Sumario:[ES]This Master’s Dissertation explores the benefits of cinema in the teaching of English as a foreign language. The application of films in the EFL classroom can be considered a motivating pedagogical tool that provides an authentic or fairly authentic use of the English language. Besides, films incorporate a great number of varieties of English in real life situations that help students to learn more about the target language and the countries and cultures where it is spoken, thus developing students’ cultural and intercultural competence. In this sense, the film The Lion King, which is the base of the didactic unit of this project, proves quite useful for teaching English in the context of Secondary education.
