Having read (and loved) Alain Fournier's brilliant novel at school, some years later I was excited to see the film was being shown with English subtitles at a specialist cinema. We made the effort to get along there, and we weren't disappointed.

It captured the dream-like, mysterious and slightly surreal quality of the novel very well. My wife, who wasn't already familiar with the novel, was enthralled by the movie.

The atmosphere of rural Provence at the turn of the century pervades the movie as it does the novel, too.

Like the book, a masterful exploration of the twilight world of youth and first love.

I'm not normally a lover of film romances, but come on, somebody - release this movie on DVD for us !
