It cannot be denied that the British love a good euphemism. And we especially like to beat around the bush, so to speak, when it comes to our film titles.
But when movie names are translated for international audiences, the foreign titles are often much more to the point.
This can lead to hilarious – and very honest – film titles.
Whether it’s The Full Monty becoming Six Naked Pigs or Fargo turning into a Mysterious Murder in Snowy Cream, we’ve compiled a list of the funniest movie title translations.
