PROVENCE's scenery does exist, but the tune is too American, fast-paced and superficial.
I don’t know if Old Peter participated in the creation of this movie, probably not.
You can hardly find the innocent and romantic country feeling created by the novel.
Moreover, there is a plot that does not seem to be explained clearly: the secret of the wine that the beard deliberately hides, and then there is no more? There are clues throughout the novel. Maybe the film is not well translated, and some of the subtitles don't have the same lips.
