Amy Schumer's 'Trainwreck' Has Some Very Interesting Titles in Other Countries
Wowwwww.
As it turns out, the word "trainwreck" is pretty difficult to translate in other languages. (Or is it the idea of a messy but empowered woman that's so hard to grapple with?) Regardless, the 11 different international titles for Amy Schumer's debut film are hilarious and fascinating and maybe a little bit sad.
While some countries stuck closely to the train theme like Czech Republic's Derailment, some veered far off track. Like France, who opted for a more blunt approach.
Translated by Mashable, here's a list of alternative monikers the world has given Schumer's summer blockbuster.
Italy: 'A Disaster Girl'
Hungary: 'Disaster'
France: 'Crazy Amy'
Finland: 'Just the Night'
Germany: 'Dating Queen'
Czech Republic: 'Derailment'
Canada (French title): 'Hopeless Case'
Bulgaria: 'Total Damage'
Russia: 'A Girl Without Complexes'
Portugal and Poland: 'Derailed'
Argentina: 'This Girl is a Mess'
