Of course, I can’t go around mentioning the “Famous 4”. This is probably your best choice if you live outside of France. Unfortunately, not all movie trailers you will find on YouTube, Wikipedia or allocine.fr (see below) will be available for you to watch on Amazon, Netflix & Co. I’ve especially found that most French movies available on Netflix a...

Please be aware that I haven’t used any of these services myself, so I can’t make any guarantees. I just tried to pick the ones that seemed ser...
OCS offers a 7-day trial and then costs 9,99€ / month. It has a large selection of international movies.
