Tom Hardy speaks French - again!

A clip from Le Grand Journal in Cannes, May 2012, where Tom Hardy speaks a little French again.

Here's a translation of the exhange:
This is your first time in Cannes, right?

Yes, it's my first time.

Did Shia & Jessica give you any advice on how to behave, how you walk the red carpet, what you do at night?

Yeah, I'm not allowed to speak.

Yes, you are! Go on.

Well, like I said, I'm not allowed to speak, but I was to told to wear a suit, not to speak and to shave my beard. That's the advice I got.

You're English, Tom?

Yeah, I'm British.

You know the region a bit, the south of France, you've vacationed with your family here, you speak a little French?

[in French] Yes, I speak a little French, but not very good. [in English] I used to come to the south of France when I was a kid. Not here [I don't know which villages he mentions... Montbezier?].

I LOVE HOW THE FRENCH TRANSLATOR WAS TRANSLATING FRENCH INTO FRENCH. ICONIC.

Tom "Hardly" speaks French!!!

[samcollends]

It seems that he can understand French but he can *hard-ly* speak French...

0:45 you can literally see the girl go like "Oh he speaks French :)" in the background lmao

[bernardv]

as a french, i can tell his french seems quite good, even if he's humble about it, sounds accurate and fluent(?)

[ChicagoMonsterPunk]

When he was at the Cannes film Festival, I actually spoke to him on the phone. My brother-in-law worked as a bodyguard and he quickly became a friend. I awkwardly tried to tell him that I loved him and that his performance in Bronson was awesome and he replied to me in French (that was unbelievable). That guy's fucking awesome.

Tom Hardy has the best looking ugly beard I've ever seen.

[katejones]

Tom being very shy; he speaks French fluently....

[ramirezrico]

LOL HE WAS SO NERVOUS - IT MADE ME uncomfortable

[redjemjamele]

He only said 3 words but his prononciation was on point

[DeanaJacksonFrazier]

He probably speaks it well, it is just when people put you on the spot and you haven't spoken it a while it can be difficult. Then there are native speakers who will criticize you because you can't speak it perfectly. English is my native language mais je peux bien comprendre la langue mais c'est difficile de la parler. So I understand- it sounded great from what I heard.

the woman in the background starts swooning when he speaks french

Tom Hardy is amazing. Every character pictured in his mind becomes perfection; from gestures, to his walk, voice, etc. He embodies & brings each character to life effortlessly. This is a REAL Oscar Winning actor. Perfect Lips, too. 💋

[datman]

All the girl's faces lit up when he spoke french xD

Том шикарный мужчина и неповторимый британский актер . Слышала, что он учился в очень хорошей школе, может эти знания оттуда?. А вообще он очень талантлив. Не удивлюсь, что он знает другие языки. Спасибо за эмоции талантливый мистер Харди ❤❤❤
