(English Subtitles)Timothée Chalamet SPEAKING FRENCH!! - Quotidien 1/18/2019 

when you're bilingual the most annoying thing is when you know the perfect word that fits the sentence but it's in another language and not the one you're talking in

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT HE COULDNT GET SEXIER HE SPEAKS FRENCH

I feel like he changes personality or mannerisms a little when he speaks French and as a bilingual person I relate 100%

You can tell he was raised a native speaker, but probably rarely uses it (and probably not much from his teenage years onward) so he's looking for words. Pronunciation is great.

I just wanted to hear him speak French, and I ended up staying for the entire interview.

1:55 "idk man" "Je ne sais pas... monsieur" 😂

My parents : “why do you want to learn French” Me : “ shows them this video”

French audiences are so quiet. In America they would be laughing at every comment.

Like a lot of bilingual kids, he speaks Frenglish.

I don’t know man- me in French class

It's breathtaking watching an audience listen intensively without laughing every third word.

As someone who only speaks one language, I want to tell anyone who knows other languages, to be so, so proud and speak it as much as possible, even if you're not confident or rusty. It's fantastic and so cool!

9:25- *realizes he’s staring directly into the camera* *smiles awkwardly and gulps water*

He's ADORABLE speaking English. He's OVERLOADINGLY CUTE speaking French.

He spoke about drug addiction in a very mature and compassionate way. It was beyond promoting a movie. It was done with perspective and seriousness. Glad to know there are actors that are well trained to answer interviews well. So many actors are just so fed up with celebrity status that they never take interviews seriously. They just answer whatever.

I love how his voice changes between languages! French is definatly much deeper.

I don't understand anything he's saying but I could listen to him speak French all day

Although he makes a lot of little mistakes his accent is IMPECCABLE

I really love how good this interviewer is. He’s letting timothee make mistakes and correctly him politely without constantly interrupting him, I think he’s using slightly simpler words to help timothee and he’s being so charming! I should watch French television more if interviews are like this 😂

as a bilingual (french and english) I feel his struggle in remembering certain words or phrases in french, i also pepper my convos w english word lol but am mad impressed he did this interview, gives me confidence to speak french around more people than just my fam!!

I would learn French for the sole purpose of understanding him

Timothee should be in a French film

Randomly stumbled on this, and clicked to hear him speak French… ended up staying the whole interview. As a multilinguist, I feel his pain when you can’t remember the words from one language to the next. But he did a fantastic job. His responses are very eloquent and well thought out. Never saw the appeal of him before, but now I’m a little persuaded. There’s definitely a charm about his character.

Everyone talking about his french, but his answers and the info he gives is amazing

I consider this video as “studying” for my french exam tomorrow Edit: it actually went pretty well lol

He seems so awkward but confident it’s confusing but i love it

I love that he took the time to say that he was portraying a human being that has an addiction, not an "addict" as the interviewer was saying. Timothee is such a good person. ❤

I remember that I started learning French one year ago and I wanted to understand this interview soooo bad just because I love him lol. Now I can understand all he is saying and I’m just so happy

this interviewer is soooo good, he doesnt continually interrupts, but prompts just when needed, he really listens and comes across as interested in the subject matter too, excellent !

I only understood 2% of this, duolingo you did me dirty

The French audience listens to him attentively, not laughing at every word coming out of his mouth. Quite a mature audience there!

The host is a sharp, quick-minded man who predicts Timothee's statements quickly.

If Timmy taught a French class, we would all be paying attention 🤣

His french is better than the last time but he was super nervous... it was cute.

I feel like he is this generation's Leonardo DiCaprio

This is one of my favourite Timothee interviews! Not just because he's speaking French but because I love the fact that he talks about drug addiction in such an empathetic and profound way. I think a lot of people assume drug addicts have "brought it on themselves" but I agree with him saying that there is a lot of pain the world and there aren't easy solutions, but bringing awareness and understanding is the first step.

