5.0 out of 5 stars A Cinematic Treasure, July 4, 2009

By	Michael J. Glaubman "Physicist and History buff" (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Pagnol brings out the humanity of the people of Provence while telling the romance of Marius and Fanny. As cinematic art it brings out the power of a story in which the balance of love and cupidity of normal people affirms real life and the importance of goodness and tolerance. The scenery, the streets of 1920's Marseilles, etc. are priceless. The middle one, Fanny, is probably the best, but the whole is more than the sum of its parts.

These are three adult films, by which I mean true-to-life, emotionally demanding and mercurial, funny and sad together, intellectually stimulating, uncontrived. The acting is gold plated and the dialogue unfailingly witty and original. The story of love unrequited, set in pre-war Marsailles (the docks form a wonderful backdrop to the story) is justly hailed as one of the great achievements of cinema - for any age.
