The purpose of this work is to explore new and effective ways of teaching English to students learning a foreign language, since the timeliness of the problem revealed in this article is explained by the high level of English language that potential professionals must have because of high competition in the context of globalization. The article presents an analysis of the feasibility and effectiveness of using an authentic feature film in teaching English to students. The methodological basis of the study includes an assessment of students' knowledge of a foreign language level; the stage of film assessment and the method of selecting a film for certain categories of students. This research also contains a list of practical tasks that can be applied in the process of watching and perception of an authentic feature film in a foreign language, and which are aimed at developing such language skills as oral speech and listening comprehension. The results of this study proved that teaching English to students through viewing the original text is one of the most effective methods, because it improves speech perception, the ability to reproduce speech, and also expands the vocabulary of students and makes their speech fluent. In addition, the study of English through watching foreign films has a huge impact on cultural views and knowledge of students about the country of the language being studied and about the world as a whole. Thus, this study demonstrates the high potential of using an authentic feature film in English classes for pedagogical science and methods of teaching English in general. The results of the work can be used for anyone interested in effective and modern ways of teaching and learning foreign languages.