To be honest it is so weird to listen to people who grew up multilingually cause when they say a phrase in another language they also say it in a perfect accent and you be like how is this creature even possible. Edit: It is so fascinating to see many of you in the comment section theorise me as an American and that I have never met a European nor an Asian in my life and should respect them more. I have decided to join this discussion not because I am offended but to remind you that by stating these stuffs you made a presupposed notion that frankly stereotypes Americans and perhaps generalised unfounded claims of English speakers that could offend others in that position. I am sadly, to all your dissappointment, am not an American, and if I was, nothing is wrong with that either. I have lived all around Asia and Europe and was lucky enough in my life to speak 5 languages. I'm saying this not to boast, as some people in the comment section feel absolutely inclined to do so, but to show that this comment was made simply out of pure awe and respect to all who have been blessed enough to receive the gift of understanding the world in more than 1 language. Also to those who are relentless in their pursuit to study another, because I know how hard it is to learn them. So please be mindful, spread love and not hate! ❤

Tim: speaks french Me: 🤰🏽

he literally looks like an angel

It's so funny when his accent go's from French to English in just a snap like 0.001 seconds 😂😂

As I speak both English and French, I love to listen how he freely mixes those languages, like when he says: "être jeune et whatever" ;)

i only came here for the “flex on my ex” part, but ended up watching the whole thing. i swear he’s addicting.

As a French teacher this is very helpful for my students: Nice and clear, with "real-life" examples of the translanguaging that happens all the time... "comme on dit en anglais...", asking for clarification, et ainsi de suite.

I love him. Everything he said was just so beautiful. He seems like a really empathic person.

i’m sad that i took three years of french and don’t understand a single freaking thing

His father is French and he spent every summer with his grandparents in southern France...hence why he is fluent-ish.

As someone who was addicted to opiates for 22 years I can personally verify it is pure hell and emotional pain. It's living in a world full of light but hiding in the darkest corners. No hope, no dreams, no feelings. You're completely numb and yet at the same time in so much misery. You wake up every day wondering why you woke up at all. I have a little over a year clean now and I'm still trying to pick up all the broken pieces. They say "one day at a time" no!!! For me it's one minute at a time. To all those still struggling with addiction I can't tell you that you can do it. You can stop. You already know that but what I will say is when the pain gets great enough I hope you put the shovel down, don't keep digging till you get to 6 feet! Love to all those sober and not sober!!!

His beauty literally hurts...

Nobody : Me at 3am : k lets just pretend this is my second language

The way he keeps slipping into English tho

Being half French myself I think his French is very impressive, especially his accent and pronunciation. I sadly had other languages I had to learn in school so I'm stuck with a more childish vocabulary and grammar but this kind of makes me want to pick the language up again and improve.

what started as being interested in hearing Timothée speak in French, has become an insightful and informative interview about the drug epidemic. I am filled with respect, awe, and soberness for him taking initiative in sharing his perspective on the issue and his actions in bringing awareness and compassion to those fallen victim to drugs as a false solution.

he is so polite. he asked if it was offensive to ask if something was a village or a city I AM CRYING

22:22 this is the part you’re here for.

The french language is so beautiful I listened throughout the whole video without reading the subtitles 😭

Listening to Timmy speak in French took 80% of my stress away. Edit: I came back to this comment two years later and I see a lot of people agree 😂

He could be Loki’s little brother

Timothy... if you ever find this... thank you for giving recovering addicts a voice. I found Timothy as an actor by watching Beautiful Boy - and felt he portrayed addiction just as it is. He did addiction 'justice'. It IS difficult to RECOVER. We DO NOT want to be addicted. We ARE trying to get better. That film is an amazing piece of work.

I come back to this video every once in a while to see how much my French has improved

5:16 timmy: french Timmy : *OVERDOSES*

You know what I like about French talk shows?? They actually talk

So like an year ago, i found this video and got devastated by how poor my french is and after an year of crying and screaming, thinking of quitting, now I could hear it well and clear. Wow I am proud of myself. And I know my french teacher would be aussi. Another motivation for marching forward. Thanks Timmy lol.

