Film has been used widely as a resource in second and foreign language classrooms-mainly for the teaching of listening and speaking skills -and some have argued that it represents a useful resource for teaching pragmatics. Film is also an essentially unexplored potential resource for research on discourse and pragmatics. A central issue in the use of film for language teaching and research is that of validity: how well does film language represent the ways that people actually talk? This paper examines a corpus of compliments and compliment responses excerpted from forty American feature films, comparing their realization to naturally-occurring data from the available speech act literature. Results indicate that film language appears to be most representative of naturally-occurring speech from a pragmalinguistic perspective-particularly where major categories such as syntactic formula in compliments is concerned-and less so in terms of sociopragmatics.
