The trilogy is a must. Almost as sentimental as the worst Hollywood can bring up, but it explain the very heart and soul of the Provence. And played, boy, played so good. I bet it would make you cry even this films are....old, but not dated.
Not my only one! In fact there are quite a few, like Raimu, Jouvet, Gabin ( can be very good ) and so on....
Sir Alec Guiness loved him, so do I. Even if his position was not so clear in the last war. Sometimes you make an exception. He was the " grand seigneur " of the French Cinema, His presence and his voice were beyond good and bad.
Tomorrow, when my head will be cleare I shall post more on him. Now after too many Champagne ( Soccer end play...) I can´t.
