Jean de Florette &

In my opinion the movie Jean de Florette and Manon de la Source are very good, different for sure but very good. In Jean de florette, ugolin and Cesar were looking for land to plant carnattions but on their try to buy a pice of land a man is killed and the land is inherited by Jean. Cesar and his nephew make Jean believe the land is worth nothing, and that there is no water. Ugolin tries convincing him to go to the city and have the educated and nice life he deserves. Secretly ugolin and cesar block the water so Jean woul never find it. In the try if finding water he dies when a rock hits him in the head after an explosion. Minutes after he dies Cesar and ugolin find te source and celebrate Jeans dead when manon is present.

Manon de la Source was a very good movie in my opinion, although it was very depressing. In this movie, Manon lives in the hills taking care of sheep quite out there from her fathers dead. Ugolin who is still alive believes he is in love with her and does all in his hands to make her fall in love with him., to get to the point to leave a little percent on his right side. Sadly, Manon falls in love with the new teacher in town. Angry, after listening to people in town talking about their knowledgeable about the water on her fathers property makes her look for revenge. Once Ugolin decides to confess his love for her in public, she accuses him of killing her dad. Ugolin realizes he will never have the chance to be with her, so he commits suicide. Time passes and Manon marries the teacher, and one of Florettes friends comes to town, telling Cesar about Florettes pregnancy, and how Jean was his son. Cesar cant bare the pain, leaving all his things to Manon and soon after dies.

This movie is so tragic and sad.

Est ce que vous le film? J'aime le film parceque c'est dramatique, triste et surprenant.
Je m'appelleras Manon de la Nuit.
