Jodie Foster dubs herself into French as does Kristin Scott Thomas, Rupert Everett does most of the time. The reason there is so much dubbing in France is because your general French public will not go and see a film subtitled - crikey! Do you realise they would have to read a subtitle and films are for entertainment!!!!!!!!
