Abstract
This research investigates the role of movies and TV series in enhancing
vocabulary acquisition and listening skills through the lens of cognitive load theory.
The paper analyzes the efficacy of subtitle usage in the retention of idiomatic
expressions. Findings emphasize that audio-visual integration significantly improves
long-term memory recall and phonological loop development in foreign language
acquisition. By examining the intersection of entertainment and education, this study
highlights how cinematography serves as a "multi-modal" bridge for L2 learners.
