Product: Jean de Florette (1987)
Rating: 5.0
Definitely worth watching, although the lesser of two parts.
Although new to French Cimema, this film has introduced me to some wonderful acting and cinematography. The set is impressive and the music is memorable.Having watched Jean de Florette first, I believe it warrants five stars of it's own accord. Manon des Sources is far superior, but there aren't many films that hold a candle to Manon, foreign language or otherwise.I certainly agree that this has to be seen to appreciate Manon. With these two films being one of the rarities in film making, where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
