Uniquement en VF malheureusement, ce qui arrive hélas de plus en plus fréquemment avec les replays d'Arte... (lors de la diffusion sur la chaîne, il y avait bien la VO)

Et quelques conseils :
- ne regardez pas la bande annonce
- ne lisez rien sur le film
- ne lisez pas les avis sur les réseaux sociaux, qui ont tendance à divulgâcher une scène clé du film.

Merci.

Funny to see that French uses "profanateurs" to translate Invasion of the Body Snatchers. A term that would be more like "defilers" or "desecrators" in English. Fitting for real-life grave robbers or corpse-snatchers, but it rather loses the point of the unusual new meaning of the English title IMO.

Blame it on a French translator who translated the title of the first movie (Invasion of the Body Snatchers, 1956) as "L'Invasion des profanateurs de sépultures" 😅

Which was reduced to "L'Invasion des profanateurs" for the 1978 film. A little better, but still not a good translation.

Yeesh, that's an absolutely terrible translation. Completely missing the point!

gamrok.bsky.social•20 days ago

One hypothesis is that the translator may have confused this film with another: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_R%C3%A9cup%C3%A9rateur_de_cadavres

When the novel was translated into French (in 1977), the title was "Graines d'épouvante" (Seeds of terror). But because of the film, the title was changed in subsequent editions. Today, the French translation retains the English title Body Snatchers.

atmcashpoint.bsky.social•20 days ago

That other film uses the traditional sense of "body snatcher". But given its very different application here, it raises the question if the person who decided on the French title had even seen the film!

atmcashpoint.bsky.social•20 days ago

Of course "récupérateur de cadavres" wouldn't work in this case either, since the French specifies "cadaver", rather than English's more ambiguous "body" which allows for the new reinterpretation.

I'm actually tempted to translate it as "L'Invasion des sosies", or "Invasion of the Doppelgangers"...
