<![CDATA[This paper analyzes the nonverbal communication and cultural features of the Highest-Grossing Movies Among Selected ASEAN Countries. There are two approaches used in this study. First, it sought to identify the nonverbal communication features through semiotic analysis of the most important movie scenes, and second, it determined the cultural features of the movies through a readers-oriented approach. Through the analysis of the cultural features, ASEAN nations such as the Philippines, Malaysia, and Thailand share the same values such as the strong family ties. Also, the belief in the supernatural and superstition is evident in the stories. The non-verbal communication features analysis established that all of these movies portrayed different signs or symbols that can be traced and interpreted as part of their culture or norm. Thus, culture plays a significant element among the selected highest-grossing ASEAN films.]]>

<![CDATA[Intercultural competence (IC) is a salient element that EFL students should possess to communicate effectively and appropriately in today's world. (Byram, 1997) Scholars differed on what constitutes IC, however, there is somehow a consensus that an intercultural speaker is an individual that possesses intercultural knowledge, intercultural attitudes, and intercultural behaviors. Drawing on a long experience in Facebook, this paper discusses how we can utilize Facebook watch feature as a mobile technology tool to aid EFL learners in developing intercultural competence. Following an experience-driven research design, we relied on a digital auto-ethnography research approach to generate introspective data for analysis. We explained how exposure to Chewkz (Facebook content creator) storytimes and real-life roleplay videos could help the author develop their intercultural knowledge, skills, and attitudes. We speculate that similar results can be reproduced by adopting appropriate and convenient videos vis-Ã -vis the context. Indeed, we rejected 29 videos out of 43 because they had inappropriate content, which we believe does not serve our students' best needs and thus results in unfavorable results.]]>
