French Movie Index

← languages Overview

  1. Index of Movies by Year
  2. Alphabetical Movie Index

The table below lists a yearly breakdown of information about movies using the French language. The Share is a percentage based on total worldwide box office of the movies using the specified language relative to the combined worldwide box office of all movies in the listed year. Please note that movies that use multiple languages count for the share of each language, and the language information in our database is incomplete. These factors will typically cause the share percentages in a specific year not to add up to 100%. Click on the year number for a list of all the films released that year. Click on the movie name to see information on the individual film.

Note: Since we are still actively researching languages, we consider this chart to be in beta mode. While we make every effort to collect all available data, there are inevitably omissions and errors. Please help us by sending corrections to corrections@the-numbers.com.
