Aro Recommended Marius et Jeannette

Dir. Robert Guediguian
In French with English subtitles
Rating: [M]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama / Romance

Feat. Ariane Ascaride, Gerard Meylan

 

Aroview: A laidback yet buoyant slice-of-ordinary-life set on the low-rent side of Marseille, where two wounded fortysomethings strike up a hesitant relationship that is encouraged into something deeper by her convivial neighbours. Heralding the importance of emotional richness over material wealth, it echoes a socialist romanticism that was key to the work of the great French author, Marcel Pagnol. The film is similarly a humble triumph.
