HEARTWARMING FILM FOR A COLD WINTER

On TV 5 this winter, the film tells the story of a French working class group in 1936. It is charming and heartwarming, with a French flair that even if you need to read the subtitles you will appreciate greatly.

Gaby and Mado

The first paid holidays for the working class in France !! Gaby and Mado take her bicycle and ride through the campaign to a holiday camp at the seaside where we meet with other people and spend a good time. Les beaux jours is a comedy full of freshness, tenderness and humour . I like very much this film for the fine descriptionof this moments (the ride in bicycle,the nights in the camp,the story of the photographwho met Picasso, the manual work in the farm !! And finally the good performance of Clothilde Courau who is really a good actress.
