In rural Provence, Jean de Florette inherits some seemingly unprofitable land, but the dastardly Papet is eager to con the land from him.

Carnations??!

4 stars

18 Oct 2018

I really like watching old films and films in other languages. Subtitles don’t bother me because you get used to them after a few minutes, and if you’re learning French, or Spanish, or German, it’s a really fun way to revise.

This film is a classic so a lot of people say. It’s quite slow to build up the story and tension but when the emotion hits you feel like the carpet has been pulled out from under you. And this is only part 1! I need to see part 2 to see how it ends.
