Jean de Florette Love is one of the most important parts, if not the most important part of the movie. Jean de Florette is a love story for me, there is always a story of love in the whole movie. It is in love with France; when people talk about France, love is the first thing I think. In this movement, almost all characters have the idea of love. Jean de Florette is passionate about the life of this movie. When he spoke, he showed so many lives, and all the words he spoke as if this were his fate expressed this.
Because France relies heavily on past national identity, the classic texts of French 's greatest writers are often used as the basis for movies. In the past, in Jean de Florette, the landscape of Provence, the territory of the country, idealized the past in the country and shows that the French industry is confirming its will through its past representatives I will.
At the same time, Jean de Florette symbolizes the continuity of the French cinema, its central location is mainly in Paris and the south, and in many cases it is opposed to them. This movie focuses on past, past values, past problems, but this past is not a long way to go, it is a symbol of French national identity and this movie is through nostalgic global aesthetics We will strengthen. One point is to tend to idealize the geography of the past, the region and the country, and to participate in cultural demands of protectionism.
Essentially, Berry used this movie and emphasized that Provence is a French, cultural and historical region, representing all that the past and France can agree on. After Jean de Florette, the sequel to Manon des Sources came out. They shot them all in seven months. In the long run, they have done a lot of work to promote tourism in this area. It attracted international attention as the movie was very successful and stimulated the credibility of the French countryside. Well, the binary opposition is stated above, but that involves the concept of a movie in Paris. Paris, the capital city, love, art, and of course the city of the movies. To many people, Paris is exactly a symbol of France. Of course, it is a more international view, but it still maintains a position in French history and an important element of national culture.
The theme related to 'Jean de Florette' and 'Manon de Source' is fruit of jealousy and indignation. Another patriarch played by the old man Yves Montand is addicted to money, wealth and future generations. Decades ago, his own life had problems with his love His hope was fixed by a young cousin, came back from the army, seductive idiot that wished for good fortune by planting flowers It was. Together they plan to acquire a piece of land inherited by the sweet love hangback (Gerard Depardieu) who moved with his wife and children. Both movies are pursuing the value of a small village and greed for greed. At first, a greedy man cursed Spring ("source"), which seemed to help an idealist young husband, but he flushed each person until desperately to death did. His daughter saw these villains bounce back from spring at the end of the movie.
