Marius, César's son, owner of the Bar de la Marine, is torn between his love for Fanny, the little shellfish merchant, and his desire to take the rush, to travel the world... When Marcel Pagnol, in 1929, had Marius performed on a Parisian stage, he probably had no idea that his characters would become as famous as Harpagon or Monsieur Jourdain. Two years later, Pagnol and Alexander Korda made a film out of it, Raimu, Charpin, Orane Demazis, Pierre Fresnay reprised their roles, and the film immortalized them. They will go around the earth.... "When you speak to me in that tone, when you look at me as if I were a scoundrel... I'm not saying I'm going to cry, no, but morally, you're breaking my heart. " Marcel Pagnol was a French novelist, playwright, and filmmaker. In 1946, he became the first filmmaker elected to the Académie Française.
