Marcel Pagnol's: My Mother's Castle - Film by Yves Robert (VHS, 1990) PAL

Description: Marcel Pagnol's: My Mother's Castle - Film by Yves Robert (VHS, 1990) PAL. The VHS tape is still sealed and never used. "Whatever the interval that separates one's viewing of MY FATHERS GLORY from the equally enchanting MY MOTHERS CASTLE, it is only an intermission. This latter film, the second by Yves Robert based on the childhood of popular playwright and filmmaker Marcel Pagnol, picks up effortlessly from where its predecessor left off. The hills of Provence still exert a magical attraction for the family of Marcel (Julien Ciamaca), a schoolboy who counts the days, minutes and hours that are spent at the family's pastoral retreat. They will seem no less alluring to the viewer. This second film, like the first, is raised to the heights of voyeuristic pleasure by countless family feasts, happy occasions, warm smiles and intoxicating memories. Freshly baked breads are the size of skateboards. Children always appear in crisply starched clean clothes, even in the country, and their mother never looks the least bit overworked. Marcel's father shaves outdoors, looking into a mirror hung from a tree, humming to himself as he surveys the hills of his beloved countryside. MY MOTHER'S CASTLE, a film that is all banquets and bouquets, concentrates as fully on life's smaller joys as on its larger ones, and does so with the kind of panache that has already charmed much of France" - THE NEW YORK TIMES Starring: Philippe Caubere, Nathalie Roussel, Didier Pain and Therese Liotard.
