Yes, but one usage is less ambiguous than the other.
"French villages" - From two to all, with a bias to "many"
"Some French villages" - From two to less-than-all, with a strong bias toward a relatively small percentage.
Removing the word "some" very much changes how that title will be understood by a native English speaker. Except for me, because I've started to assume that this type of manipulation is the default and so whatever the title claims, the reality will be much less interesting or meaningful or profound.
