I saw this movie a long time ago. I viewed it again with wife in Prime Video as a part of our review of some movies with Provence theme before our trip there soon.. We both enjoyed it greatly. Like many Marcel Pignol's works, a French classic, it is enjoyed and loved by all French. If you speak some French, it is easy to understand the dialog although there is some Provencial accent in them. Too bad its sequel, Manon des Sources, is not available for view at the moment. <addendum> Although Manon des Sources is not available for rental streaming, I could buy a Bluray box (2 disks) containing both films for only $15 at Amazon. I highly recommend to buy this Bluray. Both are filmed in Provence near Vaugines, about 10 minutes east of the famous market town Lourmarin. Vaugines made news a few months ago as the last secret residence of Peter Mayles of the "A Year in Provence" fame. He was so hounded by fans, journalists and other strangers at his first house near Menerbes, he moved away to the US. Some years later, upon returning to Provence, his village of residence was kept a real secret. It was only after his death in early 2018, the words seeped out that his secret mansion was between Vaugines and Lourmarin.

This beautifully filmed and acted masterpiece must be seen with its companion film and conclusion of the story, Manon of the Springs, to be fully appreciated. Although each film stands on its own, it is the full story that they, combined, tell that makes the experience of the film so profound. It is a crime that they are not offered together. The story of greed and deception, of cruel avarice leading to tragic consequences, is further enhanced in the terrible irony and effect of mistakes and devastating secrets revealed in the second film. However, this film is complete in telling the first part of the story as we watch a kind and humane man, albeit naive, the Jean of the title (Depardieu) undone by two neighbors (Montand & Autielle) who covet his farmland. Jean's desperation and anguish as he struggles to keep his dream alive is achingly conveyed by Depardieu in a brilliant performance. The two films also gave that old master, Yves Montand, one last magnificent role to cap his career. He is simply wonderful as a shrewd and coldly calculating patriarch, his lazily sly eyes bitterly amused by his manuevers, setting in motion events that will reverberate and return to him in ways he could not possibly fathom. It is so rich and full a performance, that spans both films, that you will be surprised by your different emotions about this man. Montand's work here should not be missed by anyone who loves great acting. He is ably matched by Daniel Autielle as his torn, sad, and conflicted nephew. Directed with great care and beautifully filmed in the countryside of southern France, Jean de Florette is a fine film by itself. But, when seen with Manon of the Springs, the two together make a masterpiece of the consequences of cruelty and greed. Let's hope they get Manon on DVD and box them together. 4 stars each, 5 together.

I lived in Southern France for a year, and while I was not affected by the deep suspicion and resentment of foreigners there (I did not own property), I had a close British friend who was driven out because she had bought a house near Sigoules. She was a retired teacher, lived alone, and her neighbors terrorized her for two years. They hung her cat by the rafters in her barn. They shot guns off on her balcony in the middle of the night. They clipped all the blossoms off her flowering garden. They poured bleach on her vegetable patch. All this happened about a year after this movie was made. I remember my friends daughter telling her mother to move because she had just seen this film. In this movie, the man who is terrorized by his neighbors, who finally dies, is merely a Parisian, not even a foreigner! But to the local farmers, he is a threat from the big city. I can't wait to see the sequel in which his daughter takes revenge, "Manon of the Springs," which for some reason, is not available to rent on Amazon. Why make the first part of the sequel available, and not the second?

A wonderful film from the novel by Marcel Pagnol; but alas, it is only part 1!. At the end of the film there is a notification that it is the end of part 1. So that suggests there should be part 2. But, this next film is not to be found on Amazon Prime. I checked out the titles "Manon of the Spring," which would be the logical choice for part 2, but this is not available on Amazon. If there is a different title that I should be searching for I wish someone would suggest it to me. At the end of this film, the young daughter, Manon, witnesses the 2 evil neighbors unplugging the spring on the property. The knowledge of this spring was kept hidden from her parents by the 2 neighbors; and this spring could have saved her father's life and also the family if they had known about it.

This is the first of a two-movie set. The second film is Manon des Sources (Manon of the Spring). I watched this as part of a French language class (fortunately with subtitles!). The story is of a gentleman that tries to grow flowers and crops in a valley. Others did not want what they perceived as a different-class individual in their midst, and they dammed up the flow of water, effectively putting him out of business and leading to his demise. Film two is his daughter, Manon's response to these less-than-friendly neighbors. The acting is well done, the scenery beautiful, and by the end, the viewer feels vindicated.
