I don't know why other lesbians find her attractive. She has a nose that could cut glass.
But she was cute when she was a freckle-faced kid.

She didn’t want to go to Westlake or Marlborough.

My sister went to school with her — Le Lycee Francais de Los Angeles. I studied in Bordeaux France for a year whilst junior at UCLA.
Loved it. Never forgot my French and never will.

What was the point of this interview? To show off her French?

What the igorant OP does not fathom is that people who speak a language fluently never forget it. Foster speaks flawless French.

R21: She remembered her being down to earth, just like any other student there. They didn’t really know or pay attention to her. Jodi was pleasant. Her French was good .

She is beautiful there.
I was impressed with her French. But she did get an early start with it (childhood).
I learned 3 different languages in HS and college. I've forgotten most of it.
She was also really nice-looking here, talking about Taxi Driver. Looks like she's got smoker's lines around her top lip.

Thanks r24, I love that interview. Jody comes across as so stable, smart and confident. And her smirks and smiles when she tells her stores is so infectious. She really is photogenic.

[quote]What the igorant OP does not fathom is that people who speak a language fluently never forget it.
That's not true. If you never use it you become less fluent, and of course lose all the slang that is a big part of speaking a current language, because the slang itself goes out of style. The language itself should come back to you pretty well if you're immersed in it after a long period of disuse, because the words and rules sit somewhere in the back of the brain, but you definitely won't be able to just rush into fluency after a decade or two of disuse.
If, however, you have the money to visit France on the regular, as Foster does, and you have a professional reason for speaking it, as Foster does, it shouldn't be much trouble to stay fluent.

No, Rose, she switched to German.

R27 all you did was elaborate my point that obviously a fluent speaker never loses the language. Being rusty is not "losing the language".

R29, if being able to speak it poorly and haltingly is "never to have forgotten it", then you're right. It doesn't mean anything in practice, but whatever floats your boat.
If needing the subtitles to understand a movie in the language, but being able to go, "That's not what he just said" from time to time is "still being able to speak it", then sure. Because that's where I am, thirty years after once being very fluent, but never having had the chance to practice it since.

Here's a French teacher critiquing Hollywood celebs speaking French.
From Bradley Cooper, to Timmy Chalamet, to Penelope Cruz.
I can't really understand what she's saying, but you can get the gist of it just by reading her "corrections" that she posts on the screen.

Viggo Mortensen seems to be pretty good at speaking French, as well.
