The 13th warrior was the first time I remember seeing Viking culture reflected in a "big" movie where I could actually understand what the native vikings were saying.
And I've always enjoyed the transition from when he goes to understanding them and all of a sudden they all speak english.
"I've learned by listening to your filthy mouth.." or however that line goes
As a Scandinavian I think about this scene a lot. I don't know why haha.