Quand il a dit " ce n'est pas insultant?" M'a vraiment eu. Il est têlement respectueux et humble . Je l'adore ❤

3:03 TIMMY’S FACE WHEN THE INTERVIEWER CALLS US “Chalamaniacs” OMFG BAHAHAHAH

2:59 when timothee said 'i have no confidence at all' , lil timmy tim didnt feel that.

This interview & this movie just spoke to me on so many different levels, it's insane

Love that they let him talk about his art and the topics of the movie instead of typical celebrity journalism!

24:32 OMG THAT LOOK THO, HE'S THE HOTTEST MAN ON THIS EARTH

2:58 “I have no confidence” My heart just SHATTERED AND IM A MESS because you can see that he really feels that way by how he interviews :( he’s THE best and needs to know it! I can’t wait for the day he realizes all he has done

9:25 AAAAAAHH NOT THOSE EYES LOOKING INTO MY SOUL !!!! 🤯🔥🔥🔥

This is the most articulate and confident I've seen him on a talk show. Most of the time (in America) he acts very shy and a little goofy. It's very nice to see this side of him, more like the brilliant actor we see on screen. And I'm so jealous he speaks fluent French.

3:47 : "parce que vous êtes beau" ("because you are handsome"). The interviewer is so embarrassed after this and so is Timothée haha

him asking how to say things is the cutest thing ever

Tim: speaks French Me who dosnt understand but still loves it:🤰🏾

okay, so I have to continue my duolingo lessons, so I can travel to France, meet this guy, and kiss him on the Eiffel Tower, and complete my fanfiction

If he could just speak French for every movie he makes I swear I would be fluent in French by now

as a trilingual speaker I can attest to the fact that you CAN have a perfect accent in multiple languages but that our vocabulary is limited due to the fact that we must be able to say 1 word or phrase in many different ways

Wow the american english accent among the French accent is really quite jarring and impressive. The fluid transition between languages and accents is very impressive

Stunning eloquence. Informative young man, as to the level of educational & vocational & knowledgeable skill clear & present.❤️

i love that he actually forgot how to speak the language hahahaha

This is why my expectations on men are so high

I watched The King last night & I instantly fell in love with Timothee & now am watching his every interview

What a beautiful film, heart breaking and real, outstanding performances by all the cast but man did Timothee and Steve make me cry.. gorgeous young man well deserved success and so humble.. 🙏🌹❤️✌️

It’s funny when he’s talking and then goes full on English like “overdoses”

now I realize how poor my understanding of French is :)

Magnifique! C'est beau! Felicitaciones! Congratulations to Timothee!

Steve Carrell is incredibly relatable as a father struggling to find the right key to open the cage of addiction that has stolen his son. Timothee Chalumet’s performance is exquisite. Well worth watching.

he seems so much less awkward when he’s speaking french

he is soo hot...even when I dont understand a word hes saying

I'm learning French and I know how hard it can be to screw up infinitives and certain verbs etc. as a native english speaker. He's done a great job here

He’s stressed af, but he did a great job❤️

Y’all gotta go to 23:46

FOUR YEARS OF FRENCH AND A LEBANESE DAD FINALLY CAME IN HANDYY

I love him SO much. He... will truly be the greatest star of his generation. So talented. He handled this interview really well. Although.. wasn't excited about how the interviewer interrupted him often Anyone else noticed this?

He somehow seems more confident when speaking French! When he does interviews in English he expresses way more timidly.. has anyone else noticed? lol

3:52 OH please tell me he wasn't attempting to do a fist bump..CRIIIIIIIIIIIINGE

22:21 i said thank youuuuu

Timothee has really good insight and can express it wonderfully. Bravo!

He's such a delight to listen to. I can also relate being bilingual. He's done so well in this interview. To do a whole interview where he can be understood by the host and audience. Bravo.! Il a une personalite très charmante ! ❤️

I felt the pain in his laughter at 18:02 That’s the laugh I do when I tell my mum something funny from a video and she doesn’t laugh
