This paper proposes to use DTW to construct parallel corpora from difficult data. Parallel corpora are considered as raw material for machine translation (MT), frequently, MT systems use European or Canadian parliament corpora. In order to achieve a realistic machine translation system, we decided to use movie subtitles. These data could be considered difficult because they contain unfamiliar expressions, abbreviations, hesitations, words which do not exist in classical dictionaries (as vulgar words), etc. The obtained parallel corpora can constitute a rich resource to train decoding spontaneous speech translation system. From 40 movies, we align 43013 English subtitles with 42306 French subtitles. This leads to 37625 aligned pairs with a precision of 92.3%.
