Abstract
Foreign films have long been used in English Language Teaching (ELT) and been proved effective in improving learners’ linguistic competence. Cultivating Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) has gradually become a vital goal in English Language Teaching (ELT). However, whether foreign films can be used to improve learners’ ICC is less researched. Taking Byram’s ICC model, this paper tends to show foreign films can also be effective in improving learners’ ICC. This article reports an empirical study designed to explore the processes students engage in when viewing Disney film Mulan in a Chinese college classroom. Students’ study blogs, quizzes, and interviews are major research data and the analysis of the data illustrated foreign films’ role in cultivating learners’ ICC and explored the mental process of students’ interpretation of foreign films.
