, Walk the Line. The scenes are memorable usually because the dialogues or the monologues strike a chord. Besides, they are the great materials for training your listening comprehension.

Several websites offer movie clips, but WingClips.com does the best job for learning purpose. The scenes they chose have the inspirational theme, and can be searched easily by the keywords. Each clip has a brief summary of the scene, along with the plot outline of the movie. With the background information, you have an easier time to understand the dialogue.

Unfortunately, the movie clips at WingClips.com come with no transcripts. However, if you watch the clip repeatedly enough, you may not need the transcript anyway.
