I love it that you know so much about Pagnol's work as a writer and a director. I agree with you that his approach is "from the heart" and I can see why he strikes a chord with you. Did you know he and Albert Cohen met in school as children and remained friends all their lives?
I love this as well, and the love the philosophical idea of does the heart ever go out of fashion. Mais non! How fun and thoughtful this is! Merci beaucoup, mon ami!
I love this piece, Richard. I'm such an old romantic. And yes, life is where the heart is.
Thank you, Marilyn--from a fellow old romantic!
Brilliant! Thank you, merci bien, Richard, j'ai pas compris un mot mais. . . it was totally understandable anyway. And right, a great actor.
I'm so glad you liked it, Nancy.

No, I hadn't known that! I'm glad the Académie Française had the good sense to elect him--a filmmaker!
Yes! And Robbe-Grillet made it too. Surprising isn't it? The man who is now sitting in chair 25 (once Pagnol's chair) is an avid Putin supporter.

Thanks, Terry. I appreciate your words, as always.
