The only way for me to review this movie is an inventory à la Jacques Prévert:
-A reconstituted family.
-A funeral
-A philosophy professor,afraid to be transferred to the Provinces (Poitiers)
-A veggie who feels for the poor animals' stress in the slaughterhouse,soon to be joined by a young sympathizer.
-A young writer,who enjoys dancing in the dark.
-A small ad for "Savane' marble cake
-Shoplifting
-A whiff and love in the toilets (but it does not work)
-Wind pumps.
-The legend of the lost cows.
-Lots and lots of songs in English ,including the well-known French traditional "swing low sweet chariot'.
-A car which poses problems.
-Policemen who stop the car ,but fortunately are good friends with the late father .
-A part of a sermon and a settlement of scores in the church.
-A liberated priest :don't judge lest thou be judged "
-A good neighbor ,perhaps gay (the young couple giggles)
-The dead daddy's house where memories are lingering ,with plenty of grand piano and violins ,to enhance a moving atmosphere.
-One coffee too many and another settlement of scores.
-A high speed train to Pamplona.
-The return of the lost cows (see above)that replace the raccoons.
