The Language Master(1997)
The Language Master Synopsis
Michel Thomas is one of the most brilliant language teachers in the world. His usual clients are movie stars and business leaders. This programme takes him to a Sixth Form College in London to work with school pupils, to test his claim that he can teach anyone a language in a week - with no reading, writing or homework. The film also explores his personal history - as a hero of the French Resistance during WW II. Nigel’s documentary with the 85 year old Michel Thomas was the first time that Thomas allowed his techniques to be made public. The subsequent success of the film transformed Thomas into a global celebrity and his method into one of the most highly regarded in the world of education.
The Language Master (1997) is a documentary film directed by Nigel Levy, released on March 23, 1997 with a runtime of 45m. It stars Michel Thomas, Woody Allen, Leo Marks and Anthony.
