We watched this film today. After making Susan watch Red Dawn I thought I would choose something more up her street. We have this and the follow up Manon Des Sources in a Claude Berri box set that our son bought us. We wanted Germinal but it was cheaper to buy the box rather than buy singulary. But they are great films. Almost too good. It is quite depressing watching the villainous Soubeyrans do their evil deeds, it borders on the unwatchable as they, posing as friends, make their plans. But great cinema.
