User review:

This film is simply beautiful. Loaded with emotion. Marcel Pagnol’s story as a kid growing up in Southern France.

This is a film I saw for the first time about 10 years ago. 10 years later, I enjoyed it even more. Yves Robert makes you care for characters. Philippe Caubère is brilliant as the father, who’s a teacher. The truly beautiful Nathalie Roussel: the caring mother and wife. Young Julien Ciamaca gives a strong performance as Marcel. And what about Didier Pain: I just love his way of playing Oncle Jules.

Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of this movie is to make you travel to this part of the world, to make you feel that you’re there when the story unfolds.

Director: Yves Robert
Writers: Louis Nucéra, Marcel Pagnol (novel)
Stars: Philippe Caubère, Nathalie Roussel, Didier Pain

    It’s a beautiful film and upbeat, with some insights into human nature. A little bit of nudity, but overall , a very good family movie.

    This little heart-tugger is a reflection of memories of a young boy who spent his summers in the hills of Provence. The film is simple but beautiful. It depicts a warm and loving family, big achievements, and small adventures. This is not an action-packed movie. It is a collage of beautiful childhood memories. The storytelling is excellent. The scenery is gorgeous. The music score is fantastic. It comes together like pure poetry. This is a true masterpiece. I highly recommend it. I also understand that it has a sequel called “My Mother’s Castle”. I have not seen it yet. But you can be sure I will be on the lookout for it.
