George,
Here is the best multilingual dictionary on the web:
http://www.wordreference.com/
It is based on the excellent Collins dictionaries, translates english to
french, german, spanish and italian, and is extensive enough to find you
terms like "chiaroscuro."
If you are translating, you might want to look there first before consulting
the more specialized (albeit rather _thin_) resources of home-grown projects
like the snafu.de site.
Good luck,
Matt Niednagel

Subject: Seeking Multilingual Glossary
Not exactly film and philosophy but I figure no one is more likely to
have an asnwer than you folks -- I'm looking for a glossary or
dictionary of film terms for other languages besides English. My primary
concerns are French and Spanish, although the more the merrier.
Either on-line, hard copy or both.
Any suggestions?
