Jean De Florette Review: Part 1

The characters in this movie are extremely interesting though I do feel that I could type cast them with little effort. The storyline is interesting because it's different. I don't think I've seen greed and scheming displayed in such a realistic and normal context. I understand that the movie is a french movie and expect the ending to be sad. I expect little from this movie in terms of surprising plot twists or character development. However, I am enjoying the portrayals of characters and settings; it shows me the attitude and mindset of the French.
