"Angele"
1934
Directed by Marcel Pagnol

Considered by many to be the finest work of Marcel Pagnol, the film's innovative use of location shooting is an important precursor to neo-realism. Angele combines a melodramatic story of a young girl's seduction, betrayal and redemption by true love with the naturalist settings of Provence. Based on Jean Giono's novel, Un de Baumugnes. With Fernandel, Orane Demazis. French with English subtitles.
150 minutes.
