Mickey R @Mickey1 Dec 24 Any movie about set in Provence has a basic goodness. The story line is pretty good, the acting very real. Worth your evening view. See more Sharon M Sep 2 This movie is just delightful. Every bit as good as Jean de Florette and Manon de la Source. Incredible acting, especially of young Marcel. How well the writers captured the infatuation and the relationship with Lili, Marcel’s friend. The scene of the photograph had me laughing out loud. I loved it. So charming. See more Judith K @ziqiongmom 02/08/2025 Worth watching if you are a fan of French movies. It's a coming of age movie about a famous French director, Marcel Pagnol, set in the Provence hills outside of Marseille. This is where Marcel spent his summers. The location was clearly a part of his soul, since his movies were often located in the same general area. See more Aileen D 02/01/2025 This a charming film. A mémoire of Marcel Pagnol’s childhood in Provence. You could say it’s a remake of two earlier films. All are very good. It captures the dry limestone hills of Provence with its abundant life of insects, birds, and animals enjoyed by a young Marcel with his family on summer holidays. It expresses the French love of “le nature” - an idealized one that is nevertheless soothing to watch as this young boy explores the countryside with Lili, a stalwart companion skilled at the ways of the countryside, and when Marcel meets his first love.
